President and Belarusophobic

What is patriotism? What is freedom? Questions from the category of eternal, but yesterday they were unexpectedly resolved in the framework of one short discussion. The two most famous Belarusians argued: President Alexander Lukashenko and writer Svetlana Aleksievich.

Lukashenko came to congratulate the Russian composer-sentenger Viktor Drobesh, who was awarded the Order of Francis Skorina, but the president had another goal: to answer the eternal question. About patriotism. This firm Daddy's hard nuts clenched with two blows.

First of all, he praised the awarded. “You never,” he said to the nodding musician, “even being far from our homeland, when they did not talk about us very well, they were not ashamed to call themselves Belarusian.” And he immediately talked about the main, painful, about certain "our individual ... creative personalities, even the Nobel Prize laureates." About those, you see, "who have not yet had time to get it, went outside the country and tried to pour the dirt to their country."

Actually, this is how they must be solved, these eternal, painful, philosophical problems - with the help of simple examples. Here he is on the stage, a citizen of the Russian Federation, awarded the Belarusian Order, writer of the Dadidam song, accepts well -deserved praise - and is not ashamed. And he was never ashamed that the Belarusian. Therefore, they awarded. And there are "laureates", which, it turns out, is familiar with a sense of shame. Alexander Grigoryevich addressed him a couple of somewhat unkind words.

Personally, the president, addressing the Nobel laureates to them, said that “their mother does not choose their homeland, their land, like their parents. She is what she is. And if you speak poorly about the Motherland, you are ashamed of her, then you are a bad son!” And everyone guessed who they were talking about, and the faces of the audience lit up with the light of solved secrets, and applause sounded.

The fact is that there are very few among the Nobel Prize laureates of the Nobel Prize. More precisely, only one is - in the entire history of the prize and in the entire history of Belarus. And this is not even a son, but a daughter. About her, about Svetlana Aleksievich, Lukashenko and spoke, honoring the Drobysh. And although the author of the “Chernobyl prayer” of the shameless word never said neither the Belarusians nor the other peoples, in fact, the dad was right. They really do not choose their homeland, they choose Lukashenko himself, and Aleksiyevich has repeatedly responded about him and his unfortunate voters with pain and bitterness. Whereas true patriotism, you know, is to praise the legally elected president of Belarus daily.

Svetlana Aleksandrovna, answering Alexander Grigoryevich about patriotism, leaned to the idea that last times were coming, but this was not the most interesting place in her speech. The writer's thoughts about freedom were much more interesting. As a need to be conscious in Minsk at the highest level.

“When Lukashenko congratulated me, even if not the first, I was glad,” Aleksievich admitted, “because I realized that he was a politician. And suddenly this commentary. I think then he congratulated, because it was before the elections, there were a lot of different international commissions, and he had to hold his face, and now he is free.”

In other words, it turned out that the president of Belarus on the eve of the popular will - this is the most inventive and not free person in the country. The opposition does not touch your finger, otherwise the sanctions will not be suspended, but will extend for years. Politseks, even the most hated, let go of the wild, despite the fact that I do not want to free them at all. And when the news that is clearly injuring the national leader comes from Stockholm that Svetlana Aleksievich gave the Nobel Prize in literature, it is impossible to curse her along with the award. And you can’t get silent too.

And we must congratulate the laureate and still express joy about the award and say something neutral-approving. Type: "She wrote normal works, she has an appropriate style." Yes, and entrust the Minister of Education to make any encouraging statement. Say, the books of Aleksievich will now be studied in high school, and they are held at the calls for a long time. Nowhere, of course, in Belarus Aleksievich they will not study and will not study, but the situation is such that to congratulate, to rejoice and promise to rejoice and promise.

Another thing is now that the sanctions are lifted and you can liberate. And finally speak out from the heart, removing the mother-home, which is not chosen, and in general parents, and their native land. And about the puffs of dirt, poured out from behind the hill, certainly bend, following the Old Soviet-Soviet immortal tradition. To work, in short, this dissident, as in the old years on political information at the state farm. And reward the true patriot, in the peak of Belarusophobic. Here is happiness! Here are the right ...

A separate question, so far unresolved, is how the Stealon Lukashenko will enjoy his integral rights. It has already happened, and more than once that he won the election - and began the methodical beating of the disagreements. Despite the faces.

However, the situation in the world has now changed a lot, and the dad is not the last European dictator, and he has to survive, establishing connections with the West, and his enemy is now much worse than America and Europe combined. Not to mention Svetlana Aleksievich. Lukashenko is free to act as he wants and say what he wants, but the price of actions and words every day is becoming more and more for him. In general, it is not known how his fate will be further and who he will brand and punish tomorrow, and whom to reward and praise. But we know what patriotism is and what freedom is. In Belarus.
