<link>http://www.despiteborders.com/index.php?subaction=showfull&amp;id=1318205271&amp;archive=</link>
<description><![CDATA[Power ambitions again made Belarusian government to make wrong 
priorities. The perspective of economic hardships did not stop the 
authorities from splashing out while increasing the public spending 
before presidential elections in December 2010.&nbsp; Eventually Belarus 
witnessed economic default made of financial crisis, devaluation of 
Belarusian national currency, shortage of foreign currency, sharp rise 
of prices and urgent need of foreign loans to keep the country afloat...

<description><![CDATA[
The ghost of the Union State between Russia and Belarus is still  wandering in the halls of Kremlin although it no longer impresses  Russian authorities as something feasible. The idea of gradual  incorporation of Belarus into Russia attractive for Russian authorities  through the project of the Union State initiated in 1999, lost its sense  in this respect in 21st century, for Belarusian Government would not  allow the loss of state sovereignty. Thus the Union State appeared to be  in the end "strategical misunderstanding&#8221; between Belarus and Russia.  Referring to the fact that winding up the Union State would damage  Russia and Belarus' political image on international arena, the project  has acquired symbolical weigh and has been artificially sustained...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[
 Pridnestrovskaia Moldavskaia Respublica is going to celebrate its 20   anniversary since it declared independence. The people who created the   republic in a nation-wide unity became  disappointed by the situation in  Pridnestrovie today, after they  devolved power on the leaders of the  country.&nbsp; Many things happened  since 1990. There was a military  conflict with  Moldova in 1991-1992, a transition to market economy and  serious  transformations in the European and world scale. The change of  the political elites has been an urgent thing for many  times. There  have always appeared certain prerequisites to different  changes..]]></description>

<title>Carpathian Ruthenia or a new neighbour on the horizon?</title>
<link>http://www.despiteborders.com/index.php?subaction=showfull&amp;id=1281433717&amp;archive=</link>
<description><![CDATA[
   In the following lines I shall speak of a republic which strives to  compete with Ukrainian power in the Zakarpattia Oblast. The reason for  its origin is the fact that since 1991 Ukraine has been ignoring the  requests of Carpathian Rusyns, who supported the status of a special  self-governing administrative territory in the 1991 referendum by 78.2  percent of votes. This autonomy of Carpathian Rusyns has remained  unrealized until present time.&nbsp; Following many attempts to  negotiations with Ukrainian representatives, on 1 December, 2008, Rusyn  activists decided to declare the restoration of pre-Soviet status of the  Republic of Carpathian Ruthenia because according to Rusyn  representatives, Czechoslovakia doesn't exist any longer , and the only  way to realize this status is the declaration...]]></description>
