History / What do Polish people think about Belorussians? [38]

Would you care to explain why he calls himself Russia's best friend, and he considers Russia as his best friend?

"L" says smth like: "Hello Russia, give us a bit of gas and oil for nearly free, well you know, cuz we are brothers, aren't we?"

And when Hugo Chawis arrives, he says: "Hugo! Our nations are so close, we are brothers, we have a lot of comman things (lol), you know, so would you mind to give us some oil, please"

At last when he need to show his disrespect to Russia he spent people's money to save Bakiyev. Do we need him here, in Bealarus (lol), and actually who was he unitll the revolution has came???

Hardly if the west did anything to remove him and give the people of Belarus their freedom, then the Russians from some strange and over mighty sense of self importance would go ape ****. Because Russia's prestige comes before human rights and always has.

I think we should remove him with our own hands and then the people of belarus will choose the right way. As for me prsonaly, I don't accept any way of development except of Europe way. There will be never such a failure as it was in Ukaraine or Geargia, but we need time.

Thanks :)

We are using Partisans methods as it ws during WW2 :)
And Poland helps us a lot.

History / What do Polish people think about Belorussians? [38]

You don't have to be a fcuking genius to find out, the Russians were always in favor of dictatorial rule in Belarus which is not what the ordinary people want in Belarus. If it would not be for Russian meddling, the people of Belarus would be free today.

I did not realize that there are so many similarities between Polish and Belorussian, it almost seems closer to Polish than Russian:)

I would like to take notice, in the 2nd movie the main language is Belarussian. The Polish language is only at the beginnig when belarussian guy are trying to speak Polish. He is sitting in the car. However, he is Belarussian and he speak Polish with belarussian accent. That was made not to confuse someone, cuz there are a lot of different opinions on youtube. But, to tell you the truth his destiny isn't so inspiring nowadays.

Interestin fact is that Lukashenko doesn't know the Belarussian language. He speaks kolkhoz accent Russian. :)))
Another interesting fact can be seen when he lay down his hand on Constitution... As everyone may guess, he is swearing on Constitution that he will be reliable, true, fair president :D but as we may see next, he, nominally, alter one of the main Constitution principle, as "Election of the president" (Currently he may be the president of Belarus forever). And that give him a chance officially to stay on his post utill his death. CAN ANYONE IMAGINE THAT IN THE 21TH CENTURY??? The Constitution has been changed.

I'd like to make a statement and to say some words about the current national flag of Belarus:
It has always been "White-Red-White" flag, but not the Soviet one "Green-Red". A bit confused, but that can be understood... Lukashenko is the next generation of USSR.

I have never seen in my life the university with the Belarussian language, as the general language. They were exicting, but not at present. But, for example, in some Universities we can find some lecturers which speak and teach only in Belarussian and yes, the most of them do that by the reason of their moral standards.

At last if we won't do some changes in futer or now, this System will kill itself. No one can argue with the economic laws ;)

I was talking about the present day. :) Seems like one has to...

Not only one! Almost all people in my environment against such politics and they are bussinesmen, doctors, engineers, teachers, lawers etc, but they are not police officers or other defence and law enforcement agencies. We have tasted the life with Russia and we didn't like it much. BUT THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE ARE WELCOM HERE AS THE POLISH PEOPLE AND OTHER NATIONALITIES! (Please, take a look, the Serbian people are in love with the Russian people, although they are trying to became part of EU) My opinion: We must return to the past of Belarus. I don't know wheather we will like it or weather not, but we must try to do that. In conclusion, I would like to notice that we will make it in our own way, not like Ukraine or Georgia. And we will make it without firearms or things like that.

I have nothing to say about the 2nd film, cuz i can't play it for some reason.
P.S. By the way, now in Belarus you can't use the computer in Internet Cafe without holding your pasport :))) This fact give myself the idea why... :D

With all my respect Sasha, if it would be OK for you, you can grab information from the Internet or be my guest, I can make an excursion for you.

As I always say: Young peopple in Belarus want to became part of Europe and middle class as well that's why "L" is trying to destroy it economically (according to the views of my region of country)... The salary of excavator operator is 1000$/mounth and the salary of a nurse is 120$/mounth.

Besides Lukashenko is obviously not a Russian agent on throne. He has his own agenda.

Obviously, he plays his own game. BUT, he is just another an old soviet guy with the soviet psychology and with Imperialistic ambitions

P.S. At the beginnig i thought this theme wouldn't be about politics, but I was wrong :(((

History / What do Polish people think about Belorussians? [38]

Oh, yeah you are right! But after all, as the GDL was an internatiaon country, thereby the mixture of different nationalities is irreversible, so it's hard to say whether they were "Rusini", or not, but definitely they were not "Byelorussians" after all. Another problem is the surnames which endings are "-ich", sometimes "-ski" and sometimes "-ko"

Thank you all for nice conversation

The most strange thing is that here, in Belarus, about 65% of people have the last name endings like "-ich".

History / What do Polish people think about Belorussians? [38]

Still, if you say that the term 'Belarus' was invented by the Russians in the 18th century,

The USSR guys invented the word "Byelorussians" and then Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic in the 20th century. And the word "Belarus" is the modern and the official name, but the Russian people are still using the word "Byelorussia".

During the GDL there was only one name for the people of the territories of present Lithuania, Belarus and West Ukraine - "Litwini". Also, there was an unofficial word for the people which lived on the territory of nowadays Belarus "Tutejszyja". Like for example "Bavarians"

If we are talking about the nation of modern Belarus then it is a mixture of Baltic and Slavic tribes.

History / What do Polish people think about Belorussians? [38]

Helllooo!!!
That's quite interesting :))) i'll definitely make some comments later. Unfortunately I have so much work to do :)

'Belarus is just a bigger version of kolchoz'

Nowadays thats slightly the truth, cuz a vast of belarussian engineers, doctors, lawyers, IT specialists etc. immigrate to the USA, Poland Russia, Canada, Australia etc. The main reason of this is the wages of people which are engaged in different sectors of intellectual work or it's better to state inconsistence of their wages with the wages of other groups. For Example in Belarus, the avarage salary of doctor is 200 U.S dollars in comparison with the salary of wiper which is 300 U.S dollars!!! SO WHERE IS THE LOGIC???

I would drink for that becasue it would mean normality both in PL and in BY and between PL and BY. Long way to go I suppose...

Thank you, we will make it, and this dream will come true very soon :)

GOD BLESS AUSTRALIA!

In my opinion there should be more of cultural exchange between Poland and Belarus even Russia, perhaps then we can put our political differences aside and enjoy what each side has to offer.

A friend of mine was in Poznań not for a long time ago. He is an architecture and there was a plan to construct a bulding and the main goal was to create a mixed group of Polish/Belarussian architecture and engineers which could make this project come true.

There was a condition they should do it during the period of 2 weeks. All together they made it in 5 days! The other 9 days they were drinking as so called "Wódka" :D and see the sights of Poznań. The project was great! I have fotos.

Tadeusz Kosciuszko, born in Mereczowszczyzna on the territory of Belarus, a veteran of the American Revolutionary War, which led to the third and final partition of the Commonwealth in 1795. Thus the remaining part of Belarus became Russian.

Interesting fact is that Tadeusz Kosciuszko is a national hero of Belarus as well as Adam Mickiewicz! :) And Tadeusz Kosciuszko was in a half Belarussian, or it's better to say "Litwini" (those times Litwini and Belarussians had the same name). Actually the word "Belarussians" is the imaginary word. Russian Empire fabricated it. This word have never been exicting until the 18th century.

In reality, the Belarussian language was using the Latin alphabet until the Cyrilic alphabet was imposed on them by the Russians. The Belarussian language was also the official language of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania until Polish replaced it in that role in 1697.

The Belarussian language was using both the Cyrilic alphabet and the Latin alphabet, as the Serb people do nowadays ;) The official language of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was always Belarussian. Maybe you are talking about Commonwealth and about different political documents if you are talking about that then I would say nothing, cuz actually I'm not well informed about that.

What makes you feel like that? If one found out that the direction was wrong, it doesn't automatically mean he would choose the proper one next time. A good example Ukrainians and Bandera (and now Pres. Janek is not the best choice either). Besides all talks about course line are pointless as long as they've got Lukashenko at the helm. Let's not forget about the reality.

The most GDL docs were destroyed by Russian Empire, but we have some information from Belarusian People's Republic which didn't make it possible to suffer from hunger as it was in Ukraine and we won't never forget it. And we've got some ancient docs from Poland. And Also we have Russian history docs, so we can compare them and draw a conclusion. :(

Typical Polish "Pany" scare tactics employed for centuries by the Russians bad "Lachy"

Hmmm, i might be wrong, but as far as i know the word "Lachy" isn't so swear, there is a polish beer "Lech" and "Lech" is the polish name + there is a legend with 3 brothers which names are "Lech", "Rus" and Czech :D And it is a bit grate on my nerves to hear "BialoRussia"... but some of you guys are still using it :D

There's nothing wrong with having a friendly approach to ones neighbors and still having your own national identity intact.

We had the most democratic union than other Europe had and now... How does it happend that Belarus is now the last Totalitarism country in Europe. I don't blame no one, except of us ourselves. (the people of Belarus)

Funny though! :D

Low self worth on your part if you ask me given how tight the Russian-Belorussian relationship is.

Russian-Belorussian relationship is falling apart nawadays, you can grab this information from the News and Yes, Sasha Welcome to Belarus! You will see it with your own eyes, no one will call you "comrade". Please, visit Grodno and Brest at first. It sounds pretty rude, but it is the truth!

You never know, absolute power corrupts absolutely. If he ever perceives Russia as a threat, he might, just might isolate himself from Russia seeking support somewhere else. Nothing is set in stone.

Political Games as always :D

I already apologized for that I was too hasty and probably too harsh in my conclusion but here and there I've run onto many examples of how people from the former USSR (including Russia) are ready to adopt the most ridiculous version of their own origins/heritage and pervert the history for the only purpose to bash Russia and shift all the blame upon her. It's like trying to disprove one false theory taking on trust the other one false.

Please, read above, thanks

YES, UNIVERSAL TRUTH!!!
And Belarussians must to do smth with it at last and we will!

Thank you all for Attention. Let the God Bless us all.

History / What do Polish people think about Belorussians? [38]

You are seething with anger Sasha :)))

It isn't the subject of the theme just what you are trying to establish. And what you are trying to say is just don't make sense to me.

Once there's a chinning of some achievements/inventions/goods there one could stick with another nationality,

For the present I haven't wrote nothing about Russian or Belorussian achievements/inventions/goods ;)

however if that's god forbid some sots/stalinists/evil there we've got "the Russians" perfectly fit. :)

And once again, have I ever wrote smth against the Russians? :)
Do you see the differences between "Russian Empier", "USSR" and "the Russians"?

The later mentioned "Polka" is the word.

Yes, I've written it as below.

But it must be sound a little bit strange for people who's native language is Polish. And funny, but it is not racist word as you see ;)) Anyway

I think that they are friendly and that they are not a bad singers.
:)

Oh, thank you (Koldun is not in this section :D), polish singers/composers are good too, but actually I heard just a few of them. :(

I bet you are watching Eurovision now. :)

We really need to work hard on their singing, I mean the singing of belarussian singers :DDD

History / What do Polish people think about Belorussians? [38]

That made my day. As if some Belorussians don't do this...

"Another sheep straying from the flock" - People are not sheeps, believe me ;)
"Losing its identity" - No, I know the history of my country, I use my native language :)
I have never said I don't like Russian people ;))) A'm I. I'm not trying to attract someone's attention. It's just interesting to me to know what do Polish people think about Belorussian people.

And responding to "Palachka". I wrote Russians, cuz actually people from Poland don't see the differences, that's it :))) And the word "Palachka" is very close to Slang. I'm trying to learn the Polish language and this word seems to me a bit strange. The Russian llanguage has the word "Polka" too ;)

Where are you from Sasha? :)

I'm not Polish but the 2 Belorussians I've had in class have been well received and there is a certain closeness. In relative terms, they are closer to them than to Germans or many other Europeans.

I think some closeness is existing, but I think not at all.
But Thanks for your Reply

Life / Is the word "Polack"rascist? [185]

Some Russian people call Polish people of female gender as "Palachka" or "Palaczka" (in Polish) which makes me laugh out loud :))), cuz actually it means "The woman who smokes".

:))) But most of them don't know about that even.

History / What do Polish people think about Belorussians? [38]

I have looked through the forum and to tell the truth, it seems to be very interesting :)
I'm really happy for Polish people, they made the right choice in 90th :))) But, it wouldn't happend in other way.

Not much, Poles who never been to Belarus generally dont have any opinion about Belarussians, the street is fairly neutral to them.

At some point I will definitely agree with you. And from what I've heard from my friends in Poland, Polish people actually don't care about Ukrainians or Slovaks either, but my folks don't like Russians and Germans much. Well, it is quiet understandable why, according to the history of Poland.

Also, near Bialystok there live some ethnic Belarus folk

The funniest thing is that Belorussians which live in Poland know the belorussian language and those who live in Belarus don't. But language is part of mentality, culture etc.

"To jest naprawdę szkoda". :(

History / What do Polish people think about Belorussians? [38]

Hello to All :)))
It would be a great pleasure for me if you, guys, answer a question :)
What do Polish people think about Belorussians. Politics and Lukashenko's regime are not the topic of this theme, cuz everyone knows that it is really terrible.

I have a lot of positive and some negative experience, but actually much positive.
For instance, some of them:

When I was in Poland 2 weeks ago, one of Polish guys gave me a bottle of beer as a gift and I gave him 5000 of bel. rubles (it's about 1,8 of US dollars) as a souvenir. At that time I had nothing to give him back :(

On the other hand:

One day, when I was in a store, one lady, which was the sales person, shouted at me smth like: "Mam już chorą głowę od was wszystkich!!!" But, I was the first visitor :((( And it was really loud.

I have some friends in Poland, but they have said nothing about that.

I'm really interested and all of your opinions will be really useful.
Thanks :)))
