It is already becoming a tradition. Women who continue to stubbornly oppose the regime of dictator Aliaksandr Lukashenko will reign in Minsk on Saturday.

Today, however, women are running into the streets for another reason. September 19 is the day of Vytis and the historical flag of Belarus: white, red, white. With the liberation of Belarus from the Soviet Union in 1991, this flag became the official flag of an independent state. True, four years later, Lukashenko returned the slightly modified flag of Soviet Belarus. So today, all Belarusians are urged to decorate balconies and windows with historical symbols that, according to activists, frighten Lukashenko and his henchmen as light vampires.

Meanwhile, the dictatorship is already going through the most painful place for opposition activists: children.

“Belarus continues with its retaliatory actions and this time they are directed against the children of the most active opponents. How does this work? The opposition calls the militia stations, where they are detained, for example, for several days. During their their children are in kindergartens or schools When parents do not come to pick up their children at the agreed time, educators or teachers refer the children to daycare services, without prejudice to the children having relatives. The children practically end up in orphanages. They can be removed from there, but it is necessary to present a large number of documents and “papers”, which the government is in no rush to hand over to the opposition, “says journalist Denis Dudinskis.

And this is an illustration of the methods of coping with power told by journalist Denis Dudinskis. People are greeted with applause and shouts of support from opposition spokesperson Elena Lazarčik, who has just taken her six-year-old son Artiom from the orphanage. The boy was found here after officers arrested his mother for the first time two days ago for attending unauthorized demonstrations, took away his phone, and educators turned Artyom over to services without notifying the father, grandmother, or aunts. with which they had contacts. Fortunately, the mother was able to retrieve the son quickly.

“You must always be prepared not to escape the pressure that the people on the other side of the barricades have no principles. These people will use any method to break your will and destroy it. They will not stop because they are women, children, etc. If you are a revolutionary, if you go out into the streets, you must be prepared for anything, ”said activist Andrejus Michailovičius.

Sviatliana Cichanouskaya, for her part, has been announcing since tomorrow a week of solidarity with Belarus and urging the peoples of the world to support the peaceful aspiration of the Belarusians to free themselves from the dictatorship.

“Organize rallies and protests, wave the historic flag of Belarus and your country, illuminate the facades of buildings in white, red, white, write letters to political prisoners and show solidarity in any other way. Wherever you are, join us, “said S. Cichanouskaja.

Already on Monday, Cichanouskaya will meet with the foreign ministers of the European Union in Brussels. The meeting will take place before community politicians meet to discuss sanctions on Minsk. However, the Belarusian Foreign Minister condemned the meeting, saying it was open interference in the country’s internal affairs.
