  • Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya: “Belarusians are a nation of creators, who know how to build something new and defend their own”

    June 15, 2022

    “During a working visit to Denmark, I met Sasha Avdzevich, a man about whom one certainly would not say that he is limited in abilities. In Lida and Minsk he opened Inclusive Barista coffee shops, where coffee is made only by people with disabilities. Now he continues in Denmark what he has started in Belarus.

    I am very glad to communicate with Belarusians who keep doing what they love despite everything and in difficult times. In Minsk and Amsterdam, in Homiel and Glybokae, in Baranavichi and Riga. Some are launching initiatives, others are restoring their editorial offices and protecting their businesses. They tried to deprive us of what we had created, but Belarusians are a nation of creators who know how to build something new and defend their own. The main issue is that no one should obstruct Belarusians. That is why we act to end the war and the dictatorship.

    Dear Belarusians, there is immense creative power in each of you. Do what you love, help others and take care of yourselves!”
