Отлично делают!

Казалось бы зачем Америке Беларусь? Вот не верится, чтобы в Беларуси подняли голос в защиту скажем Новой Зеландии, пусть даже не бескорыстно. В общем кому как, а мне понравилось.

Нас падтрымалi цудоўныя людзі,

Якія знішчаюць нашу планету,

Забудзьма пра санкцыі і парушэнні,

Нагнемся і скажам ім: "Дзякуй за гэта!"

[MrYanek74]
