Election looming: Belarusians vent anger on Lukashenka

(ENG video) This year’s election campaign is gaining momentum: lots of Belarusians are spending hours in queques to sign for the nomination of a person or persons who have revealed their presidential ambitions. Indeed, the people’s active involvement is indicative of their fatigue with the 26-year rule of Alyaksandr Lukashenka. https://belsat.eu/en/?p=1425690

Thousands of people throughout the country lined up to put their signatures for ‘any on the list but for the incumbent president’. Especially large queues formed after popular vlogger Syarhei Tsikhanouski, a trustee and husband ofpresidential hopeful Svyatlana Tsikhanouskaya, had been detained in Hrodna on May, 29.

When reached by Belsat, many residents of Minsk who were waiting for their turn near Kamarouski Market expressed outrage over the authorities’ allegedly framing-up Tsikhanouski and initiating a criminal case against him. The interviewees also shared their opinions about the Belarusian leader’s longstanding presidency (watch the video above).
