"Better to be a dictator than gay" - Lukashenko 2012

[@crazeelazee7524]

A very important detail that wasn't mentioned is the Dublin convention, which basically states that deported refugees are to be returned to the first EU country they entered. The reason why Germany has such an open border policy is because they can choose who they accept and then send the rest back to whichever Eu country they first entered from. So the argument that they're simply trying to cross Poland becomes irrelevant. Sure, the migrants are simply trying to get to Germany but Poland knows that Germany is going to pick the "best ones" and then send the rest to Poland, who at that point will be Poland's problem to deal with.

[@rambidan6259]

It is crucial to state, that these people aren't refugees. They are migrants.

[@fjuris3116]

That’s not entirely true though, as Germany has pretty much accepted everyone reaching its territory ever since the refugee crisis in 2015. Sure, theoretically they could send people back to their first country of arrival but they hardly have done so ever since

I went to the Ting web page by using the link in the description. After reading the terms I decided that the company wasn't one that I was willing to deal with. The description of the offer you give in the video is missing a lot of information. The conditions in their plans, makes their plans not as great as they seemed to be. In fact, I felt that they were a bit shady with their plans. I'm not going to purchase a phone in order to have them as my cell phone service provider. Also the discount is only for the unlimited plans and will be given over a 5 month period. I don't care for the provider that I currently have but I'm not going to jump into a plan that is worse than what I have now.

Very good video and sums everything up relatively quickly. Only a couple of things I noticed that were slightly off was 1. The olympic runner refused to run in an event she hadn't prepared for and was sent home early from the Olympics. At the airport she straight up ran away from her handlers taking her back to Belarus for punishment and begged the Tokyo police to help her and protect her. Luckily, they did. Her freedom was already in danger, and for running away from her handlers.. now her life was in danger. 2. Germany has straight up said, "no more migrants" and now the refugees were sent back home. They paid anywhere from $2.500 to $15,000 to get to Belarus (yes, the money went directly to Lukashenko) and as soon as they got off the plane they were forced to the Polish border. Once Germany said, "no refugees will be accepted" the migrants were now forced home. 3. No one has complained about the drugs flooding Europe lol But the amazing thing is that the migrant crisis is all because he's angry he got in trouble for staging the RyanAir hijacking. He doubled down on a problem he caused. The Belarusian people are beautiful, and amazing. Belarus deserves true independence for once in its history

[@alaric_]

Note on the 2. point: migrant and refugee are different things. Declining to accept refugees would be a bad thing (although it does happen) but declining a migrant is totally up to the sovereign country to decide on. It would ease the discussions if proper statuses were used. Media mixes these two constantly and therefore makes an assumption that migrant would have some UN guaranteed "refugee status" which they don't.

[@ajs787]

​ @Alaric Balthi And on point 3: wasn't that just a threat from Lukashenko? Or was there an increase in drug traffic beyond what's already known?

[@jonesaffrou6014]

@@ajs787 There's a demand for drugs in Europe that is and has been always met, mainly cocaine, weed, MDMA and recently ketamine, usual party drugs for a well-off population. If Łukaszenko somehow launched a "smack into every house" program in Europe to Europeans they'll just sell it to the US. He doesn't understand that drugs are a commodity and using it as a "weapon" like he does migrants will probably just stimulate the economies of Europe, or if he gets something that Europeans fancy (which is way too expensive for the regime btw) the worst he'll achieve is putting a few minor local manufacturers out of business.

Lukashenko's grip on Belarus will keep on going as long as he has Russia as its closest ally. It's known for a while that Russia and the EU aren't best of friends ever since the crisis in Ukraine, the annexation of Crimea by Russia and the ongoing conflict in Donetsk and Luhansk. Russian president Vladimir Putin has barred planes bypassing Belarussian airspace and he has even said (which was during the case of the Malaysian Airlines Flight 17, which was revealed to be shot down over Donetsk airspace) that he can close the entire Russian airspace for any nation that closes its airspace for Russian planes and airlines, but the reason why he hadn't done it is that it'll hurt Russia itself as well (it has to do with the transit tarrifs Russia receives for crossing its airspace). Back to Belarus - Putin essentially guarantees Lukashenko's grip, but once even he cuts ties with him, it'll be game over

[@789know]

Lukashenko at the beginning(before the elections) actually try to play Russian and the west. He keep saying Russian may meddle in elections(to get him out), arrest pro russian presidential candidate and oppositions(tho he arrested everyone who try to oppose him in the elections at that points) and even arrest Wagner who transit through Belarus(almost extraditing them to Ukraine). Try negotiate with Russia over its role in exporting goods sanctioned in Russia to Russia etc. Luka even try to lean to the west with its behaviour at that time to gain leverage over Russia. Many people forget his pre-elections moves against Russia and his way of trying to play Russia. Before the elections there were plenty of opinions that Belarus may drift away from Russia and slowing embrace into the west under Luka given Luka political movement at that time. But his arrest of candidates/oppositions, brutal supression of protest and his blatant manipulation of elections, arrest make the west stay away from him(The west didn't really like him to begin with). When the protest start, the west(especially eastern European states) express support of the oppositions, which made Luka hate the West further. After he arrested the major opposition figure svetlana and force exile her, thing got worse for him. Luka therefore wants to do anything to hurt the west to get his petty revenage after he brutally suppress the protest movement. At that points, it also means that Luka can no longer use the west as a leverage to gain leverage over Russia anymore as the west/US want him gone and not a person they want to deal with anymore. As for Russia, they know Luka, unlike back in before elections, has lost all his cards in playing against Russia. Hence, they use this crisis as a way to increase control over Belarus(and Luka). Luka is worth keeping as he still has the power over there and it is someone they know well enough to play with. Also Luka also stills have enough loyal figure on his side. Luka now need to be very close to Russia to get his position secured and his Economics in a good shape. Russia use it as a way to increase its grips over Belarus, which chances are hard to get before Luka fucked up so much in his ways of handling elections, oppositions,protests and lost all his cards that can play against Russia to gain leverage.

Hello, Belarusian migrant in Poland here, in general this video is correct from my POV, minor notes that i noticed and are thought to mention in regards to this video: 1) 5000 deaths from covid is probably not correct, but any semblance of statistics except official is banned, and we have no idea what the actual number is 2) There were other leaders in belarusian protest, none of their fates are particularly bright for now, we hope that changes soon 3) August crackdown was not even just against the protestors, it was against, well... anyone unlucky enough to be in the wrong place and time, often this place and time being literally outside your workplace or home. Brutal torture and beatdowns by police, etc. 4) The situation in Belarus is worse then ever, with hungreds of thousands (no reliable statistic, estimates) belarusian immigrants leaving the country. A lot of them are migrating or fleeing to Poland as well. There is some controversy to that - today its much easier to get additional protection and legal status in Poland for belarusian then for anyone else. Even then, there is much nuiance to that situation, so its hard to compare a belarusian migrant to other migrants in Poland, but it is still controversy fuel.

[@Nia_is_gay]

@@Rezlusiowa thank you for your kind words. I didn't get to talk with a lot of poles, in a bit of an overload right now and just survival mode psychologically, so can't confirm and deny from my POV. I know that some poles are all about "Poland for Poles" and stuff like that, and there probably are some tensions in a lot of fields, including unis where people can judge that's it's unfair that a proportionally large amounts of positions is taken by Ukrainian/Belarusian/other immigrants. In general my interactions were neutral or supportive, but people are different and being an immigrant is never easy. Also not like a lot of us are in a position to be picky, and legal questions-wise, Poland is probably the easiest for a Belarusian to migrate, maybe tied by Lithuania, questionably so will probably have to deal with whatever attitude anyways

There are even jews living here comparing the situation to some awful times 80 years ago.

Sorry if I'm mistaken but I understood from this video that Poland is unwelcoming to other nations and we are closed for imigrantns when it's not true. The imigrant crisis from 2015 that the autor mentioned was a lot harder to understand, lets just say that UE parliament sayed that they were mostly women and children refugees and in reality it was 70-80% young men looking for oportunity for easier lives. And even if Poland accepted them then they would just travel to germany or somewhere where thay would get more social money as unemployed. It was around 1,2m people and west europe didn't handle it too well bc they had different culture and didn't want to assimilate. But when real crisis appears Polish people are always open to help bc we know from our history what it's like to be in that sitation... For example I had 3 Chechnya refugees in my high school class (after Russia invaded them) and between 2014-2021 we welcomed more than 1m people from Ukraine without problems like they had in west europe with middle east imigrants (refugee camps, terrorist atacks etc).

I'm Polish and tbh i dont have really grounded opinion about this situation. It's of course a great tragedy for people at the border but solving this crisis is not that easy... Lukashenka openly talked about passing drugs by a border, and while he talked about drugs, there may be other threats. Like imagine you are dictator which wants to make a damage for the EU in financial way and political way, you just want to make a mess and make EU accept that you are president of Belarus and accept that voting fraud wasn't fraud, and in action show EU that gas pipes which are going through Belarus are going through dangerous terretoriy and Belarus might just cut Russian gas deliveres, which is essencial for EU energetic system, and it will be even more essencial since Germany plans to shift it's energy sources to gas (I tbh hate idea of gas power stations, i'm nuke&renewable team). You might ask why gas pipes are such important right now, it's great question, but highly propablable is that they want to force EU to use North Stream 2, this pipe isnt going through Ukraine or other countries, it will be going straight to Germany, and i cant tell why (at least previous government) Germany is pushing this pipe so much, i simply dont understand how in other than finacial way its good idea. It not only will be a great tool for forcing EU to anything by treating that they will cut gas deliveries, but it's also not going through ukraine or belarus which means that Russia will be able to cut gas deliveries to Ukraine, but still sell gas to EU. Not even mentioning that Lukashenko surely knows ways to transfer terrorists to EU. Passing migrants also would mean that we as a EU accept this act of creating humanitarian and political crisis as insignificant. In short, if terrorist(in this case Lukashenko) threatens you to pay, you just have to say no.

[@cho4d]

I'm pretty sure if they cut off gas supplies that would be considered an act of war and they'd be obliterated. No one wants that. It's just political sabre rattling. I hope.
