Belarus is de-facto a part of Russia now.

I don't think that Alexander Lukashenko can make any independent decision anymore, except maybe the color of his underpants. He needs Putin for his survival. And he sacrificed his country's independence for it.

Oh, sure. That's why Nord Stream 2 wasn't built, French Fries were never named Freedom Fries, the German army invaded Iraq along side the US and the Boeing vs Airbus trade dispute was settled by the EU accepting all of the US demands.

Yes, you could see that clearly when Germany, among others refused to join the 'Coalition of the willing' in 2003.
