Belarus Detention of deputy opposition officials and deportation one after another at 4:59 on September 8th
In Belarus, where tensions have risen after the presidential election, there has been a series of detention and deportation of anti-government executives, and the support of the opposition has been increasingly criticized by the Lukashenko administration for its powerful approach.
In Belarus, protests against President Lukashenko's election in last month's presidential election have been running for nearly a month. I'm strengthening.
On the 7th, in the capital city of Minsk, a leading executive of the “Coordination Council”, Mr. Maria Kolesnikova, is said to have been taken away by several masked persons and detained by security authorities.
Of the seven members of the executive council, two have been detained and one has been deported outside the country, and one escaped oppression and escaped to neighboring Poland. There are only two executives working in Belarus: Nobel Prize Laureate author Alexevich and a male lawyer.
While the function of the executive committee, which has been the driving force of protests, is weakened, the protests against Lukeshenko's regime's powerful methods are increasingly criticized by the opposition supporters as "political repression." Further long-term activities are expected.
