22 years have passed since April, 26 the tragic date for Belarus. The greatest technological disaster has irreparable consequences for our country. About 2/3 of the radioactive fallout landed in Belarus and polluted approximately 1/5 of the territory and 20% of the population. The first wave of short half-life radionuclides covered almost entire Belarus though a part of them was forced to accumulate on purpose (not to let them reach Moscow). Everything was done with criminal secrecy so the people had no chance to escape. |

It’s a great date for us! The most curious friends of the project piled up a lot of questions. HOW did it all start? Few people can recall how it all started. We remember the winter of 2007/ it all began with an idea and then our free will put us on the right track, soon we saw a banner “Make your own Belarusian site!” following the link we opened the webpage of the Belarusian Youth Movement of America. It’s a website of those Belarusians who immigrate to America or were born there. They are true patriots and help Belarus whenever they have a chance. They have made their choice and by buying web hosting and domains they support those who desire to create Belarusian sites. |
