Your map is wrong. Crimea is not part of Ukraine for 10 years. The citizens of Crimea are Russians for 10 years. No Ukrainian authority has something to say there for 10 years. And still you claim it is Ukrainian? You know the war right now happening there happens because of guys like you 😂.

As something of a lifelong European history buff, I have always considered Belarus a fragment of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Along with Poland, Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, several of these in the area. In fact it was about the dead center of it in the 1600s. Some may disagree lol but hey its my party.
This is a good question indeed Belarus is maybe the least known from all the countries from the ussr in europe and in these days they follow whatever russia orders, making their independence just a mere formality, they're a russian province in all but name
So by your logic all the nato countries are American part because they follow Americans in doing whatever war crime they order them to do ? Putin take advice from Belarusian President, Belarus Russian and Ukrainian are same people. And Whenever Russia get invaded the invader always take a detour to commit genocide in Belarus too. So this is why both are close

We Greeks too have far more in common with Russia than with the west. This is why Serbs, Bulgarians and Greeks are so supportive of Russia.

Mind your own business. Maybe help your farmers, who are clearly unhappy? Your country is literally ran by a ethnic German - Tusk, whose ancestors served in SS.
The answer is this: chronology of Belarus: Rus (980-1190) => GDL (1240-1569) => PLC (1569-1795) => Russian Empire(1795-1917). 555 years of Lithuania+Poland vs 122 years of Russia. So, 555 vs 122. During this 555 years, enough differences have formed on the territory of Belarus so that it does not feel like a common part with Russia. And 122 years as part of Russia could not change anything. Belarusians remembered the glorious times of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and wanted their own state.
@@red_red3743 that doesn't really matter much. The Belarusians often do identify with the Grandduchy of Lithuana. The Pahonia (Пагоия) used between 1991 and 1995, when Belarus tried to show it's own culture instead of essentially restoring the Belarusian SSR's symbols, literally was also used by the Grandduchy of Lithuana. A symbol often used by true Belarusians instead of the Lukachenko bs.

Black Ruthenia wasn't the territory under Mongol occupation! It was the pagan mixed border with Lithuania, compared to the White Ruthenia Ruthenia already christianized, and it still exists nowadays and vaguely corresponds to the Grodno region.
The origins of those 'colorful' names of different regions of Rus/Ruthenia are unclear. If I recall, some suspect it was an influence of the Mongols and the associations they had with colors in their culture.
Love your work but you didn't fully answer the question and left out a lot of key insights. Lukashenko was angling to run for President of Russia in 1999 as Yeltsin's health was declining, only for Putin's ascendance to scupper his plans. In addition, Lukashenko has pushed and pulled Belarus towards Russia's orbit to varying degrees based on his own agenda and maintaining his own power. There's much more to be said about the subject. Still, great work on the historical background!
@@eatmorenachos no worries. There have been a few diplomatic and trade disputes between the two countries in the past as well. I find it's an oversimplification to call Belarus simply a Russian vassal; Lukashenko has his own ambitions, though he's been boxed into a corner now and has no choice but to ally with Russia.
Very poor narration. You missing toons of episodes very important ones which acctually lead to certain points in time and you skipped tons of information about Kiev Rus how Bialorus and Big part of today Ukraine acctually was very strong part of Polish Lithuanian commonwealth for hundreds of years etc.
@@hybridarmyoffreeworld What all of you guys are forgetting, is that this "video" is aimed, largely toward an American audience, and American's aren't that "well educated" when it comes to international affairs, and foreign relations and geography in general. For example, if you were to show the average American a map of the World and ask him to "point out Iraq for me please", I guarantee that less than 70% would get it right. And it's even worse when it comes to somewhere like Vietnam. The numbers go up to more than 80%, particularly among younger people. They think that both "Africa" and "Europe" are individual Countries. Almost unbelievable.
They're practically one country anyway. Flights from Moscow and Minsk for example is considered local flight and not need passports. Citizens of either countries can study and work in each other's territory just as EU citizens do in other EU countries.
@@darkmatter5424 Can't agree with you. 1) Where have you found that info about flights? You cross a border between 2 countries. You need your passport anyway. May be you meant russian "international passport" (idk is it an accurate name), what they use for international travelling. I don't think it means anything. It was made like that mostly because belorussians don't have separated international passport, to equalise russian and belorussian citizens. Belorussians need their passports to cross russian border, and Russian need either internal or "international" passports to cross belorusian border 2) I literally just finished my university course about law and institutions of EU, and during my studies I personally noticed that it is a suitable example.
cos belarus is still a republic of ussr in united nations 1945, and russia is ussr again in united nations 1945 they just changed their name, same with ukraine its still republic of ussr 1945, but kazahstan did everything right and its in united nations 1992
A single country happens when you have: Common currency Unified taxation Unified military Free travel and common borders. Without any one of these you are not a single country. Russia and Belarus don't have any of these apart from free travel, but there is still a state border between them. The EU is more of a single country than Russia and Belarus.
I think Belarus has a shared history with the Polish Lithuania commonwealth. What not happened to Russia. The other flag of Belarus with a horse shows how the country is connected to Lithuania. I guess those countries may share some culture between them and maybe could be a little bit different from Russia. The other sign that Belarus people doesn't feel they are Russian is that they didn't want to join Russia. Many countries have many things in common, but don't want to join such as Slovenia and Czechia.
You got it right, Belarus back then called (White) Ruthhenia was with ukraine part of the Polish Lituhanian Commonwealt and this is the main thing that distinguish us from Russia
Lithuania is only a name. Actually people along the south side of the river Neman were called "litvins". The Grand Dutchy was mainly formed with help of Polotsk's Kingdom and Minsk (right now Belarus) and it was called The Grand Dutchy of Lithuania. So please, don't missunderstand this.
if you google it all these pacs that russia/ putin has, is with countries with dictators that have been in power since the USSR collapsed. war with georgia and Ukraine is cause they wanted to go their own ways into modern day peaceful western styles.
As a resident of Belarus, I can say that there are several reasons: 1. The people of Belarus will not support this, despite the "brotherly" attitude, something "extraordinary" must happen for Belarus to lose its sovereignty. The only way is a military conflict, but the Russians will not go for it because of geopolitics, and, strangely enough, because of their own people, who will not support such aggression. 2. Lukashenko is the sole ruler and does not want to share. He runs the country himself, and, ironically, he really tries to protect the interests of Belarusians in the international political arena and play independent. 3. This is not beneficial for Russia. Belarus has nothing "super valuable" to try to resolve this issue aggressively, especially since the Belarusian army, despite criticism from Western propaganda, is not so weak, given the size of the country and universal military service (800> tanks, 1000> ifvs, 350> artillery pieces, hundreds of missile systems, air defense and about a hundred aircraft and helicopters). 4. Russia is quite satisfied with an independent, but allied buffer state, capable of being a mediator for interaction with the West and evading sanctions. Moreover, in recent years, the connection between Moscow and Minsk has strengthened due to sanctions and the war in Ukraine.
7:55 - Who are those "Belarussians" and what is this "Belarussian language"? Is it some Moskovia invention? As a Polish person I know about Belarusians, but Belarussians is something completely new to me.
More like a buffer state for Russia. Belarus is practically a Russian satellite state. Ukraine has/had close to 40 millions people. Belarus has maybe 8 million.
@@ElTIBURON826 If Russia is attacked from the West again, the invaders would have to strike into Belarus before they could enter Russia. Russia wants Ukraine neutral because they fear NATO will put long range missiles and nukes in Ukraine along with NATO troops. Russia and China are opposed to having US bases near their borders. For example, North Korea is a buffer state for China.
How did you manage to completely skip the 2020-2021 protest is beyond me. Not to mention all of the previous waves of protest against Lukashenko, or many other "details" important for the history of Belarus, like the 1863 uprising (part of the bigger so-called January Uprising against the Russian Empire in the lands of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth), the BNR Rada - arguably the longest existing government in exile, and so on.
because in the grand scheme of things these protests and uprisings are mundane. A bunch of old Polish Lithuanian royalists getting angry with the Czar isn't something worth noting.
@TeutonicEmperor1198 It's very convenient to dismiss history (and present), you clearly know next to nothing about and understand even less as not worthy of knowing and understanding.
@@Artur_M. well tell me that wasn't the case. Tell me that the 95% of the rebels weren't actually Polish Catholics but Orthodox Belarusian Nationalists who fought for their self determination etc. Please stop labouring under a delusion
@TeutonicEmperor1198 Maybe you should explain that to the actual Belarusian nationalists today because the largest of several units of Belarusian volunteers fighting for Ukraine (another thing not mentioned in this video) and probably the biggest foreign volunteer unit in Ukraine overall - the Kastuś Kalinoŭski Regiment is named one of the January Uprising's commanders and has the date 1863 on its banner. Also, I love how you described the guys who were mostly young and progressive radicals and were supported at the time by both Garibaldi and Marx as "old royalists". Shows what an expert you are. But OK, let's agree for the sake of an argument that the January Uprising is an irrelevant ancient history, which was just a Polish rebellion anyway (and that it doesn't matter haw Belarusians themselves view it). That still doesn't explain not mentioning the massive 2020-2021 protests, Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, and the United Transitional Cabinet operating right now.

The Belarusian language is almost dead like the Irish language in Ireland. 70-80% of Belarusian people speak only Russian at home, and 99% of them speaks only Russian on the streets. Belarus was supposed to remain in Lithuania or Poland
Honestly, not bad, but the video more answered the question "Why Belarus is the Russian`s close friend?" but not why Belarus is the independent state, and not part of Russia, I need to recommend you to pay more attention on the period of the national Renaissance of the Eastern Slavic during the XIX-XX ct.
Mindaugas was the first king of Lithuania, he united the Lithuanian tribes and expanded into the territories of modern Belarus, which were only fully covered by later rulers. The development of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the relationship between its peoples is a complex topic. But naming Mindaugas as the pioneer of Belarusian statehood is misleading.

Nobody wanted anything it was just incompetent leaders of Soviet Union and Russia back then. Ukraine, Belarus should never have become countries in the first place, they never were in the past.

Ukraine never been a country before 90s so not comparable with Romania. Majority also speak Russian in Ukraine, even in Kiev most people speak Russian, not Ukrainian. Might be a shock for you but Ukraine should not be invented in the first place so we would not have this mess.
Because Belarusians like Ukrainians are not Russians. Similar but not the same, like how Estonians are similar to Finns and Austrians are similar to Germans. All 3 have different languages. Even though Putin would love to force them all to only learn Russian.
The terms you are using have little real meaning. Belarus best interests economically, culturally and militarily is to be allied with Russia. They would be ravaged, pillaged and extinguished by the EU. Historically, the majority of Belarusians and Ukrainians are ethnically Russian but were long occupied by Polish, Lithuanian, Swedish and Austrian empires. Both "national" languages are versions of Russian pidginised chiefly with Polish. Must everybody who has endured occupation abandon their true history forever after?
The domination of russian language in Belarus is a "heritage" of the Soviet union. There are still too many people who was born and grew up, and lived for long as soviet, and they are too old and lazy to switch to another language. Younger people have much more feelings to belorussian language.
@@Nebyaspeka The language you choose to speak has nothing to do with your ethnic, cultural or political identity. If that were true there would be 1.5 billion English in the world today.

В Беларуси физически уничтожили 70 процентов всех белaруских писателей, убили ученых и художников. (Труппа Третьего Белорусского Государственного театра Владислава Голубка была арестована в полном составе. Почти все были расстреляны.) Убивали по национальному признаку. Ради этого был придуман ярлык "нацдем" (это значит -- национальный демократ, хотя такой партии не существовало). Этот ярлык приклеивали ко всем белорусам, которых сталинисты планировали уничтожить. В недрах НКВД была придумана несуществующая антикоммунистическая организация СВБ ("союз освобождения Белaруси"). Под придуманный фантом энкавэдисты проводили аресты, вели воображаемое следствие, допрашивали, пытали, судили, потом ссылали в paсeю и расстреливали невинных людей. После Рижского сговора в 1921 году Беларусь разделили между Польшей и paсeей. Границу раздела провели недалеко от Менска. Существовал тайный приказ НКВД уничтожать всё белорусское население вдоль границы. Российские аккупанты хотели сделать здесь безлюдную зону. Уничтожение осуществляли пограничные войска. Довереным лицам выдавали винтовку и лопату. Когда такой солдат-пограничник встречал в безлюдном месте (на дороге, в поле, в лесу) одинокого белоруса или белоруску, или ребенка, он стрелял человека, тут же лопатой выкапывал яму и засыпал труп. Такова была инструкция. Люди в деревнях не так боялись "человека с ружьём", как солдата с лопатой. (Эти факты опубликованы в белaруской печати в начале 90-х годов.) В 30-х годах на 95-99 процентов (практически полностью) была уничтожена (сослана и расстреляна) белaруская коммунистическо-партийная и советская администрация. Уничтожали даже директорат и хозяйственных руководителей. На должности убитых администраторов и коммунистических начальников-белорусов присылали “русских” из paсeии. “Русские” 🇷🇺 (так называемые "выдвиженцы") приезжали в Беларусь, занимали освобожденные должности, получали льготы, имущество, квартиры и первое, что они делали -- закрывали белорусские школы, переводили их на “русский” язык, чтобы их дети могли учиться, не обременяя себя изучением, как они говорили, "никому ненужного" белaруского языка. Таким образом оккупанты создавали в Беларуси "русскоязычное” население". Этноцид, лингвацид, мнемацид и геноцид проводзились большевиками одновременно. Уничтожение белaрусов рaсeйским НКВД продолжалось и во времена немецкой аккупации. В июне 1941 года в первые дни войны коммунисты расстреляли в тюрьмах и на этапах тысячи заключенных. Только в Брестской крепости, где была страшная тюрьма НКВД, всех арестованных ликвидировать не успели, часть из них разбежалась. Тем временем большая группа надзирателей и функционеров НКВД была заблокирована в крепости немцами. Они сидели там около месяца, пока не вымерли. Лет через 20 после войны коммунисты придумали легенду о "героической обороне" Брестской крепости. Обращает на себя внимание тот факт, что широкое советское партизанское движение было организовано только в Беларуси и частично -- на этнических белaруских землях, которые были в составе paсeии (Смоленщина, Брянщина). В оккупированой России партизанского движения не было. Почему? Да потому, что продолжал действовать план уничтожения белорусской нации. Москва, используя органы НКВД, втянула массы гражданского белорусского населения в войну против немцев, и этим подставила белорусов под немецкий удар. Необходимое дело борьбы исходило из коварного замысла и осуществлялось подлыми методами. (Сталин хотел получить двойную выгоду.) Энкавэдисты специально около белорусской деревени убивали немца или делали другую провокацию, чтобы вызвать карательную операцию гитлеровцев (которые обычно сжигали всю деревню, чаще всего -- вместе с людьми). Таким образом, кстати, в результате специальной провокации советских партизан была сожжена и известная Хатынь, которую коммунисты потом в 70-х годах разрекламировали на весь мир как типичную жертву фашистского зверства. В результате такой коммуно-фашистской совместной "работы" в Беларуси сожгли более 9 тысяч деревень. Поэтому к концу войны, в результате специальной операции НКВД, многие белaaруские командиры были посланы на смерть, отстранены от командования, убиты и репрессированы. Их места занимали русские, присланные из Мосвы, и верные энкавэдисты. Летом 1944 года, когда "красная армия" заняла Беларусь, “русские” провели мобилизацию в армию на белaруской территории. Десятки тысяч молодых белaруских мужчин, почти без подготовки, бросили на передовую линию фронта. “pусские” командиры поднимали их в ненужные атаки под огонь немецких пулеметов, не дав даже оружия в руки, или с винтовками, но без патронов. Они гибли тысячами, как трава под косой. А те, что бежали назад, попадали под пули энкавэдистских "заградотрядов". Впрочем, заградотряды стреляли и в спину. Так продолжалось уничтожение белaрусов на войне, руками немцев и “русских” одновременно. Как говорили коммунисты, "в борьбе за советскую родину". В 40-х годах русские вывезли в Сибирь и там замучили всех лесников и так называемых "кулаков" из Западной Беларуси. Вывозили вагонами, по разнорядках.

Существовал тайный приказ НКВД уничтожать всё белорусское население вдоль границы. Российские аккупанты хотели сделать здесь безлюдную зону. Уничтожение осуществляли пограничные войска. Довереным лицам выдавали винтовку и лопату. Когда такой солдат-пограничник встречал в безлюдном месте (на дороге, в поле, в лесу) одинокого белоруса или белоруску, или ребенка, он стрелял человека, тут же лопатой выкапывал яму и засыпал труп. Такова была инструкция. Люди в деревнях не так боялись "человека с ружьём", как солдата с лопатой. (Эти факты опубликованы в белaруской печати в начале 90-х годов.) В 30-х годах на 95-99 процентов (практически полностью) была уничтожена (сослана и расстреляна) белaруская коммунистическо-партийная и советская администрация. Уничтожали даже директорат и хозяйственных руководителей. На должности убитых администраторов и коммунистических начальников-белорусов присылали “русских” из paсeии. “Русские” 🇷🇺 (так называемые "выдвиженцы") приезжали в Беларусь, занимали освобожденные должности, получали льготы, имущество, квартиры и первое, что они делали -- закрывали белорусские школы, переводили их на “русский” язык, чтобы их дети могли учиться, не обременяя себя изучением, как они говорили, "никому ненужного" белaруского языка. Таким образом оккупанты создавали в Беларуси "русскоязычное” население". Этноцид, лингвацид, мнемацид и геноцид проводзились большевиками одновременно. Уничтожение белaрусов рaсeйским НКВД продолжалось и во времена немецкой аккупации. В июне 1941 года в первые дни войны коммунисты расстреляли в тюрьмах и на этапах тысячи заключенных. Только в Брестской крепости, где была страшная тюрьма НКВД, всех арестованных ликвидировать не успели, часть из них разбежалась. Тем временем большая группа надзирателей и функционеров НКВД была заблокирована в крепости немцами. Они сидели там около месяца, пока не вымерли. Лет через 20 после войны коммунисты придумали легенду о "героической обороне" Брестской крепости. Обращает на себя внимание тот факт, что широкое советское партизанское движение было организовано только в Беларуси и частично -- на этнических белaруских землях, которые были в составе paсeии (Смоленщина, Брянщина). В оккупированой России партизанского движения не было. Почему? Да потому, что продолжал действовать план уничтожения белорусской нации. Москва, используя органы НКВД, втянула массы гражданского белорусского населения в войну против немцев, и этим подставила белорусов под немецкий удар. Необходимое дело борьбы исходило из коварного замысла и осуществлялось подлыми методами. (Сталин хотел получить двойную выгоду.) Энкавэдисты специально около белорусской деревени убивали немца или делали другую провокацию, чтобы вызвать карательную операцию гитлеровцев (которые обычно сжигали всю деревню, чаще всего -- вместе с людьми). Таким образом, кстати, в результате специальной провокации советских партизан была сожжена и известная Хатынь, которую коммунисты потом в 70-х годах разрекламировали на весь мир как типичную жертву фашистского зверства. В результате такой коммуно-фашистской совместной "работы" в Беларуси сожгли более 9 тысяч деревень. Поэтому к концу войны, в результате специальной операции НКВД, многие белaaруские командиры были посланы на смерть, отстранены от командования, убиты и репрессированы. Их места занимали русские, присланные из Мосвы, и верные энкавэдисты. Летом 1944 года, когда "красная армия" заняла Беларусь, “русские” провели мобилизацию в армию на белaруской территории. Десятки тысяч молодых белaруских мужчин, почти без подготовки, бросили на передовую линию фронта. “pусские” командиры поднимали их в ненужные атаки под огонь немецких пулеметов, не дав даже оружия в руки, или с винтовками, но без патронов. Они гибли тысячами, как трава под косой. А те, что бежали назад, попадали под пули энкавэдистских "заградотрядов". Впрочем, заградотряды стреляли и в спину. Так продолжалось уничтожение белaрусов на войне, руками немцев и “русских” одновременно. Как говорили коммунисты, "в борьбе за советскую родину". В 40-х годах русские вывезли в Сибирь и там замучили всех лесников и так называемых "кулаков" из Западной Беларуси. Вывозили вагонами, по разнорядках.
Ive been trying to learn more about the eastern slavs and why they have the borders they do today, and at this point it is my understanding that the eastern slavs are the Rus, or Ruthenians. Russia is made of the Rus who were united by Moscow. Belarus is made of the Rus who lived under the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth. Ukraine is made of the Rus who fled from the restrictive serfdom conditions in the previous two states, and are ethnically descended from the Cossacks.
Maybe if the French and the Germans teamed up to invade Russia together it might work out differently this time? You know, third time’s the charm kinda thing?
The national name Russia is a recent, historically speaking, name. It was known as the Duchy of Muscovy 1283-1621 and Tsardom of Muscovy 1613-1721. Peter the Great changed the name to the Russian Empire in 1721. Actually, based on its governance, it has always been the Tsardom of Muscovy, where power over life and death has always been centered.
Yeah no, the name russia or rus was used by latin speakers as early as the 11th century on maps following in the following centuaries it was described as rus or russia
@@mw8498 do a research by looking at older maps and historical record. Muscovy was the name of the principality (which was formerly part of the kievan rus) which gained the most power and influence and subsequently after years manage to reunite the rus people into russia. After the kievan rus was destroyed a slow battle royale for its restoration began by all principalities that were a part of the nation prior to the mongol invasion. The Grand duchy of Muscovy was used up until 1547 when the Russian tsardom was officially proclaimed.

I hope they will join together in future and strengthened them. This will help them to get their glory back. Lots of love to Russia from India. We always support Russia.
Well, no, you want to tell the history of Belarus and you don't say that Lithuania was the first Belarusian state? Belarusians were called Lithuanians by Muscovites. The language of the chancellery of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was Belarusian. The Bible in Belarusian was published in 1517 and Orthodox Christianity was practiced by the peasantry and nobility. The greatest magnate of the Polish-Lithuanian union, Prince Ostrogski, was Orthodox. Catholicism was limited exclusively to today's ethnic Lithuanians. Catholicism began to take hold of the Belarusian nobility after the war of 1654-67, when Russia invaded, murdered or deported more than half of the population of Lithuania-Belarus.
Simply in my view they have just worked along better with their parent country Russia and the more obvious thing is they have resisted multiple attempts by the US/west at a color revolution unlike certain nearby countries since 2014
"Parent country" lol? Russia isn't Belarus's parent. You could say they are sisters, both descended from the Kyivan Rus' and before the war and 2014 you could have included Ukraine in this too.

I never heard of there being any Lithuanians at the battle of Kulikov field. I think they better take a second look at their sources. Or maybe Mamay of the Golden Horde did have some Lithuanian mercenaries, but certainly it is not enough to say that “the Lithuanians” were defeated there.
BACKGROUND ( SORRY, JUST GOOGLE translate ) : After the 2nd World War, 10 million Belarus 🏳❤🏳 was missing about 3 million of its inhabitants, but about 2 million were killed before the war by the communist NKVD. In Belarus, 70 percent of all Belarusian writers were physically destroyed, scientists and artists were killed. (The troupe of the Third Belarusian State Theater of Vladislav Golubok was arrested in its entirety. Almost everyone was shot.) They killed on ethnic grounds. For this reason, the label “Natsdem” was invented (this means a national democrat, although such a party did not exist). This label was applied to all Belarusians whom the Stalinists planned to destroy. In the depths of the NKVD, the non-existent anti-communist organization SVB ("Union for the Liberation of Belarus") was invented. Under an invented phantom, the NKVD members carried out arrests, conducted an imaginary investigation, interrogated, tortured, tried, then exiled and shot innocent people. After the Riga Agreement in 1921, Belarus was divided between Poland and the country. The dividing line was drawn not far from Mensk. There was a secret order from the NKVD to exterminate the entire Belarusian population along the border. The Russian invaders wanted to make a deserted zone here. The destruction was carried out by border troops. Trusted persons were given a rifle and a shovel. When such a border guard soldier met a lonely Belarusian or Belarusian woman, or a child in a deserted place (on the road, in a field, in the forest), he shot the person, immediately dug a hole with a shovel and covered the corpse. Those were the instructions. People in the villages were not as afraid of a “man with a gun” as they were of a soldier with a shovel. (These facts were published in the Belarusian press in the early 90s.) In the 30s, 95-99 percent (almost completely) of the Belarusian communist party and Soviet administration was destroyed (exiled and shot). They even destroyed the directorate and economic managers. “Russians” from the race were sent to fill the positions of murdered Belarusian administrators and communist leaders. “Russians” 🇷🇺 (the so-called “promoters”) came to Belarus, took vacated positions, received benefits, property, apartments, and the first thing they did was close Belarusian schools, translate them into the “Russian” language so that their children could to study without burdening oneself with studying, as they said, the “useless” Belarusian language. Thus, the occupiers created a “Russian-speaking” population in Belarus. Ethnocide, linguicide, mnemacide and genocide were carried out by the Bolsheviks simultaneously. The destruction of Belarusians by the Raseysky NKVD continued during the German occupation. In June 1941, in the first days of the war, the communists shot thousands of prisoners in prisons and prison camps. Only in the Brest Fortress, where there was a terrible NKVD prison, they did not have time to liquidate all those arrested, some of them fled. Meanwhile, a large group of NKVD guards and functionaries was blocked in the fortress by the Germans. They sat there for about a month until they died out. About 20 years after the war, the communists came up with a legend about the “heroic defense” of the Brest Fortress. Noteworthy is the fact that the broad Soviet partisan movement was organized only in Belarus and partially on the ethnic Belarusian lands that were part of the race (Smolensk region, Bryansk region). There was no partisan movement in occupied Russia. Why? Yes, because the plan to destroy the Belarusian nation continued to operate. Moscow, using the NKVD, dragged the masses of the civilian Belarusian population into the war against the Germans, and thereby exposed the Belarusians to German attack. The necessary work of struggle proceeded from an insidious plan and was carried out by vile methods. (Stalin wanted to get a double benefit.) The NKVD members specifically killed a German near a Belarusian village or made another provocation in order to provoke a punitive operation by the Nazis (who usually burned the entire village, most often along with the people). Thus, by the way, as a result of a special provocation by Soviet partisans, the famous Khatyn was also burned, which the communists later advertised to the whole world in the 70s as a typical victim of fascist atrocities. As a result of such communist-fascist joint “work”, more than 9 thousand villages were burned in Belarus. Therefore, by the end of the war, as a result of a special operation of the NKVD, many Belarusian commanders were sent to their deaths, removed from command, killed and repressed. Their places were taken by Russians sent from Moscow and loyal NKVD members. In the summer of 1944, when the “red army” occupied Belarus, the “Russians” mobilized into the army on Belarusian territory. cartridges. They died in thousands, like grass under a scythe. And those who ran back fell under the bullets of the NKVD “barrier detachments.” However, the barrier detachments also shot in the back. This is how the destruction of Belarusians continued in the war, at the hands of the Germans and “Russians” at the same time. As the communists said, “in the fight for the Soviet homeland.” In the 40s, the Russians took them to Siberia and there they tortured all the foresters and so-called “kulaks” from Western Belarus. They were taken out in wagons, in different orders.
and the official document from 1933 , I can send anyone the original text : "On June 8, 1933, the secretary of the Central Committee of the CP(b)B Mikalai Gikala and the chairman of the SNK of the BSSR Mikalai Galadzed received a secret letter from the Naravlian district. An illiterate letter in the Belarusian language, in which the local leaders complained about the terrible famine in their district: "These days (June 2) had the opportunity to publish a fact: the village of Tikhin (Okopsky village council) Sikorskaya killed her 9-year-old child at night. She managed to eat part of the entrails, drowned the second child the next day and died herself from exhaustion." Such a terrible fact was cited The leaders of Naravlya tearfully ended their message: "We will not be able to do without serious help from the republican center." "The same wretched situation existed in the neighboring Yelsky District, which the Chekists reported to Minsk. In 200 families from 250 single-person households, children and adults were swollen from hunger, and 20 people died due to weight loss in two months. In order not to see the suffering of a starving family, Kolodej Nikita locked his wife and three young children in the house, closed the doors and windows, and then disappeared somewhere. Kolodej's wife and two children have already died, one child was saved by neighbors. In the village of Melyashkovichi Tikhonov's widow, Ulyana, abandoned her three children because of hunger and left without knowing where," the Chekists cited terrible examples. A special commission went to Gomel Oblast from Minsk to verify the facts. On June 21, the Bureau of the Central Committee of the CP(b)B recorded in the minutes: in the Yale and Naravlyan districts, the plague affected up to 60 percent of the population. People eat not only "linden leaves, heather, moss and chaff, but in some farms even cats, dogs and horse carcasses". Comrades from the capital were forced to admit the fact of cannibalism: "In the village Akopy... the wife of a poor man who went to work in the city returned home and found her son Volodya dead, cut off the child's legs and boiled them with sorrel. She ate the sorrel herself and fed the second cub. The next day, she and the second child died."

As something of a lifelong European history buff, I have always considered Belarus a fragment of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Along with Poland, Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, several of these in the area. In fact it was about the dead center of it in the 1600s. Some may disagree lol but hey its my party.
This is a good question indeed
Belarus is maybe the least known from all the countries from the ussr in europe and in these days they follow whatever russia orders, making their independence just a mere formality, they're a russian province in all but name
So by your logic all the nato countries are American part because they follow Americans in doing whatever war crime they order them to do ?
Putin take advice from Belarusian President, Belarus Russian and Ukrainian are same people.
And Whenever Russia get invaded the invader always take a detour to commit genocide in Belarus too.
So this is why both are close
They aren't a province of Russia, they are Russia
Belarus is independent and sovereignt. Can't say the same about the ukranian slaves
@@StekTM1 You meant to say the true RUSSIAN SLAVES are the Belarusian Slavs who allow themselves to be governed by dictator Lukashenko since the early 90’s. Ukraine has always preferred freedom over being a Russian Serf.

The answer is this: chronology of Belarus: Rus (980-1190) => GDL (1240-1569) => PLC (1569-1795) => Russian Empire(1795-1917). 555 years of Lithuania+Poland vs 122 years of Russia. So, 555 vs 122. During this 555 years, enough differences have formed on the territory of Belarus so that it does not feel like a common part with Russia. And 122 years as part of Russia could not change anything. Belarusians remembered the glorious times of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and wanted their own state.
Good math. Thanks. When Ukraine beats Ruzzia, Belarus will defect to the West too. But first things first. More aid to Ukraine.

My brother in Christ, Belarus is an Orthodox Christian, not a Catholic Christian like Poles or Lithuanians
@@red_red3743 that doesn't really matter much. The Belarusians often do identify with the Grandduchy of Lithuana. The Pahonia (Пагоия) used between 1991 and 1995, when Belarus tried to show it's own culture instead of essentially restoring the Belarusian SSR's symbols, literally was also used by the Grandduchy of Lithuana. A symbol often used by true Belarusians instead of the Lukachenko bs.

Love your work but you didn't fully answer the question and left out a lot of key insights. Lukashenko was angling to run for President of Russia in 1999 as Yeltsin's health was declining, only for Putin's ascendance to scupper his plans. In addition, Lukashenko has pushed and pulled Belarus towards Russia's orbit to varying degrees based on his own agenda and maintaining his own power. There's much more to be said about the subject. Still, great work on the historical background!
Very useful information. Thank you for posting.
@@eatmorenachos no worries. There have been a few diplomatic and trade disputes between the two countries in the past as well.

@@Nebyaspeka Sorry, EU is not the best example to use as comparison but rather the UK's England and Scotland.
@@darkmatter5424 Can't agree with you.
1) Where have you found that info about flights? You cross a border between 2 countries. You need your passport anyway. May be you meant russian "international passport" (idk is it an accurate name), what they use for international travelling. I don't think it means anything. It was made like that mostly because belorussians don't have separated international passport, to equalise russian and belorussian citizens. Belorussians need their passports to cross russian border, and Russian need either internal or "international" passports to cross belorusian border
2) I literally just finished my university course about law and institutions of EU, and during my studies I personally noticed that it is a suitable example.
cos belarus is still a republic of ussr in united nations 1945, and russia is ussr again in united nations 1945 they just changed their name, same with ukraine its still republic of ussr 1945, but kazahstan did everything right and its in united nations 1992
A single country happens when you have:
Common currency
Unified taxation
Unified military
Free travel and common borders.
Without any one of these you are not a single country.
Russia and Belarus don't have any of these apart from free travel, but there is still a state border between them.
The EU is more of a single country than Russia and Belarus.
I think Belarus has a shared history with the Polish Lithuania commonwealth. What not happened to Russia.
The other flag of Belarus with a horse shows how the country is connected to Lithuania.
I guess those countries may share some culture between them and maybe could be a little bit different from Russia.
The other sign that Belarus people doesn't feel they are Russian is that they didn't want to join Russia.
Many countries have many things in common, but don't want to join such as Slovenia and Czechia.
You got it right, Belarus back then called (White) Ruthhenia was with ukraine part of the Polish Lituhanian Commonwealt and this is the main thing that distinguish us from Russia
some yes, some no
Lithuania is only a name. Actually people along the south side of the river Neman were called "litvins". The Grand Dutchy was mainly formed with help of Polotsk's Kingdom and Minsk (right now Belarus) and it was called The Grand Dutchy of Lithuania. So please, don't missunderstand this.

It's just doing a general overview and the most notable stuff.
As a resident of Belarus, I can say that there are several reasons:
1. The people of Belarus will not support this, despite the "brotherly" attitude, something "extraordinary" must happen for Belarus to lose its sovereignty. The only way is a military conflict, but the Russians will not go for it because of geopolitics, and, strangely enough, because of their own people, who will not support such aggression.
2. Lukashenko is the sole ruler and does not want to share. He runs the country himself, and, ironically, he really tries to protect the interests of Belarusians in the international political arena and play independent.
3. This is not beneficial for Russia. Belarus has nothing "super valuable" to try to resolve this issue aggressively, especially since the Belarusian army, despite criticism from Western propaganda, is not so weak, given the size of the country and universal military service (800> tanks, 1000> ifvs, 350> artillery pieces, hundreds of missile systems, air defense and about a hundred aircraft and helicopters).
4. Russia is quite satisfied with an independent, but allied buffer state, capable of being a mediator for interaction with the West and evading sanctions. Moreover, in recent years, the connection between Moscow and Minsk has strengthened due to sanctions and the war in Ukraine.
7:55 - Who are those "Belarussians" and what is this "Belarussian language"? Is it some Moskovia invention? As a Polish person I know about Belarusians, but Belarussians is something completely new to me.

@@ElTIBURON826 If Russia is attacked from the West again, the invaders would have to strike into Belarus before they could enter Russia.

For example, North Korea is a buffer state for China.
How did you manage to completely skip the 2020-2021 protest is beyond me.
Not to mention all of the previous waves of protest against Lukashenko, or many other "details" important for the history of Belarus, like the 1863 uprising (part of the bigger so-called January Uprising against the Russian Empire in the lands of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth), the BNR Rada - arguably the longest existing government in exile, and so on.

because in the grand scheme of things these protests and uprisings are mundane. A bunch of old Polish Lithuanian royalists getting angry with the Czar isn't something worth noting.
@TeutonicEmperor1198 It's very convenient to dismiss history (and present), you clearly know next to nothing about and understand even less as not worthy of knowing and understanding.
@@Artur_M. well tell me that wasn't the case. Tell me that the 95% of the rebels weren't actually Polish Catholics but Orthodox Belarusian Nationalists who fought for their self determination etc. Please stop labouring under a delusion
@TeutonicEmperor1198 Maybe you should explain that to the actual Belarusian nationalists today because the largest of several units of Belarusian volunteers fighting for Ukraine (another thing not mentioned in this video) and probably the biggest foreign volunteer unit in Ukraine overall - the Kastuś Kalinoŭski Regiment is named one of the January Uprising's commanders and has the date 1863 on its banner.
Also, I love how you described the guys who were mostly young and progressive radicals and were supported at the time by both Garibaldi and Marx as "old royalists". Shows what an expert you are.
But OK, let's agree for the sake of an argument that the January Uprising is an irrelevant ancient history, which was just a Polish rebellion anyway (and that it doesn't matter haw Belarusians themselves view it). That still doesn't explain not mentioning the massive 2020-2021 protests, Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, and the United Transitional Cabinet operating right now.

They would be ravaged, pillaged and extinguished by the EU. Historically, the majority of Belarusians and Ukrainians are ethnically Russian but were long occupied by Polish, Lithuanian, Swedish and Austrian empires. Both "national" languages are versions of Russian pidginised chiefly with Polish. Must everybody who has endured occupation abandon their true history forever after?
The domination of russian language in Belarus is a "heritage" of the Soviet union. There are still too many people who was born and grew up, and lived for long as soviet, and they are too old and lazy to switch to another language. Younger people have much more feelings to belorussian language.

Когда такой солдат-пограничник встречал в безлюдном месте (на дороге, в поле, в лесу) одинокого белоруса или белоруску, или ребенка, он стрелял человека, тут же лопатой выкапывал яму и засыпал труп.
Такова была инструкция. Люди в деревнях не так боялись "человека с ружьём", как солдата с лопатой. (Эти факты опубликованы в белaруской печати в начале 90-х годов.) В 30-х годах на 95-99 процентов (практически полностью) была уничтожена (сослана и расстреляна) белaруская коммунистическо-партийная и советская администрация. Уничтожали даже директорат и хозяйственных руководителей. На должности убитых администраторов и коммунистических начальников-белорусов присылали “русских” из paсeии. “Русские” 🇷🇺 (так называемые "выдвиженцы") приезжали в Беларусь, занимали освобожденные должности, получали льготы, имущество, квартиры и первое, что они делали -- закрывали белорусские школы, переводили их на “русский” язык, чтобы их дети могли учиться, не обременяя себя изучением, как они говорили, "никому ненужного" белaруского языка. Таким образом оккупанты создавали в Беларуси "русскоязычное” население". Этноцид, лингвацид, мнемацид и геноцид проводзились большевиками одновременно.
Уничтожение белaрусов рaсeйским НКВД продолжалось и во времена немецкой аккупации. В июне 1941 года в первые дни войны коммунисты расстреляли в тюрьмах и на этапах тысячи заключенных. Только в Брестской крепости, где была страшная тюрьма НКВД, всех арестованных ликвидировать не успели, часть из них разбежалась. Тем временем большая группа надзирателей и функционеров НКВД была заблокирована в крепости немцами. Они сидели там около месяца, пока не вымерли. Лет через 20 после войны коммунисты придумали легенду о "героической обороне" Брестской крепости. Обращает на себя внимание тот факт, что широкое советское партизанское движение было организовано только в Беларуси и частично -- на этнических белaруских землях, которые были в составе paсeии (Смоленщина, Брянщина). В оккупированой России партизанского движения не было. Почему? Да потому, что продолжал действовать план уничтожения белорусской нации. Москва, используя органы НКВД, втянула массы гражданского белорусского населения в войну против немцев, и этим подставила белорусов под немецкий удар.
Необходимое дело борьбы исходило из коварного замысла и осуществлялось подлыми методами. (Сталин хотел получить двойную выгоду.) Энкавэдисты специально около белорусской деревени убивали немца или делали другую провокацию, чтобы вызвать карательную операцию гитлеровцев (которые обычно сжигали всю деревню, чаще всего -- вместе с людьми). Таким образом, кстати, в результате специальной провокации советских партизан была сожжена и известная Хатынь, которую коммунисты потом в 70-х годах разрекламировали на весь мир как типичную жертву фашистского зверства.
В результате такой коммуно-фашистской совместной "работы" в Беларуси сожгли более 9 тысяч деревень. Поэтому к концу войны, в результате специальной операции НКВД, многие белaaруские командиры были посланы на смерть, отстранены от командования, убиты и репрессированы. Их места занимали русские, присланные из Мосвы, и верные энкавэдисты. Летом 1944 года, когда "красная армия" заняла Беларусь, “русские” провели мобилизацию в армию на белaруской территории. Десятки тысяч молодых белaруских мужчин, почти без подготовки, бросили на передовую линию фронта. “pусские” командиры поднимали их в ненужные атаки под огонь немецких пулеметов, не дав даже оружия в руки, или с винтовками, но без патронов. Они гибли тысячами, как трава под косой. А те, что бежали назад, попадали под пули энкавэдистских "заградотрядов". Впрочем, заградотряды стреляли и в спину. Так продолжалось уничтожение белaрусов на войне, руками немцев и “русских” одновременно. Как говорили коммунисты, "в борьбе за советскую родину". В 40-х годах русские вывезли в Сибирь и там замучили всех лесников и так называемых "кулаков" из Западной Беларуси. Вывозили вагонами, по разнорядках.

Ive been trying to learn more about the eastern slavs and why they have the borders they do today, and at this point it is my understanding that the eastern slavs are the Rus, or Ruthenians. Russia is made of the Rus who were united by Moscow. Belarus is made of the Rus who lived under the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth. Ukraine is made of the Rus who fled from the restrictive serfdom conditions in the previous two states, and are ethnically descended from the Cossacks.
Maybe if the French and the Germans teamed up to invade Russia together it might work out differently this time?
You know, third time’s the charm kinda thing?
The national name Russia is a recent, historically speaking, name. It was known as the Duchy of Muscovy 1283-1621 and Tsardom of Muscovy 1613-1721. Peter the Great changed the name to the Russian Empire in 1721. Actually, based on its governance, it has always been the Tsardom of Muscovy, where power over life and death has always been centered.
Yeah no, the name russia or rus was used by latin speakers as early as the 11th century on maps following in the following centuaries it was described as rus or russia
@Silver_Prussian Do a search for when the names Duchy of Muscovy and Tsardom of Muscovy were officially used, then get back to me.
@@mw8498 do a research by looking at older maps and historical record. Muscovy was the name of the principality (which was formerly part of the kievan rus) which gained the most power and influence and subsequently after years manage to reunite the rus people into russia. After the kievan rus was destroyed a slow battle royale for its restoration began by all principalities that were a part of the nation prior to the mongol invasion.
The Grand duchy of Muscovy was used up until 1547 when the Russian tsardom was officially proclaimed.
Because it is Grand Duchy of Lithuania in fact!
Normal people: "Why isn't Belarus a part of Russia?"
NATO: "Why is Belarus a part of Russia?"
With cost of “black gold” at 15-23 dollars per barrel, the USSR economy collapsed, and the sovok itself collapsed, and the "golden" horde ("russia") budget can only be fulfilled only with oil price at $ 42.4 and higher

Well, no, you want to tell the history of Belarus and you don't say that Lithuania was the first Belarusian state? Belarusians were called Lithuanians by Muscovites. The language of the chancellery of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was Belarusian. The Bible in Belarusian was published in 1517 and Orthodox Christianity was practiced by the peasantry and nobility. The greatest magnate of the Polish-Lithuanian union, Prince Ostrogski, was Orthodox. Catholicism was limited exclusively to today's ethnic Lithuanians. Catholicism began to take hold of the Belarusian nobility after the war of 1654-67, when Russia invaded, murdered or deported more than half of the population of Lithuania-Belarus.

Lithuania came too late to help actually
BACKGROUND ( SORRY, JUST GOOGLE translate ) : After the 2nd World War, 10 million Belarus 🏳❤🏳 was missing about 3 million of its inhabitants, but about 2 million were killed before the war by the communist NKVD. In Belarus, 70 percent of all Belarusian writers were physically destroyed, scientists and artists were killed. (The troupe of the Third Belarusian State Theater of Vladislav Golubok was arrested in its entirety. Almost everyone was shot.) They killed on ethnic grounds. For this reason, the label “Natsdem” was invented (this means a national democrat, although such a party did not exist). This label was applied to all Belarusians whom the Stalinists planned to destroy. In the depths of the NKVD, the non-existent anti-communist organization SVB ("Union for the Liberation of Belarus") was invented. Under an invented phantom, the NKVD members carried out arrests, conducted an imaginary investigation, interrogated, tortured, tried, then exiled and shot innocent people. After the Riga Agreement in 1921, Belarus was divided between Poland and the country. The dividing line was drawn not far from Mensk. There was a secret order from the NKVD to exterminate the entire Belarusian population along the border. The Russian invaders wanted to make a deserted zone here. The destruction was carried out by border troops. Trusted persons were given a rifle and a shovel. When such a border guard soldier met a lonely Belarusian or Belarusian woman, or a child in a deserted place (on the road, in a field, in the forest), he shot the person, immediately dug a hole with a shovel and covered the corpse.
Those were the instructions. People in the villages were not as afraid of a “man with a gun” as they were of a soldier with a shovel. (These facts were published in the Belarusian press in the early 90s.) In the 30s, 95-99 percent (almost completely) of the Belarusian communist party and Soviet administration was destroyed (exiled and shot). They even destroyed the directorate and economic managers. “Russians” from the race were sent to fill the positions of murdered Belarusian administrators and communist leaders. “Russians” 🇷🇺 (the so-called “promoters”) came to Belarus, took vacated positions, received benefits, property, apartments, and the first thing they did was close Belarusian schools, translate them into the “Russian” language so that their children could to study without burdening oneself with studying, as they said, the “useless” Belarusian language. Thus, the occupiers created a “Russian-speaking” population in Belarus. Ethnocide, linguicide, mnemacide and genocide were carried out by the Bolsheviks simultaneously.
The destruction of Belarusians by the Raseysky NKVD continued during the German occupation. In June 1941, in the first days of the war, the communists shot thousands of prisoners in prisons and prison camps. Only in the Brest Fortress, where there was a terrible NKVD prison, they did not have time to liquidate all those arrested, some of them fled. Meanwhile, a large group of NKVD guards and functionaries was blocked in the fortress by the Germans. They sat there for about a month until they died out. About 20 years after the war, the communists came up with a legend about the “heroic defense” of the Brest Fortress. Noteworthy is the fact that the broad Soviet partisan movement was organized only in Belarus and partially on the ethnic Belarusian lands that were part of the race (Smolensk region, Bryansk region). There was no partisan movement in occupied Russia. Why? Yes, because the plan to destroy the Belarusian nation continued to operate. Moscow, using the NKVD, dragged the masses of the civilian Belarusian population into the war against the Germans, and thereby exposed the Belarusians to German attack.
The necessary work of struggle proceeded from an insidious plan and was carried out by vile methods. (Stalin wanted to get a double benefit.) The NKVD members specifically killed a German near a Belarusian village or made another provocation in order to provoke a punitive operation by the Nazis (who usually burned the entire village, most often along with the people). Thus, by the way, as a result of a special provocation by Soviet partisans, the famous Khatyn was also burned, which the communists later advertised to the whole world in the 70s as a typical victim of fascist atrocities.
As a result of such communist-fascist joint “work”, more than 9 thousand villages were burned in Belarus. Therefore, by the end of the war, as a result of a special operation of the NKVD, many Belarusian commanders were sent to their deaths, removed from command, killed and repressed. Their places were taken by Russians sent from Moscow and loyal NKVD members. In the summer of 1944, when the “red army” occupied Belarus, the “Russians” mobilized into the army on Belarusian territory. cartridges. They died in thousands, like grass under a scythe. And those who ran back fell under the bullets of the NKVD “barrier detachments.” However, the barrier detachments also shot in the back. This is how the destruction of Belarusians continued in the war, at the hands of the Germans and “Russians” at the same time. As the communists said, “in the fight for the Soviet homeland.” In the 40s, the Russians took them to Siberia and there they tortured all the foresters and so-called “kulaks” from Western Belarus. They were taken out in wagons, in different orders.
and the official document from 1933 , I can send anyone the original text : "On June 8, 1933, the secretary of the Central Committee of the CP(b)B Mikalai Gikala and the chairman of the SNK of the BSSR Mikalai Galadzed received a secret letter from the Naravlian district. An illiterate letter in the Belarusian language, in which the local leaders complained about the terrible famine in their district: "These days (June 2) had the opportunity to publish a fact: the village of Tikhin (Okopsky village council) Sikorskaya killed her 9-year-old child at night. She managed to eat part of the entrails, drowned the second child the next day and died herself from exhaustion." Such a terrible fact was cited The leaders of Naravlya tearfully ended their message: "We will not be able to do without serious help from the republican center."
"The same wretched situation existed in the neighboring Yelsky District, which the Chekists reported to Minsk. In 200 families from 250 single-person households, children and adults were swollen from hunger, and 20 people died due to weight loss in two months. In order not to see the suffering of a starving family, Kolodej Nikita locked his wife and three young children in the house, closed the doors and windows, and then disappeared somewhere. Kolodej's wife and two children have already died, one child was saved by neighbors. In the village of Melyashkovichi Tikhonov's widow, Ulyana, abandoned her three children because of hunger and left without knowing where," the Chekists cited terrible examples.
A special commission went to Gomel Oblast from Minsk to verify the facts. On June 21, the Bureau of the Central Committee of the CP(b)B recorded in the minutes: in the Yale and Naravlyan districts, the plague affected up to 60 percent of the population. People eat not only "linden leaves, heather, moss and chaff, but in some farms even cats, dogs and horse carcasses". Comrades from the capital were forced to admit the fact of cannibalism: "In the village Akopy... the wife of a poor man who went to work in the city returned home and found her son Volodya dead, cut off the child's legs and boiled them with sorrel. She ate the sorrel herself and fed the second cub. The next day, she and the second child died."

@@BarlasofIndus Багдан Хмяльніцкі, тыпу таго, падпісаў некалі "глыбокую" інтэграцыю з
ардой ... Украінскія гісторыкі кажуць, што Хмяльніцкі нічога не
падпісваў, і ўсё гэта хлусня! І папер ніякіх не было і няма! А маскоўцы
кажуцуь, што Хмяльніцкі -- падпісваў, але паперы не захаваліся бо моль
іх паела. А ў выніку што? Украіна-Русь на доўгія стагоддзі патрапіла пад
маскоўскі бот. Маскоўская арда скрала назву Украіны -- Русь, усю яе
гісторыю, міталёгію, культуру і выдае яе за сваю. Узяць бы таго князя
Уладзіміра, які, нібыта, хрысціў маскавітаў, яшчэ і помнікі яму нахабна
ставяць. А далей і згадваць не хочацца.... Рэвалюцыя, Грамадзянская
вайна, Галадамор, рэпрэсіі, генацыд... І нaрэшце вайна на Дамбасе,
анексія Крыма, вайна, вайна .
@@BarlasofIndus "8 чэрвеня 1933 г. сакратар ЦК КП(б)Б Мікалай Гікала і старшыня СНК БССР Мікалай Галадзед атрымалі сакрэтны ліст з Нараўлянскага раёна. Непісьменная пісулька на беларускай мове, у якой мясцовыя кіраўнікі скардзіліся на страшэнны голад у сваім раёне: “На гэтых днях (2 чэрвеня) меў мейсца з рада вон выходзячы факт: гр. в. Ціхін (Акопскага сельсавету) Сікорская ноччу зарэзала свайго 9-гадовага дзіцяці. Частку ўнутранасцей пасьпела паесьці, назаўтра ўтопіла другога дзіцяці і памерла сама ад істошчэньня”. Такі жудасны факт прыводзілі нараўлянскія начальнікі і слёзна заканчвалі сваё пасланне: “Без сур’ёзнай дапамогі рэспубліканскага цэнтру абысціся не зможам”.
"Такое ж бядотнае становішча было і ў суседнім Ельскім раёне, аб чым чэкісты рапартавалі ў Менск. У 200 сем’ях з 250 аднаасобных гаспадарак дзеці і дарослыя апухлі ад голаду, за два месяцы з-за схуднення памерла 20 чалавек. “Аднаасобнік хутара Рэдзька Калодзей Мікіта, каб не бачыць пакуты галоднай сям’і, запёр у хаце жонку і трох малалетніх дзяцей, забіў наглуха дзверы і вокны, пасля чаго сам некуды знік. Жонка і двое дзяцей Калодзея ўжо памерлі, аднаго малога выратавалі суседзі. У в.Меляшковічы ўдава Ціханава Ульяна з голаду кінула траіх дзяцей і сышла няведама куды”, - прыводзілі жудасныя прыклады чэкісты.
На Гомельшчыну з Менска выехала спецыяльная камісія для праверкі фактаў. 21 чэрвеня Бюро ЦК КП(б)Б занесла ў пратакол: у Ельскім і Нараўлянскім раёнах мор закрануў да 60 працэнтаў насельніцтва. Людзі ядуць не толькі “ліпавае лісце, верас, мох і мякіну, а ў некаторых гаспадарках нават катоў, сабак і конскую падаль”. Сталічныя таварышы вымушаны былі прызнаць факт канібалізму: “У в. Акопы… жонка бедняка, пайшоўшага на працу ў горад, вярнулася дадому і знайшла свайго сына Валодзю мёртвым, адрэзала ногі дзіцяці і зварыла са шчаўем. Паела шчаўя сама і пакарміла другое дзіцянё. Назаўтра памерла сама і другое дзіцё”.
Bullseye!
