the weird thing with that is despite having almost identical languages a culture we don't actually have that much in common historically besides that weird episode when czechs convicted the west that there is such a thing as a "czechoslovak" to fuck over the germans in their territory. Slovaks are catholic even tho no one really gives a shit about that and traditional yea

eh, Lukas embargo's were always more posturing than real shit, and he lifted them before when they lacked something
This time it's different though, worst harvest in a decade or so coupled with very high prices in Russia means that only the absolute dregs (green, rotten etc) stayed in Belarus so even importing won't fix it
Luka already tried to fix the situation by imposing fines on sellers that lack potatoes kek, but it won't fool anyone because people remember he was the one advocating the exports to Russia
>There is conspiracy theory in Russia that claims potatoes were introduced in Europe to turn people into obedient slaves because they erase long term memory (also making them forget some cataclysmic events/nuclear wars two hundreds years ago).
>Also tomatoes, bell pepper, aubergine are literally poison and we should return to turnip.
>Coincidentally it first appeared when Russia was having problems importing potatoes a few years ago
I wonder if Belarus will try to fix their situation by spreading similar bullshit
