Belarus' New Cleanup Law Sparks Outrage Among Citizens
A new law in Belarus has sparked controversy among citizens, who are now required to clean snow and grass around their homes and vehicles. The law, which came into effect recently, has led to complaints from residents who feel it unfairly burdens them with tasks that should be handled by local authorities. One resident, who wishes to remain anonymous, shared his experience: "They came with a chainsaw and cut down my trees, then left the branches all over my property. Now I'm facing a fine for not cleaning it up myself!" The video shows a large pile of branches as evidence of the cleanup required. This incident highlights a growing concern among Belarusians about the government's increasing tendency to shift responsibilities for public maintenance onto individuals, adding to their already existing burdens. The government's response to these concerns remains to be seen, but the debate surrounding this law is likely to continue.
