Cracking Down on Scientists

Summary: As the EPO's war on workers and retirees escalates (breaking promises to scientists who work or worked as examiners) we find some similarities in Belarus, where some of the EPO's work has been outsourced to (Belarus is neither a member of the EU nor a member of the EPO)

IN Part 10 we saw how dictators in positions of power lead to a severe case of brain drain, just like in the EPO under the reign of narcissists like Benoît Battistelli and António 'F.' Campinos.



"Tomorrow we'll see how the EPO's strong partner in Minsk is doing."In the video above I express some of my personal views about Lukashenko's equivalent of 'North Korea in Europe' -- akin to some degree to what Campinos (and Battistelli before him) turned EPOnia into. Not even retirees can live in peace; they can leave, sure, unlike North Koreans... but their pension is being eroded retroactively and António 'F.' Campinos is cursing at staff for merely talking about such issues.

Tomorrow we'll see how the EPO's strong partner in Minsk is doing.
