Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya: “Dziady has been an important day for Belarusians since ancient times. Today, Belarusians follow the tradition and visit the graves of their relatives and friends. We feel warmth but also pain in our hearts when we remember our loved ones who are no longer with us.
But the people of Belarus are all a big family. So today, let us remember our Belarusian heroes together. Those who died during the protests. Those who died in prison. Those who died in the war, fighting for the freedom of Ukraine and Belarus. Memories of them live in our hearts, in my heart too. And their courage and dignity inspire us to continue fighting for a better future that we all dream of”.
