The Batka Stoops to Blackmail 02/08/2007 - 19:09 / Sergey StrokanWith his characteristic candor and directness, President Lukashenko has suggested to his Russian colleague that they compare lists of grievances to see whose list is longer. The Belarussian side is trying feverishly to remember what else should be included in the bill that is about to be presented to Russia so that the relationship between the two countries no longer looks like the relationship between a breadwinner and a dependent. It isn't hard to guess that in the near future we will be witnessing some engrossing haggling, which for a galled Minsk will be an attempt to settle the score. Or at least the appearance of such an attempt, which will allow the "batka" to demonstrate his ability to land a punch. comments: 0

Belarusian and Gaelic: Two Languages At Stake 02/08/2007 - 07:40 / http://www.guardian.co.uk/g2/story/0,,1983434,00.html#article_continueThe situation with the Belarusian language in Belarus is similar to the of Gaelic language in Ireland. After a hundred years of Polonisation in the late Polish-Litvin Commonwealth followed by two hundred years of Russification in the Russian Empire and the USSR, Belarusian is no longer spoken at home by a vast majority of Belarusians. Speaking Belarusian in Belarus has become a sign of protest and a political issue as it is the anti-Lukashist opposition and the repressed civil society who are left as the real advocates of the national language.
