Хeхeхe. Я нeнaвиджy кoмyнicтiв.

Hopмaльнo ти тaк вiдpaзy влiтaєш

How are you lads holding out over there?

Alright, I guess? A lot of work and uni stuff as of late

Can you guys redpill me on Belarussian-Ukrainian relations? How do Belarussians feel about the war in Ukraine? How do Belarussians view Russia in general? Would Belarussians be interested in joining Intermarium (a defensive alliance with Poland, Ukraine, Baltics and Finland), if that were a realistic possibility?

>Can you guys redpill me on Belarussian-Ukrainian relations? How do Belarussians feel about the war in Ukraine?
From what I gather, majority is silently against, but since protests in 2020 opposition was pushed underground or outside of the country. A lot of them are here, many are fighting (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kastuś_Kalinoŭski_Regiment)

I hope they do

>How do Belarussians feel about the war in Ukraine?

depends on their political views, anti-Lukashenkoists are against, pro-Lukashenkoists are generally like "Putin is right but still the war is a disastrous thing and we don't want to take part in in", the number of pro-war Belarussians is small. Generally I'd say their society is split on this issue but a lot of people are afraid of voicing their real opinion, they just want to stay quiet and continue with their more or less stable lives.

Generally Belarussians even have a national saying "may the war never come to us". They will do everything not to have a war.

> How do Belarussians view Russia in general?

Also, depends on their political stance, but I'd say the most common sentiment is that Russia is their closest neighbor in terms of culture and history and like it or not, Belarus must cooperate with Russia, even if it should stay a separate political entity to guarantee better local management. Belarussians are generally proud that their country is better managed than Russia (cleaner, more ordered, more stable etc.) and they wouldn't like to unite with Russia because it would end up with bringing Russian "standards of management" to Belarus which would result in a huge drop of living quality.

>Would Belarussians be interested in joining Intermarium (a defensive alliance with Poland, Ukraine, Baltics and Finland), if that were a realistic possibility?

Anti-Lukashenkoists, pro-Europeans - yes. But sincerely I doubt the majority of population would want it. Hard to say but generally they would like to be something like Switzerland - neutral politically and military wise while cooperating with all neighbors economically.

Thanks for the answers. I know it's something of an impossible question to answer, given that we can't exactly get reliable opinion polling. Still, I appreciate the insight

>Belarusian-Ukrainian relations
If we're talking about states, we had variable relationship, sometimes friendly, sometimes strained. It's very strained right now.
As for peoples, Ukrainians like Belarusians and vice versa. A lot of Ukrainians, especially nationalists, want to intervene in Belarus and help overthrow Lukashenko. And then they want to help Belarus derussify itself, bring back Belarusian language, etc. Something like Finns were towards Karelians in WW2, I guess.
>How do Belarussians view Russia in general?
Before the war most were neutral on it. Now the majority is silently opposing it, I guess. A bunch of them is fighting here, as another user mentioned.
>Would Belarussians be interested in joining Intermarium (a defensive alliance with Poland, Ukraine, Baltics and Finland), if that were a realistic possibility?
Don't know, but I hope they do. Wouldn't be a proper cordon sanitaire otherwise
