We are Europeans & we must return our country to Europe, where it historically belongs. We can't allow nine million Europeans to be forgotten or left to Putin. Our fight is not just for #Belarus but for the core principles that define Europe: democracy, freedom & human dignity. pic.twitter.com/dMasZIQOiX

Confronting the #Belarus dictator has always carried great risks. On May 7, 1999, politician Yury Zakharanka, a resolute opponent of Lukashenka, was kidnapped & likely killed by the regime's thugs. We must put an end to three decades of such horrible crimes by this dictatorship! pic.twitter.com/wq2EyJ3Teu

Another day, another dance of dictators on the nuclear keg. Lukashenka and his big friend Putin persist in their terrorist threats and attempts to scare people.
Belarusians are against the deployment of Russia's tactical nuclear weapons in our country.

Addressing Vytautas Magnus University students in Kaunas, @Tsihanouskaya emphasized the crucial need to distinguish between Belarus & Russia. Equalizing the people of these countries would only play into the hands of Putin & Lukashenka. Belarusians oppose the war against Ukraine. pic.twitter.com/6sR5r6bXCz
