The question is not about homeland guys, but about which MODERN population resembles the ancient Slavic group(s) most. Juice did not precise what sort of similarity it is about, but we can assume in general, so will Belarusan population closest one? I believe it may be, however modern Belarus was home for some Jews, Tatars and Balts.

Please don't put Tatars and Jews in the same category as Balts when talking about Belarus. Their Balticness comes from ancient times not the Grand Duchy of Lithuania period.
