  • Is it a marketing video for Minsk? :D Its look very nice, clean and sympathic ;) I think most of the people from Europe will like it.

  • Amazing nice and clean city. New York is full of graffiti, homeless people, crime. Minsk is safe, clean, pretty girls and beautyfull. I will go there in summer I hope when I'm able to get a visa (that's pretty difficult). Пака! Приветий для Голандия!

  • @vadimik1000 Before devaluation average salary was 500$ (of course common people, not officials and the other), after the devaluation became something around 200-250$, and may even lower, because will be more devaluations,reforms as the result it'll be the reason of future protests and maybe Revolution!

  • @vadimik1000 I was meant about easthern belaussia . In Minks situation is quite better.Technically Belarus is on bankruptcy with inflation taking over + 18 % last 12 months and devaluation of By ruble going over 50%

  • @MrILGRISO в Минске 100 долларов не кто не получает!! там зарплата гораздо выше!!!!

  • I am an American. I have been to Minsk. Would like to go back one day soon and see more of it.

    Yes, I am sure your comment is correct but you forgot to add a few things: New York is freedom of speach, political ideas and full of high quality jobs. Minsk not so much ...

  • @MrILGRISO

    Isnt that just what characterizes eastern countries? If you go outside Belarus i dont think its very different.

  • @VulturCadens Im talking about most of people not a single hairdresser. Go to easthern belarus and then tell me what you see. Medium salary is 250/300 but in some village, if you are lucky to find a job, max you get is 100.
