  • Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya on the expelling Belteleradiocompany from the European Broadcasting Union

    January 25, 2021

    “International partners are no longer willing to cooperate with the regime. It is an important indicator of the regime's failure. The IIHF has canceled the ice hockey championship in Minsk because it does not agree to hold a sporting event in a country where people are tortured for their opinions.  And when the propaganda accuses Rene Fasel that he "could not bear the pressure", it sounds outrageous. According to their logic, Rene Fasel had to pretend that people were not killed in Belarus to appear to the propagandists as a "worthy person,".

    Propaganda is the foundation of the Lukashenka regime. This is a machine that has perfected over the years to distort the truth. Employees of state TV channels receive awards for their contribution to covering up crimes at the republican level. For the impressive defense of the regime against millions of deceived Belarusians.

    But there are privileges that Belarusians can take away from propaganda. The Eurovision broadcast is an excellent reason for BT to raise its rating and earn money from advertisers. And this is a reason for their pride. But does this company deserve such an honor? I support the Belarusian Cultural Solidarity Fund initiative and will demand to expel Belteleradiocompany from the European Broadcasting Union. As in the case of the ice hockey championship, I will discuss this with the EU foreign ministers. And I believe that together we will prove again: no one in the civilized world will cooperate with criminals”.
