At first glance I thought it was only Belarus who opposed it. That'd be a weird world where totalitarian government opposes totalitarian control.
Let me guess: You are an American with no clue about Geography / foreign politics?
Belarus isn't in the EU. Its position doesn't matter, independent from which side they are on.
Belarus is part of the big grey blob in the east of the map (alongside Ukraine and Russia). So the map doesn't state anything about Belarus' opinion on the topic.
In case you thought the dark green blob in central Europe is Belarus: those are Germany and Poland.
No, I'm Belarusian.
