Cancel Lukashenko Culture

(@vovatsesler)

The last time I checked, more than 10,000 Belarusians had been arrested for participating in demonstrations against dictator Alexander Lukashenko. Hundreds have been tortured and dozens recognized as political prisoners of his regime, which is being propped up by despots in Moscow.

The demands of protesters are not complicated:

1. Lukashenko must leave

2. Political prisoners must be released

3. New elections must be held

Belarus is a sovereign, independent country and its citizens can sort out the mess without outside interference. The last thing they need is a bunch of mask-wearing goons imported from Russia to maintain order or advice from Donald Trump.
