The "Our Opinion" website is back to work.

This is good news for the Belarusian expert community, according to sociologist

Genadz Korshunau

.

"This means that repression, landings and forcing the disaffected abroad does not stop our activities," he wrote.

Several new texts appeared on the "NM" page, among which Korshunov's text with an analysis of the Russian-Ukrainian war and its consequences for Belarus.

"No matter how long the Russian-Ukrainian war lasted, Russia has already lost in it, it has lost strategically.

And not only because the world saw the inflated bubble of the military power of the Russian Federation and its "cotton" (although this is also very important).

The main thing is the exclusion of the former contender for the role of world leader from among the countries of the civilized world, now even the status of Russia as a gas-burning country, on which it was possible to continue for several more decades, and the one under question: the European (and with it the world) energy market is being rebuilt and does so unexpectedly quickly.

In the world of technology, Russia is also already somewhere on the verge, the war demonstrated this very convincingly.

And the sanctions localize Russian technological backwardness in the region of the industrial period — this is already a bygone era.

And no amount of import substitution or smuggling of innovation will restore exclusion from the research and technological process.

The same conclusion can be extended to the exclusion of Russian corporations from global production chains, you cannot replace them with China."

"Our opinion" is an online project that collects the analytical thoughts of Belarusian and foreign experts and scientists.

Almost all well-known Belarusian analysts and political scientists were published there.
