Thread: Explosion in Minsk - what happened?

I read something brief about explosions in the underground, in Minsk.
Does anyone know what it was about; who did it, and why?

Western special services did it. They want to destabilize the situation in Belorussia, to encourage Belorussian people against their government because it is in alliance with Russia and collaborates with Russia. Ханна, можно я буду отвечать по-русски?

Could you share with us the way 'western special services' can possibly get into that country? And also, how did 'those agents' manage to suddenly become their local turner and electrician? Or you disagree with the official version of their authorities? If so, that's a real surprise...

Касаемо теракта. Тайна, ёлки, покрытая мраком. Задержали там каких-то подозреваемых, но не пойму я, хоть убей, зачем даже душевнобольным взрывать белорусов. Вот не пойму, и всё. Да, я понимаю, что задержанные по делу о теракте уже признали свою вину, а также сознались в убийстве JFK и много в чём ещё. Вот только людей жаль. Они-то почему погибли? Кому они помешали?

Я общался на одном форуме с белорусской революционеркой. Она журналист, мусульманка и очень злой человечек. Злые человечки кучкуются и самоутверждаются. Называют это революционной борьбой. Вот и вся мотивация. Поэтому я допускаю, что в Белоруссии несколько человек насмотрелись телевизора и решили бороться с режимом как чеченцы, взрывая метро.

Наши наверное из принципа не будут упрощать выдачу виз гражданам ЕС, пока ЕС не упростит получение виз для граждан РФ. Иначе у ЕС пропадёт стимул что либо упрощать.

Official sources as well as independent media (which I personally trust) say that there are no political intentions in terrorists actions. The immediate actor claimed that he had done it because he enjoys other people suffering. I think it's kind of mental disorder. And I'm sure if there was any little connection found between the terract and politics the government would spread it out all over the world. I totally deny a theory that it can be done under Lukashenko's order.

As Putin would say: "It exploded."

Belorussian authorities said they already arrested guys who did it according to stationary camera records. All the rest is an intensive conspirology.

Да, пожалуйста. Мне это интересно или я интересуюсь этим.
А чем "этим" вы интересуетесь? Я не очень понял, вы интересуетесь терактом или языком.

Could you share with us the way 'western special services' can possibly get into that country?

При их финансовых возможностях и при сравнительной открытости и слабости Белоруссии это сделать не очень трудно. Советские шпионы проникли в тайны создаваемого в США ядерного оружия, чему после этого ещё можно удивляться?

And also, how did 'those agents' manage to suddenly become their local turner and electrician? Or you disagree with the official version of their authorities? If so, that's a real surprise...

Я боюсь, что Лукашенко просто нашёл крайних и выбил из них признания, хотя всё может быть. По большому счёту не важно, кто исполнитель, важно, кто заказчик и каковы его цели, а здесь у меня сомнений нет.

I thought it was one of the most closed countries ever. No one in, no one out...

Then what are the links between those "customers" and those two poor "executors", in your opinion?

Wherever did u get that idea? Just today, I recieved my visa for Belarus. I'll go there in two weeks. That's why I was asking about the explosion.

They seem really keen on tourism, just not according to the to the standard European model.
Actually, a visa to Russia is not entirely uncomplicated or fast, but a visa for Belarus is simple. Took me under 24 hours. The embassy staff was super friendly, despite the fact that I had accidentally filled in the wrong form for my application.

I'll let you know if I see any spies or dictators.... or tractors, lol!

But my reason for going is because it's a very safe Russian-speaking country (I am a woman, and travelling alone) it has really lovely nature, interesting culture & history + historic places. I know I'll be forced to speak Russian there - baptism of fire!! Happy to write a report, if anyone is interested.

I just don't understand how much people speak Belarussian, as opposed to Russian; and what language signs etc are in. For my own purposes.... I hope they don't speak Belarussian much, it would really confuse me.

Well, I hope you do realize, at least you can't expect anyone there to speak English. Here's an article which I think would be useful for you to read:

The Art of Non-Conformity

Don't pay much attention to what the link says, the article's actually about how an American was getting a Belarusian visa.

And sure, I'll look forward to your report on your trip there. I guess so will many of us.

I am looking forward for your impressions about Belarus...please don't forget to share here.

Some signs are in Belorussian, some are in Russian, but since the languages are very similar you shouldn't have problems understanding them. Everyone can speak Russian, even if Belarussian is their native language, but for majority native language is Russian.
About safety, I have to confirm that - from my experience the police are very friendly and uncorrupt compairing to Russia. Modern Belorussia reminds me USSR how it was in early 80, the good side of it.

I'm sure I'm only one of many people here who would love to hear about your trip when you return! Am very interested in Minsk, and hope to see it one day myself! Make sure you have a great trip

Вы неправильно думали. Белорусы спокойно ездят по всему миру, если деньги есть, а в Белоруссию поехать гораздо легче, чем в США, например.

Не знаю, меня это не волнует.

В городах говорят на стандартном русском языке, в деревнях - на различных диалектах, которые можно отнести к русскому или белорусскому языкам. Часто их говор называют трясанкой. Русский язык постепенно вытесняет все говоры.

It's a Russian/Belarusian mix, like "суржик" is a Russian/Ukrainian mix.
