  • Results of the Belarusian Anti-War Movement for May 28

    May 29, 2022

    Any Belarusian can join the Movement and choose from numerous options to resist the war and Belarus' regime.  

    Here is an overview of the Movement on May 28. 

    Support for Ukrainians and Belarusians    

    • Acceptance of Belarusians’ applications for humanitarian visas and residence permits in Poland will commence in July.
    • Counselors of the Belarusian platform WEMAYHELP 2.0 help those affected by the war in Ukraine recover their mental health.
    • Belarusians of Batumi, Georgia, rallied in support of Ukraine.
    • London residents held a rally of solidarity with Belarus’ political prisoners.
    • Belarusians recorded a Belarusian-language cover of Stefania, Ukraine’s Eurovision-winning song.

    Resistance

    • Partisans of Kastsiukouka held an anti-war picket.
    • Belarusians wrote anti-war inscriptions in Hrodna.
    • Minsk residents picketed in support of Eduard Babaryka, who has been in prison for two years for being the son of 2020 presidential candidate Viktar Babaryka.

    Sabotage

    • The Hajun project, which monitors the movements of Russian troops in Belarus, released an operational summary for May 27
    • Hajun also reviewed the regime's propaganda coverage of the war in Ukraine for May 20. Propagandists claim that the stunning success of the “special operation” in Ukraine, which lasts for 4 months already despite plans to capture Kyiv in 4 days, causes “hysteria in the West”. 

    Awareness campaign

    • Ukrainian presidential adviser Oleksiy Arestovych explained why Lukashenka needs his “people's militia”. The formation of “militia” in Belarus was announced this week.
    • Belarusian activists in exile told in an interview why they support Ukraine. “I can't live through a crisis without doing nothing”.
    • The Chestnaja Gazeta underground media outlet new issue features the story of a Russian military man who pleaded guilty to murdering an unarmed Ukrainian, Natallia Dulina's story about her arrest, an interview with Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, who entered the presidential race exactly 2 years ago, and much more. 
    • “Russian propaganda wants to make Belarus part of the "Russian world", said Pavel Latushka in an interview with the Austrian media Zeit Online and the Polish Super Express.
