Belarus under the “Russian World”: Hybrid Aggression of the Kremlin

This collection of analytical papers offers an in-depth examination of how Belarus is transforming under the growing pressure and ideological expansion of the Kremlin’s so-called “Russian world.” The studies analyze the hybrid instruments of Moscow’s influence — from culture and education to religion and regional cooperation — and their impact on Belarusian sovereignty, European security, and democratic resilience.
The publication brings together five key papers:

  1. Belarus under the “Russian World”: Hybrid Aggression of the Kremlin (policy brief)
  2. In the Trap of the “Russian World”: How to Preserve Belarusian and European Identities in Culture and Education
  3. Religious Communities of Belarus in the Shadow of the “Russian World”
  4. Between Strasbourg and Moscow: Cross-Border Cooperation of Belarusian Regions
  5. Investing in Change, not Isolating: How the West Can Support the Democratization of Belarus
Together, these policy papers provide strategic insights and recommendations for democratic actors and European policymakers on how to counter the ideological and institutional expansion of the “Russian world,” while strengthening Belarus’s European identity and independence.
