Lukashenka Remains ‘City Madman’

Carrying manure across fields and criticizing “corporations”.

In American reality, Lukashenka would most likely find himself in the role of a kind of rural “character” — working on a tractor, delivering manure across corn fields, and enthusiastically criticizing “corporations” in the evenings. Without business skills and experience in the private sector, he would hardly have been able to build a successful farm or rise to the role of an entrepreneur.

In theory, he could have tried to run for a local council or even a city parliament. But most likely, it would have been difficult for him to overcome even the initial level for election to any position: his communist ideas and style would hardly have found support even at the local level. So Lukashenka would have remained one of those colorful “half-madmen” that can be found in every American town — a person whom everyone knows, but whom no one would dare to elect.
