People say that Belarus is ‘Europe’s last dictatorship’…but that doesn’t reflect the truth. Belarus is stuck under an oppressive regime that needs to end. It is a regime that stamps out dissent with its special and secrete police services, capturing, interrogating and imprisoning those brave enough to speak out.

Putin is propping up that regime. Keeping a dictator in power to to protect his own regime at home. Putin is using Belarus in his conflict in Ukraine, he even launched his attack on Kyiv. To keep Ukraine free, and safe from further attack, we must also help free Belarus from Putin’s grip.
