Ms. Tsikhanouskaya and Secretary Blinken discussed the international response to the regime's actions. Ms. Tsikhanouskaya noted that the human rights situation is deteriorating, the repressions are intensifying, and the regime has started to trade Belarusian sovereignty. Lukashenka has lost his independence and is ready to return nuclear weapons to the country. Belarus is critical to European security and should be on the international agenda.
