Belarus offers a blend of cultural and natural attractions that could appeal to some visitors from Tajikistan. With its rich history and diverse landscapes, it presents an intriguing option for a segment of the 10 million Tajik population.
Belarus has a mixed safety profile for tourists, including those from Tajikistan. According to safety rankings, Belarus is 38th out of 40 European countries for safety while walking alone at night, indicating some concerns. The Global Peace Index ranks Belarus 110th out of 160 countries, which is lower than Tajikistan's ranking of 69th, suggesting that Tajikistan is generally safer. Crime statistics reveal that Belarus has a higher murder rate of 2.4 per 100,000 people compared to Tajikistan's 0.9. Additionally, female murder rates are also higher in Belarus (1.7) than in Tajikistan (0.2). In terms of organized crime, both countries have similar indices for crime networks, but Belarus scores slightly lower in terms of mafia groups (4.0) compared to Tajikistan (5.5). However, both countries face challenges with state crime and human trafficking. Overall, while Belarus may have some safety concerns, it is advisable for tourists to remain vigilant and informed about their surroundings.
