The world needs to speak up loudly and more importantly act on whats happening in Belarus. Innocent protesters are being tortured, beaten, killed, jailed for wanting the fair elections. Meanwhile Putin is salivating like a dog plotting his next moves

Presidential palace lit in solidarity with those who are peacefully defending freedom and demanding free, fair and democratic elections in #Belarus. Violence must be replaced by meaningful dialogue, openness and reconciliation.


Things are getting very dangerous in Belarus and predictably Putin is preparing for his "reunification" that he has wanted for a long time. Europe cannot allow another invasion

Putin has gotten his opening. Lukashenko has asked him for help in silencing his people who are speaking out against rigged election. Beatings, torture, aggressive action by KGB thugs haven't worked so far. People continue coming out to unseat this illegitimate dictator
