White-Red-White Bride Answers Lukashenka

Inna Zaitsava spoke about her life in Switzerland.

Speaking at the Republican Pedagogical Council on August 27, Lukashenka remembered the Belarusians in exile again. He said that "no one needs them" abroad, and teachers and doctors are washing dishes, because "who will give them a good job?". White-Red-White bride Inna Zaitsava answered the dictator. Zerkalo publishes her response:

"Lukashenka (as well as propaganda) constantly says that we are not needed here. I think it's just an attempt to play to the need to belong to some group. This is pure psychology. Person is a social being and needs to be with others. This message seems to say that there, abroad, you will feel bad and lonely.

But, firstly, this is not true. Specifically, we feel very good in Switzerland. As if we were in the new Belarus, only for some reason everyone speaks German. At all stages, from the kindergarten to work, my children and I were surrounded by attention. People here are brought up on the principles of freedom and equality, and they have created a society in which any person will find a place.

Secondly, no one in Belarus really needs you, if you sit at home with your belly up. Well, will someone be waiting for you with open arms? But if you are an interesting, able-bodied, accomplished person, you will be in demand in any society, in any environment on your own.

But even in this case, it is not a fact that you will be able to get a job in Belarus. You was seen in protests — they just won't take you with at least three higher educations. And even if they do, what's the point? I have a friend who works part-time in college and gets BYN 500. The full rate is a thousand." That's the income of her colleague, who is raising a child with a disability alone. "Do you think they have enough money to live? And this is highly skilled work — work about which Lukashenka says that 'you will not get this in the West', where 'no one needs you'. So, should these women with such a salary be warmed by the idea that someone needs them in Belarus?"
