Is anyone else worried for the people they interviewed? Seriously, they revealed their full names and didn't even bother to blur out their faces; If those people weren't on the secret police's watchlist before, they definitely are now.
Two things here: 1 - the police know their names and faces, most of them. They work as independent (i.e. unlicensed) journalists, at illegal (i.e. any non-progoverment) rallies and they're the first ones to get the beating and fines. And of course the police keeps their records. 2 - I don't think the police here is smart enough to look through RUclips videos in foreign languages, but as mentioned above they don't really need to
the thing about media exposure, - their faces and names are known outside of the country. it means that if something 'suddenly' happens to them - it's not a inner story, journalists could make stories with them as strugglers making a lot of exposure what is really happen and to what extreme
I live in eastern Poland, where many Belarusians live, work or simply go shopping (tax free policy) and most of them are usually scared of answering when asked about their government. Even in Poland, where you are totally free to talk and do anything you want, they are still scared. That says something. But they are really nice people.
Probaly because they actually have nothing against their government but doesn’t want to openly support it due to the fear of being demonized at least that’s what Chinese people do most still have positive views on the ccp but due to the media demonizing China most Chinese people tend to not want to openly talk about China

But then you realize those people have been living like rats and parasites. Not studying, not working,... Just drinking, partying and telling everybody to F off. That's cool and all but just don't cry afterwards, you made your choice despite all the warnings and all the people trying to stop you. Do you have ANY idea how many Ukrainians are on vacation while their country is being invaded?? They are at beaches, resorts, hotels, drinking, partying,.... Not giving 1 flying F! And we in the West pooring them with millions (even billions!) of $$$ and guns... How stupid and dumb are we. In fact that's EXACTLY how they view us... Dumb and stupid. Yeah I would be "grateful" too.... But those things cost others to make! Like money, resources and vacations for example. You think they are genuine... Seems like you never REALLY met one of them. It's easy to smile and say thank you... But that doesn't mean they are "genuine". That can also be how MF's steal from you! A life with dignity is not exactly a Right... It's also a choice! You think those people want to study, work and dedicate their lifes to the greater good?? Actually they don't! They just want to live out of others... Work, effort and money. THAT'S their mindset and system. You can't tell me that a drunk or a whore deserves dignity... They don't even have that for themselves!

It was part of her celebrity-genealogy TV series "Who Do You Think You Are?" shown here in the States. Try looking it up here on RUclips, you'll be in quite a shock like you won't believe.

Showing their faces isn't necessarily what "covertly" means in this context, especially when they literally said in the video that they've been previously arrested. It's not like the government doesn't know who these people are.

Great video! There's one thing missing though, you should have included information what language they speak. The guy from Belorussian TV spoke Russian and the guy from Belsat spoke Belorussian. So what happens in Ukraine and Belarus is the languages gain momentum, people who don't speak them start to learn it. Honestly, language places huge role in the nation identity and it strengthens the desire to gain true independence.

But here, it's like it was filmed somewhere in the depths of Russia in the 90s. God, how do these people live like this... 😢

yeah they're more honest about it over there, kind of refreshing tbh
There will always be two sides in this situations:
1) those that are against the government and are crying foul of its treatment to its people.
2) those that are part of the government and are benefiting from such treatment.
They may not be the majority but they are the ones who rules and holds the guns.

It’s basically semi cursive
Well nothing better for a propaganda poster then a psychopathic murderous mouse!
belorussians like ukrainians are genuine and grateful people. They deserve a a life with dignity and free of any opression
So are russians, and any other people of the world. Theres always going to be people that stand out and be unfair.
Bro... Says you, an outsider who has no real idea what's going on... It's easy to film miserable or poor people and then blame the system. But then you realize those people have been living like rats and parasites. Not studying, not working,... Just drinking, partying and telling everybody to F off. That's cool and all but just don't cry afterwards, you made your choice despite all the warnings and all the people trying to stop you. Do you have ANY idea how many Ukrainians are on vacation while their country is being invaded?? They are at beaches, resorts, hotels, drinking, partying,.... Not giving 1 flying F! And we in the West pooring them with millions (even billions!) of $$$ and guns... How stupid and dumb are we. In fact that's EXACTLY how they view us... Dumb and stupid. Yeah I would be "grateful" too.... But those things cost others to make! Like money, resources and vacations for example.
You think they are genuine... Seems like you never REALLY met one of them. It's easy to smile and say thank you... But that doesn't mean they are "genuine". That can also be how MF's steal from you! A life with dignity is not exactly a Right... It's also a choice! You think those people want to study, work and dedicate their lifes to the greater good?? Actually they don't! They just want to live out of others... Work, effort and money. THAT'S their mindset and system. You can't tell me that a drunk or a whore deserves dignity... They don't even have that for themselves!
yet they keep voting for oppression
Lololol

Felt like the whole competition was rigged from the start. Our teachers/trainers even told us that if anyone asks about anything, accommodations, or food we had to say that all was well. Actually, the conditions were bad.

Hard to believe this is the same Minsk where David "The scientist guy" went leaving Phoebe..
In fairness he said it's just lovely in spring.
USSR was a major scientific center so the producers were probably just going off of that stereotype
Lol That is the first thing I thought of when they said Minsk.
Except that they said it's in Russia.
HOW IRONIC. As it turns out, Phoebe (Friends actress Lisa Kudrow) went to Belarus between 2005-2010 to uncover what happened to her Jewish great-grandmother, and found out she had perished in the Holocaust, with the Nazis' 1941 "Operation Barbarossa" invasion of the Soviet Union. It was part of her celebrity-genealogy TV series "Who Do You Think You Are?" shown here in the States. Try looking it up here on RUclips, you'll be in quite a shock like you won't believe.
I like how no one is afraid of their identity being revealed on this video.
Because it's not that bad as described in the video...
Yah, in america people will not give identity to the police just because they don't want to. Many places have zero respect for the police in america. Ghettos mainly.
It's similar to venezuela and other countries, they may not have a system thats expansive enough to identify people as quickly but they still punish those they do catch harshly

So what happens in Ukraine and Belarus is the languages gain momentum, people who don't speak them start to learn it. Honestly, language places huge role in the nation identity and it strengthens the desire to gain true independence.
