“In this case, the American side is implementing the classic scenario. Of course, I would like to, so that the crisis ends and the current government, and her opponents found a common language without interference from abroad.

In Belarus, not the first attempt to undermine the economy is being made. Tikhanovskaya does not hide this and speaks directly about plans to arouse the anger of the workers and by their efforts to bring instability.

Much depends on, will the process go through negotiations and consultations. If contradictions escalate, strikes risk becoming permanent. A similar thing happened in Poland. Technologies are known and tested. However, the size of the threat to the Belarusian economy depends on the degree of organization of the opponents of the current government.
