Effetto UE: Lituania vs Bielorussia – confronto della crescita del PIL pro capite 1995-2024

I Have a Dream that once Belarus will break free from Russian domination, it will join Europe and will flourish like never before

Russia has nothing to offer to the countries of Eastern and Central Europe. Only those run by tinpot dictators like Belarus prefer to remain a Russian colony, to secure the power of the leadership at the expense of their population.

Heck, even the countries in Central Asia are desperate to reduce their dependency on Russia and improve ties with the EU, knowing that it is in their best interest.

Choosing Russia means choosing poverty and no prospect of real improvement of people’s lives.

I mean Belarus sucks obviously, but this doesn’t make Lithuania look that great either?

Although it is a great achievement on paper, but the economic success is not equally distributed, and there are serious concerns about poverty levels in Lithuania:

So many questions: why post it now? why nominal gdp per capita? why 1995? why don’t you show [other effects](https://www.lrt.lt/en/news-in-english/19/2263911/lithuania-lost-a-million-citizens-to-emigration-how-did-it-happen)?

This sub has been filled with reposting crap ton of news and sadly the rare OC post is as shallow as many of the bot posts.
