It's a common mistake comparing Ukraine situation with Belarus. In Belarus we don't fight between pro-EU or pro-Russia. We have deep connections with Russia. Everyone speaks russian language.
Our fight is about basic human rights. It's about nation-wide abuse. Everyone in Belarus feel like they being raped and tortured and now the rapist is saying to us - "hey it's your fault that you was raped". A 16-years old boy who was tortured by the police(and it's not a figure of speech https://www.voiceofbelarus.com/how-to-save-timur/ https://www.voiceofbelarus.com/how-to-save-timur/) and who was in coma — arrested again.
If your question about the violence from the people - i don't believe it will happen, because this is exactly what Lukashenko wants. He sold us to Russia. We have so-called Union state with Russia where Putin have legal right to move here his troops if people will turn peaceful protests to the so-called Maidan.
Without Russia, Belarus would be free already.
