“Many generations of Belarusians were raised on law-abiding principle. We lived 400 years, even more so under the Charter, according to the law. Now we see it being destroyed: people do not live according to the law, but on the orders of the superior,” the historian explains the nature of the Belarusian patience.

By ceasing to be law-abiding, the Belarusians are also unlearning to work:

“The government is deliberately throwing pieces of bread and bones to those who can rebel: employees of large enterprises. They work little, but get money for vodka and bread. And they keep silent. Generations of Belarusians are unlearning how to work. A friend of mine has lived in America for 10 years, he created a company and hired 20 Belarusians. Recently I called him, and he said he had fired all of them. “Why?” – “Give me the money, I do not want to work.” Tajiks, Uzbeks are working at his place…”
