Summary/Abstract: Russians predominantly stand in solidarity with Belarus. Taking into account the extremely painful reforms of the 1990s, many Russians considered the Belarusian model as the most attractive option of post-Soviet development. Hence, it is no coincidence that Lukashenka quickly became more popular among Russians than Boris Yeltsin.
