I haven't read anything positive from anyone visiting your comunist filled exact replica of Russia because that's what you all are.Belarusians never wanted or needed to be saved from anything because they're content drinking konyak and smoking heavily alot.But the upside being Belarusians just like everyone else in the Soviet union block past and present are killing themselves with their life altering habits which is great news for others who despise them.
I belive its very peaceful, clean and safe country and Im happy I was born here.
I also have a Youtube channel named AnfisaBelarus , where I show you real life which majority of Belarusians have.
Greetings from Minsk.
