Inside Belarus: Putin's Puppet Regime | Documentary
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 тра 2023
- They share a common ideology and vision of totalitarian power yet reportedly, Vladimir Putin and Alexander Lukashenko hate each other. As popular opposition in Belarus and the war in Ukraine force them closer and closer together, we examine the relationship between these two men. We also look back at Lukashenko’s rise to power and hear from some of the protestors brave enough to oppose him. Filmed undercover in Belarus in the weeks up to and just after the invasion of Ukraine.
From her exile in Lithuania, a mother recounts how the KGB came looking for her four-year-old son. When a video of Victor attending a protest was seen on social media, the KGB sent photos of him to every kindergarten in Minsk asking the teachers to identify him. They escaped in time but Victor’s father was arrested and imprisoned for attending the same protest. Also in prison is Daria’s husband, Igor, an independent journalist who ran an information channel on the internet. Although he never overtly criticised the regime, he was still given a 15 year prison sentence.
It was the grounding of a Ryan Air flight to arrest journalist Roman Protasevich that provoked stiff sanctions from Europe. In retaliation, Lukashenko lured tens of thousand of refugees from the Middle East and sent them towards Poland. When people started dying in the sub zero temperatures, he blamed Europe and went to play ice hockey with Vladimir Putin. It was a public sign of support from the Kremlin for a man they are bound to support.
Without Russia’s aid, the 2020 popular protests would probably have ended Lukashenko’s regime. In return, Lukashenko has not only allowed Russia to station troops in Belarus, a recently held referendum also links the consolidation of his power with military support for Russia. It enables Lukashenko to stay in power until 2035 and Belarus to host Russian nuclear weapons. The Kremlin knows that any replacement would likely be pro-Western. Svetlana Tikhanovskaya, Belarus’ President-in-Exile, has promised to cut the links with the Kremlin and denounced the invasion of Ukraine. From her base in Vilnius, she tells how she is trying to prevent her country becoming a Russian proxy and how opposition figures abroad are constantly targeted.
In Belarus, everyone knows they live under constant surveillance, ruled by a government that has lost its legitimacy and governs through force. The fear is that if Ukraine loses the war, its fate could be the same.

I am British, I have been to Minsk many times. If you start political agitation etc then yes you will get into trouble. Apart from that it is a totally normal city , as a tourist you won't be bothered. The Belarusian people are some of the kindest I have ever met. Minsk as well is a fantastic city to visit.
This documentary was financed by the CIA etc...total propaganda
@@scottgleeson4905 they said " can we walk the capital as foreign tourists without being followed" .... it is the safest city I have visited in my life.
It's safe because the people are terrified to jaywalk because of the governments severe punishments and reputation.
@@igotanM16 I'm guessing you haven't been there ?
@@igotanM16 not really... because there's no blacks or muslims in the country lol

How Belarus is "one of the most isolated countries" when its open to the citizens of 74 countries visa free?
Because no one from those 74 countries is interested in travelling there
😂😂😂
Isolated for citizens, it looks 'open' for tourists. And yes, Lukashenko created this image of a 'free country,' but it's not the reality.
8:27 - "But it is impossible to know, if the network is monitored."
Not just in Belarus. Everywhere in the world.
agreed, but there is a huge difference between countries like Belarus, Russia and China compared with the USA, France, the UK and the Netherlands in the consequences for the people that are "monitored" on the internet networks...
in a country like the Netherlands you can criticise the government as much as you like/want without being snatched of the streets and locked up as "an enemy of the state" like it is happening in Belarus and countries like that. in the Netherlands you are going to be arrested if you promote terrorism and extreme hate speech towards people that oppose your way of thinking, which i am totally ok with. i can expres my political vieuws on the internet whenever i feel like it without having to fear that the (secret) police will be knocking on my door in a few hours, only when i incite violence they will come to make me stop doing that kind of shit...

Lol, you guys always harp on about Assange. Never mind the fact that he's a single individual who fled to a foreign embassy rather than go through the legal process. Comparing him to the millions of ordinary Belarusians who can't access information over the net without fear of persecution. You're a joke. @@banderu-na-gilaku-dv4rl6vr1o
Its hilarious that some guy with five or six different accounts is running around the comments section trying to tell everybody he moved to Belarus from America a couple months ago and its the absolute best place he has ever been. That Lukashenko is such a baller and that as long as you arent "looking for trouble" no one in Belarus ever gets into trouble there! Absolute genius this one is!

Documentaries like this one is a grim reminder that freedom and democracy are fragile and should never be taken for granted and be protected at all cost!
And yet, people here in the USA are all too eager to give up their rights for security. We see it all the time, from people who want certain speech criminalized to the ones who want private firearm ownership banned to the ones who think cops should be able to search or look anywhere at their discretion because “I have nothing to hide”.
Yes. The Left is surprisingly censor happy and questionable use of the judiciary as a political tool is on the rise.....

I grew up in Kharkiv, Ukraine.
My best friend in school had a Belarusian mother and a Ukrainian dad. Her parents got divorced and eventually in 2013 the mom took her to Belarus to live with the grandmother.
My parents tried to talk them out of it because the writing was on the wall about lukashenko, but they didn't listen.
We kept in touch over the years.
She got a visit from the police in April 2022 for liking my posts on Instagram about the war and sending messages to me. We have agreed to speak in Telegram only in a chat that wipes out all messages every 24 hours.
It's truly bizarre there.
Correction for you: "the defender of the motherland" holiday is on February 23rd. Not 24th. So I have no idea why you made this connection to the invasion.

It's crazy on both sides. What do you think would happen if you started liking pro-Russian messages in Ukraine or spreading them? The Kiev regime wouldn't have mercy

Besides rampant alcohol abuse it was peaceful.
Police were a rare sight and crime was nearly non-existent.
protest never happened. Nobody, ever was detained. Police is non existent. So true!!!!
Imagine getting threatened by a mere child.
Shows you the true "strength" of these "strongmen," doesn't it? They don't act like that because they're scared of no one, but because they're scared of literally everyone but project their fear onto their subjects so the dictator doesn't have to deal with it themselves. It's the same with all authoritarians in the end.

08:07 says that 'like in any police state the owner needs to take a picture of the passport' which is probably true in context of Belarus today, but never the less, taking picture of passports as a part of the check-in process, specially in private apartments are normal and common throughout European Union
Common in Thailand.
It's pretty fucking scary. It smacks of a totalitarian state.
Yes you're true. That's obligatory for the whole EU , for airbnb and hotels. Usually hotels collects their data before but airbnb are like freelance so they are obligated to do that and presented periodically. I'm from Spain and that's common here.

I was a student in Grodno Belarus and I would love to say that a lot of the bad things that have been said about Belarus are not actually true. the people are friendly, food is cheap compared to other EU countries, movement is free and not monitored as being speculated, the only minus is the leadership and in recent times there have been major modernization of the major cities like Minsk, Grodno, vitebsk, mogilev and others and the country is now more open to tourists than before.

Socialism is entirely different. Usually linked with democratic forms of government…. learn the difference, it’s important.

@@Dikkeganzenclub you know that's not true, wappie
@@nobbynobbs8182 I know it IS true and if you don't than that's on you. If you were more familiar with how things go in American and European academic circles, you'd be aware of the consequences people face when they voice an opinion that isn't politically correct. In England and the US, academics have been cast out for stating that a woman is a woman and not a man and that biology matters. In Finland someone got a criminal process for reading from a Bible ("inciting hatred"). In the Netherlands, Christian teachers get fired from "Christian" schools for being Christian. In short, you either haven't seen it yet (which would make you not the sharpest tool in the shed) or you know it's happening and are acting in bad faith, covering up and defending this system of backwards censorship.
I am Polish.
We have many political refugees from Belarus in our country.
We even have a TV program runned by the Belarusian opposition.
I think its called Biełsat.
The antennas are located near the border to give the Belarusians an opportunity to watch free worlds TV.
It's dangerous but many Belarusians watch it to confront their media with the free media from europe.
It's the same situation like West and East Germany during the cold war.
It's Belsat. Not a TV programm, but a whole separate TV channel within TVP network which broadcasts strictly in Belarusian. And that's a pretty reliable source, I've used to watch it since 2014 I believe.
Also comparison between West and East Germany actually fits here. Not sure if I ever heard it, but it's quite similar. It is one of the most protected yet one of the uncalmest borders in Europe. It even has a wall, thou this time it were built on the Western side.

Interesting yet somewhat disturbing report. Overall, nicely done but I have real concerns about the health and welfare of Darla and her family. While I recognize her bravery for speaking out against the president and meeting with the journalists, I suspect this documentary made its way to the Belarusian KGB. I would really like to know what became of her.
I agree. It's risky to put local people in a film like this. I do like the documentary, but I feel like that might not have been the most ethical choice.

It’s like watching a documentary about Venezuela. Opposite countries geographically, with no culture similarities except for one thing: Similar if not the same regime.
What are you talking about. Venezolean economy is 90% private. What's similar is that the opposition consists of irresponsible people and outright putchists. I mean, even the US have forgotten about their friend Guaido. Cichanovskaya accuses Lukashenko of running a self-proclaimed government but does pretty much the same in Vilnius. Her "government" consist of people she and her friends got into the "cabinet" Bankrolled by the EU. These clowns have literal cabinet meetings every single day, How idiotic.
you can easily destroy any country with global sanctions and embargoes, like poor victim Venezuela, which only fail is that it has crudes. Everything is about crudes. Are you blind not to see?
Yes....
Ну только что тут нет collectivos, которые убиваю несогласных, но тут своя политическая полиция которая отправляет в тюрьму людей на долгие сроки тюремного заключения😢
Wow, I love seeing people that are so obviously propagandized thinking they know what other countries are actually like, it's fascinating.
This is amazing
wherever you are in this world the internet is strictly monitored so there is no shock here and their internet is free to use
If Belarus gets involved with boots on the ground in Ukraine, then NATO has no reason not to do the same
You're a nut
Nato has been doing a lot with no success and still there will be no defferent. Russia will continue humiliating them as always
Lol, u said the truth - “NATO has no reason” to do the same
Why would NATO respond if none of its member states are being attacked? Besides, Belarus is already involved by allowing the Russian military in their country on the Ukrainian border.
@@cun7us NATO is already involved by supplying an invaded country with mean to resist the occupying force. Unfortunately Russia is a lot bigger and powerful than the Ukraine and needs the help. If NATO leaves Russia to do what's it's doing and wins, what country is next? There will be another.
As far as NATO not physically being attacked ,the countries on Russias hit list surrounding Ukraine are NATO countries, moldovia, Hungary, Poland, Romaini, Slovakia. , Lithuania, Latvia. Anyone of these could be next.
One of Putin's ideas for attacking was to stop Ukraine from becoming a NATO Allie,where does it stop ? Back to cold war territories?
Lukashenko is a cruel tyrant, but it is the Belarusian police maintaining him with Russia as back up. Belarusian cruelty to their fellow countrymen 😢. Like East German border guards.
Lukashenko is not a bad guy. Western media makes him appear so evil. In actuality, he had kept Belarus in a state of economic prosperity. After the fall of the ussr he made sure Belarus didn’t spiral into extreme poverty like the rest of the eastern bloc. People should look up and read “the last soviet republic”. The color revolution in Belarus just like the one in ukraine was funded openly by the CIA with western corporate interests in mind
@@AMultipolarWorldIsEmerging What prosperity? You talk from your ass? Have you seen official numbers? Stop drinking gas.
@@AMultipolarWorldIsEmerging Not convinced.
Police are the same everywhere.
LIES
I have been more afraid on the "french" streets than on those of Eastern Europe.
Belorussia look like a fine country to live in, cheap and peaceful!
Yes it truly is. Nice people, beautiful country and - surprise - freedom. Yes, that’s right. Go to Minsk and visit Belarus and take your own conclusions, you will be surprised.
@@masterofgame6847 🤣🤣🤡🤡
@@JuicyTobacco I suppose you are Belarusian or been there many times, yes?
@@JuicyTobaccoI bet Minsk is safer than Chicago. I'm from Texas and I wouldn't be scared to go to Minsk, but I would never go to San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Detroit, etc. Pretty much any big blue city.
@@jakev4191 Sure, it's "safer" as long as you're willing to give away your freedom, and not speak against the Russian occupation in Belarus, and against bloodthirsty parasites like Lukashenko and Putin.
I'm Belarusian, born and raised in Minsk city. One of the cleanest and safest places on earth. I haven't watched this documentary. The title speaks for itself, I don't want to lose my precious time on this piece of propaganda. Just for those who is really curious I'd like to say that our so called dictatorship is WAY better than your so called democracy. As for Russia, it's our neighbour, ally and more than that it's our MOTHERLAND the same as BelaRUS! Russians are our brothers! Live your lives and let us live ours!
Lol many Belarusian don’t agree whit you 😂
then don't invade other countries.
Planting puppet government's, organising coups , applying sanctions on countries that results in poverty and many more deaths than the rolling tank in ukrain is just as much an invasion .
Love from Serbija braco ❤
@@ernststavrosblofeld366 Скажи это Америке.
I’ve been angry with Belarus for supporting and helping Putin with his Ukraine invasion BUT this video has shown me the people want their leader out of office more than even the Russians want Putin out.,.. I pray tht their leader iis taken out of power !
Да люди одинаковые, поверьте. Все хотят мира и дружить с соседями. Но есть политика...
Angry with Belarus, aren't we all
Powerful
Powerful western propaganda, yes
What a great documentary.
How can a country be totally cut off from the western world like u say but there are still companies like KFC, macdonalds, Dominos Pizza, Hilton Hotels, Marriott Hotels?
Finally someone who thinks! Because this is a bad propaganda film filled with untruths and completely biased.
They’re franchises
@@Anglo_Browza Yes which means that the country is still influenced?? just like germany and france are influenced by U.S.A. and their companies....
@@smokeyshepherdgaming7082 no, means each business independent
Because they are hypocrites, they talk shit about the West all the time, but at the same time love Western stuff.
Think of Russians and Belarussians as temper tantrum kids in adult bodies.
Apparently asking someone for a lighter and telling someone you're a tourist is political talk.
Well foreigners are required to check their passport’s in reception in every motel/hotel in Poland during 90’s . I don’t know if that practice is still required after 2002 and now in 2023. Since I came to United States in 2002 not long after 9/11 terrorist attack.
Why can't I save this video to watch later?
Every country has the right to deverlop as it sees fit. Not in accordance with any other wealthy individuals, country or bloc of nations who think they have 'all the answers'. Let Belarus decide what's best, for itself. Especially if that's not best for anybody else. That being said, the West has too much invested to just let that happen. Anywhere.
Balls of steel on the journalists!
Nobody is allowed into the country but we posed as foreign tourist! 🙄
Internet in france is strictly monitored by the french police
For the last week, to ensure the riots stop 🙄
Belarus might have a problem 🤔 Poland 🇵🇱 might have something to say about it 😊
Poland is USA puppet. Zero power on their own
Can you do one on Ukraine, USA's puppet regime?
uh oh someone is upset that Ukraine rejected Russia? 🥺 Here, here dont cry
gonna cry putler ?
@@ernststavrosblofeld366You make me live Putin more
Great documentary, thank you
“U.S. accusations directed at others are always a projection of its own failures and wrongdoing.”
True.
Yeah sure Botsky, take your rubles.
A Tyrant's power is your complacency. When you act, you take their power from them. Unfortunately history shows us that freedom has always come at a cost, you must be willing to become a martyr, for your blood will further feul the fire of rebellion.
Fuck becoming a martyr! You can fight against a tyrant without killing yourself in the process.
