Dear SEELANGers,
For those of you interested in the situation of the Russian language
outside the Russian Federation, here's an interesting piece from
the BBC Russian Service about recent developments in Belarus and
allegations in the Russian press of discrimination against Russian speakers:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/russian/international/2013/12/131217_belorussian_language_discrimination.shtml
This is how the Russian news agency Regnum reported on recent developments
on the "language front" in Belarus:
http://www.regnum.ru/news/polit/1745379.html
Lastly, here's a piece (in Belarusian) about the new bar in Minsk offering
discounts to Belarusian-speaking customers:
