  • Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya – on the conviction of Tatsiana Kuzina and Valeryia Kastsiuhova

    March 17, 2023

    Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya: “Today, the Belarusian 'court' sentenced Tatsiana Kuzina and Valeryia Kastsiuhova to 10 years in prison each. They are well-known representatives of the expert community in Belarus. Any sane government in such a difficult time for the country would prefer to tap into their intellectual potential.

    But in our country, different rules apply: the authorities prefer to keep loyal and silent servants and expel or imprison real experts. They do not need intellectual resources and are not interested in making our country stronger. On the contrary, they want to stop progress to keep everything the way they like. History teaches us to look at where the country’s intellectuals are to see its future. And if you find them in prison, the country has no future”.
