Melyantsou: Belarusian regime is benefiting from Ukrainian crisis

The Lithuania Tribune spoke to Dzianis Melyantsou, Senior Analyst at the Belarusian Institute for Strategic Studies, who came to the Riga Conference 2014. Belarusians are inclined to support Russia’s actions in Ukraine, he says, but since the Belarusian society still has a very deep trauma from World War Two, it is concerned about the military action in eastern Ukraine.
