Analytical Article no. 12. The Ideology of the “Russkiy Mir” and Belarus

Dr. Pavel Tereshkovich, “The Ideology of the “Russkiy Mir” and Belarus.” Belarus Research Network for Neighborhood Policy 2024

Read about the “Russkiy Mir” ideology and its influence in Belarus, facilitated by Lukashenka’s regime through media and educational channels. It presents a divided public opinion, highlighting “Pro-Europeans” who favor European alignment, “Pro-Russians” supporting integration with Russia, and a large “Unsettled” group with unclear views. Despite resistance to the ideology’s end goals, many Belarusians struggle with their national identity and may still resonate with some aspects of “Russkiy Mir.”
