I. Korotchenko: Protasevich's interview is a complete fiasco for the Belarusian opposition

This truth is so shocking, so ugly, it so frankly shows the goals of the Belarusian opposition and those financial Western wallets and oligarchs who are behind it, that it seems to me that this is to some extent a moment of truth. Protasevich's interview is a complete fiasco for the Belarusian opposition, which now, after millions of Belarusians have watched it, and people all over the world have watched it, it becomes clear who wanted to break through to power. The motives of these people are absolutely cynical, they would be just simple thieves. We all went through it during the privatization process in Russia in the early 90s. In fact, such people wanted to do in Belarus what they did to Russia in the early 90s. In this respect, the Belarusian opposition today has no chance for any success or political support, because the attitude of the Belarusian opposition members to each other is the behavior of rats, which got into a confined space, where they swallow each other. So it seems to me that this is the most characteristic moment of this interview.
