Please note, in this anxiety-provoking period where good news is more scarce than pedestrians on the streets, the words of former Barcelonan Alexander Hleb should not lead to optimism in this tense context of the global coronavirus pandemic.
At 38, the player who also went through Arsenal is now playing in Belarus, at BATE Borisov. According to him, there, we are far, very far from experiencing this health crisis in the same way as in France, Germany, Spain or Italy. What augurs a worsening of the situation in this country of nearly 10 million inhabitants.
No containment in Belarus
“Everyone knows what is going on in countries like Italy and Spain. It is a dramatic situation with increasingly terrible consequences. But at home in Belarus, our politicians continue to believe that this virus is not important and that there is no point in confinement, laments the midfielder in the columns of Sportbild . I spend most of my free time with my family in my house, but I find that the streets and restaurants are always full of people. "
If one refers to what is happening today in Italy or in France, it is however only a question of time before confinement becomes there also the new way of life of the Belarusians. But by then, the virus is likely to spread at high speed within the population ... The Belarusian championship has not closed its shop either. It is one of the last in Europe to always stand under normal conditions.
