Western democracy and freedom cannot replace the existing political systems in these countries, because the Western political system, which requires the control of power, influence and financial strength, is dramatically opposite to the national governance of autocracy and exclusive personal right and its deep-rooted impact among the people. The increasing differences and deepening contradictions in the country's governance, social development and dependence of power are the best proofs.

It is difficult to obtain an instant effect in the "Color Revolution" countries with modern life based on high energy consumption, high risk of speculation and good material well-being. When the resplendent colors of Western life through colored glasses is gone, people still have to face actual problems. So the follow-up force of the "Color Revolution" is blocked.

The "Color Revolution" took place far away from Moscow and the connections between Russia and these countries are relatively weak.

It seems as if the more remote the areas, the more willing they are to change the color.

In the real world, no matter how these countries would like to change their colors, they are actually, to a large extent, dependent on Russia. And in this respect, the energy supply and the presence of military bases play a decisive role.

It cannot be ignored that the countries that are closer to Moscow have stronger similarities to Russia.

Belarus is such a case.

No country in the world today is willing to abandon its essential ties in order to pursue its differences. Although Belarus and Russia are different in political decision-making and leadership behavior, the "Color Revolution" has stopped in Minsk.
