– How to cleanse Belarus from Russian influence? It remains staggeringly pervasive.

– Well, not so much. I think that it is on top, but it did not take its roots, and therefore a very simple answer is to strengthen Belarusian influence. Again, this is not some theoretical reasoning. So I look at what is happening in Ukraine, what I see and have seen before. When I met young people outside of Ukraine who spoke Ukrainian to each other, well, my heart rejoiced. 20 years old, it was a couple of young, beautiful people who were in love, sure. This was back in the early 2000s.

And we had it. Before Lukashenka came to power, Belarusian culture, really Belarusian culture, was developing by leaps and bounds. And television is the most important thing. We had great TV shows in Belarusian. Everyone was watching them with pleasure, and they were not inferior in ratings to those from Moscow. Therefore, everything is there, and I will tell you that the culture has grown very noticeably during this time. It is precisely because people are looking, firstly, for new ways to express their attitude towards this crazy stuff that is going on in Belarus. And secondly, they are looking for an opportunity to express their attitude as clearly as possible. Of course, now, mostly, this can be done abroad. But this is the Belarusian language, it won't disappear anywhere. And now it has spread largely. 2020 has spread Belarus all over the world. Belarus will get together.

– The last question. How to win?

– There will be a repeat of 2020. I want to believe in this exact scenario. Because all the other alleged political scientists prefer to discuss some kind of palace coup or some other coup. But this is not a solution, this is not a way out. I think that the protest potential has been driven into prisons today, but this regime has fewer and fewer resources. Now, Belarus and Belarusians are facing the most difficult moment in its history, for the individual, for the culture, for the language. This, you know, like you dive and it's not so deep, and you already have the opportunity to push off from the bottom and you can see where you can push off. I think this will happen soon.
