Pavel Latushka, head of NAM, discussed with Artsiom Brukgan, deputy head of NAM, how Lukashenko intends to reappoint himself to the presidency he has usurped, and who is assisting him in this endeavor.
"We can very clearly define who Lukashenko is by the company he keeps, surrounded by murderers, criminals, representatives of the 'Russian world', and hardened propagandists. Well-known to Belarusians for involvement in the murder of Roman Bondarenko are Baskov, 'the clown in uniform' Krivonosov, Zhuk, Eismont, and others. They all prove the saying: 'Tell me who your confidants are, and I'll tell you who you are'".
Lukashenko understands that the majority of Belarusians are against him
"If many Belarusians plan to go to the polling stations, likely due to fears of repression for boycotting, then we understand that the majority of them will vote against all. Obviously, nobody wants to support Lukashenko, because he is guilty of repression and ruthless treatment of the Belarusian people. As for the other, so-called candidates — nobody even knows them".
Propaganda works only for Lukashenko
"In the last one and a half months, the dictator has been mentioned in propaganda media 800 times. His nearest competitor, Oleg Gaidukevich, 14 times. Kanopatskaya, Khizhnyak, Syrankov — between 10 and 14 times. Can you imagine the difference?"
There will be no international standards in the elections in Belarus
"The regime has not registered a single alternative candidate. There are no independent electoral commissions. Belarus no longer has free media or opposition parties. Meanwhile, Lukashenko keeps thousands of political prisoners in jails. The dictator is afraid of competition".
