Ideas to lift sanctions on Lukashenka & Putin will only scratch the surface of the food shortage crisis but will encourage more Russia's aggression in Ukraine & new repressions in Belarus. All concerned parties must put pressure on Russia to lift the blockade on the Odessa port.
Sanctions on Russia have no connection to the unfolding global food crisis. The sole reason for shortages, rising prices, and threat of hunger is the Russian military physically blocking 22 million tons of Ukrainian food exports in our seaports. Demand Moscow to end its blockade.

What a story in just one year: an ordinary woman stands up for her husband & challenges a dictator in his prime, mobilizes voters, wins elections, defies regime's attempt to muzzle her, encircles Lukashenka to free Belarus from oppression -
@Tsihanouskaya
's traits - focus & grit.
On this day in 2020, I decided to run for president of Belarus after my husband Siarhei Tsikhanouski was denied registration. I applied my documents & became a candidate for the election. What a year! My aim remains the same – make Belarus free & release all political prisoners.

Grateful to Ambassador Strohal
@CStrohal
for his insight for
@Tsihanouskaya
team in navigating complex international mechanisms. Belarusians want negotiations with the regime leading to elections with credible results to be recognized by Belarusians as legitimate.

Departing DC for Vilnius then Kyiv. Enjoyed a joint
@iSANS_CEE
deep dive on the growing Belarus agenda with a range of USG institutions, analysts, media. The practical dimension of
@Tsihanouskaya
recognition will continue expanding to benefit the Belarusian nation and people.
Starting for Washington DC for a series of briefings by joint
@Tsihanouskaya
-
@iSANS_CEE
team with the US government and expert community. Russian war in Ukraine, Belarus resistance, implications for Lukashenka for his role in starting the war and steps ahead are on the agenda.

This is sickening how
@BelarusMFA
has degraded into inhumanity to cover the tracks of Lukashenka's crimes.
Anatoly Glaz and Vladimir Makei must be put on the EU/US sanctions list for participating in tortures of Raman Pratasevich.
We have just walked out. Not taking part when he is clearly there under duress.

Lukashenka's regime is ready to talk to anyone in the world but to the Belarusian people. This is who they fear most. They can't deceive people any more. Violence, repressions, lawlessness have brought the situation past the point of no return. Belarus demands change.
The Belarusian side remains open to dialogue and is always ready to listen to the proposals of official Vilnius on resolving all issues in the legal field, primarily in the interests of ordinary Belarusians and Lithuanians

Groundbreaking decision by
@UNECOSOC
to accredit Belarusian human rights defenders
@Belhelcom
- the first ever NGO from Belarus to get such status
@UN
. There will be a voice of real Belarus in the UN and this voice matters. Congratulations!

Democratic forces of Belarus now have an office in

. It was occupied by dictator's reps before the regime was kicked out due to co-aggression against Ukraine. The Lukashenka's regime is losing agency, legitimacy & international space.

One of the memorable moments in
@Tsihanouskaya
visit to Berlin. This ovation in the Bundestag is addressed to all Belarusians, everyone who believes and acts to win freedom. Notably, it was the first working Bundestag plenary session after election, also discussed border crisis.

Media in Belarus is under lawless attack. Journalists are arrested, fined and jailed because they report the truth - what dictatorships are badly scared of. Thanks
@DominicRaab
for highlighting this dire situation. UK's practical steps are much needed to stop violence in Belarus.

IMF member states should initiate suspension by
@IMFNews
@KGeorgieva
of Lukashenka's regime access to these reserves until there's a democratically elected government in Belarus. The dictator grossly mismanaged the problem of COVID and will the funds for more repressions.
It is crucial not to cooperate with illegitimate Lukashenka's regime terrorizing Belarusians & the international community. I call on
@IMFNews
not to allocate $1bn to the regime & freeze access to these reserves until a new free & fair presidential election is held in Belarus.

Three days ago Lukashenka warned Belarusian athletes that if they win no medals
@Olympics
, they "better not return to Belarus". Then he tries to forcibly bring Tsymanouskaya back using KGB methods as if the regime owns athletes. This is despicable and must be stopped.
Belarusian athlete Krystsina Tsymanouskaya was forced by the regime to leave the
@Olympics
in Tokyo & fly to Belarus after criticizing Belarus' management of the national team during the games. She's afraid to come back to Minsk. No athlete should be forced this way.

Lithuania has become a model of genuine values based foreign policy, providing Belarusian people with broad and nuanced solidarity, proving that principles and consistency matter most. Minister

Please join me in congratulating Linas
@LinkeviciusL
on receiving the Global Belarusian Solidarity Award for his "will and political strength that helped to melt the ice of dictatorship in Belarus". Linas was the first who met

On

we must remember about hundreds of thousands of Belarusians forced to leave Belarus because of repressions. The regime attacks them even abroad.
Grateful to

@UNmigration
