of course it will. belarus is more of a russian republic, not its own country. they speak russian -most people don't know the belorussian language, which is just redneck russian. it's an open border with russia. you know how you're driving in illinois and there's just a sign on the side 'welcome to indiana?' welcome to belarus.
they also have a co-mingled army, as in not just joint drills but belarus soldiers taking orders from russian generals. in fact, in case of a war, the agreement is russia commands the belarussian forces.
so, dictatorship notes aside, it would absolutely be proper and expected for putin to help the government of belarus, as per their agreements.
source: am russian, went there for work for several years as an adult, have been to belarus, have friends from belarus.
- 0ld 6y ago> belorussian language, which is just redneck russian along with the rest of the comment, this passage nicely emphasizes the common russian colonialist attitude towards belarus
- dongvsascript 6y agoah, yes, us americans with our common russian colonialist attitude towards belarus. i'm quite agaist russia actually. it is quite funny you think belarus, bordering russia, which used to be russia not too long ago, is a fully autonomous and separate country. as far as the language. you know how rednecks speak english? what if the north and south separated into separate countries. the south was less industrious, had worse education, was about 30 years back in technology and law. that's russia and belarus. and it does absolutely sound like the russian a farmer speaks. to the point i can understand it easily spoken and in print. belarus and russia (and ukraine) are literally the same people, the slavs. me, having learned proper french living in versailles, can say canada speaks redneck french. it sounds like that from the accent. this apparently means the french have a colonialist attitude towards canada. how about, stop spreading your anti-russian narrative with fake information. there's plenty of real bad things to make russia look bad.
- sergeykish 6y ago> belorussian language, which is just redneck russian Just like Poland, Slovak, Czech, Slovenian, Croatian, Serbian, right? This is BS, I've been there and it does not fit "East Slavic languages are brothers, others are not". Each language is quite different yet similar, just like Ukrainian vs Russian. A lot of shared vocabulary, but base is not the same - sounds, stress, short-long vowels, hard-soft consonants доброе утро (RU) добрий ранок (UA) dobré ráno (SK) dobro jutro (HR) And Ukrainian and Russian are not single entity either, each region has its own dialect, 100 km is enough to hear (Kharkiv-Poltava, Belgorod-Kursk). Authentic language is beautiful [1], interviewer language is bastardized. They should catch pronunciation not vocabulary.

- dongvsascript 6y agoi speak fluent proper moscow-russian, as i was born there. the way the redneck farmers speak sounds the same as belarus and ukrainian. in fact, the russian rednecks use many ukrainian words, not just pronounciation. hence redneck russian. it literally sounds like they talk in a russian village. same as to the french (and me) canadian french sounds uneducated. same as canadian english sounds bad, eh? the other languages you list, outside of your cherrypicked examples, are very different. how do i know? with ukrainian and belorussian, i can just have a coversation in the language. i take a russian word and i say it with a ukrainian accent -they understand me, and i fully understand them. in the ones you list, it's not canadian french vs france french. it's like spanish vs french. i can kinda understand the general idea of what they're saying, if i focus. they sound foreign -like when i hear spanish, only knowing french. it's southern china vs redneck north china mandarin. your examples are mandarin vs cantonese. and while most of ukraine and belarus don't even speak their own language, when they do it's not clean. they speak суржик, which is a mix of russian and their language. so it literally is bastardised russian. and btw, i lived in kiev for almost 2 years, and have visited every country in europe. i really do know what i'm talking about 1st hand. so i didn't watch your youtube video. it would be like you posting a link explaining why water is dry.
