Quotation from "Master and Margarita" (1929-1940), by Mikhail Bulgakov. Woland's words to Berlioz during their meeting at the Patriarch's Ponds in Moscow: "- Yes, man is mortal, but that would be half the trouble. The bad thing is that he is sometimes suddenly mortal, that's the trick! ". Shortly after this meeting, Berlioz died after being hit by a tram. ___________________________________ But if we ask the old Roman question: who benefits? Cui bono? Turkey and China demonstrate that they want to see Belarus as an independent player. Ukraine is in no hurry to recognise Tikhanovska. Perhaps it is Makiej's long-standing personal connections that have contributed to this position. Only Russia is interested in absorbing Belarus in exchange for oblivion of the blitzcringe in Ukraine. By the way, Makei's son resigned from the Belarusian Foreign Ministry in 2020 (!)
