    Here is an overview of the Movement for the week of June 13-19.

    Support for Ukrainians and Belarusians

    • Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, Pavel Latushka, the Coordination Council and other representatives of the democratic forces sent a joint letter to EU leaders. The leaders of the democratic forces called for supporting the EU candidacies of Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova, as well as for reflecting in the final document of the EU Council the European perspective for Belarus after democratic changes. 
    • In a year of work on the eHealth.by platform, more than 12 500 patients and 140 doctors have joined it. At the moment we have 64 different specialties represented, the list of which is constantly expanding.
    • Valery Kavaleuski, Tsikhanouskaya’s representative on foreign affairs, reported from Kyiv, where he is working on solving key problems: the frozen bank accounts of Belarusians, the inability to renew residence permits and Lukashenka's responsibility for this war.
    • The BYSOL Foundation donated a car to defenders of Ukraine, as well as 30 knee pads and 30 tactical gloves. The funds for it were raised by Belarusians.
    • The DAR Initiative and the Dapamoga NPO purchased and handed over 50 tourniquets for the fighters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
    • Tsikhanouskaya’s Office held meetings with representatives of Meta, TikTok and Google. At the meetings, the promotion of Belarusian content and Belarusian media, the blocking of propaganda and other issues were discussed.
    • Belarusians have created a manual for women who have suffered from violence during war, occupation, or in prison.
    • Pavel Latushka, head of the National Anti-Crisis Management, had a working meeting with German Ambassador to Poland Arndt Freytag von Loringhoven. 
    • Belarusians in Lviv delivered another batch of humanitarian aid.
    • A Belarusian woman organized a co-working space in Berlin for war refugees.
    • Simplification of migration for Belarusians, issuance of visas, and support for the European perspective for Belarus: these are the results of Ms. Tsikhanouskaya’s visit to Portugal. There she met with the President, the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and other politicians, not only to remind about Belarusians and Belarus, but also to achieve simplification of migration.
    • Belarusians in London, Vilnius, Warsaw, Bialystok, Torun, Berlin and Sint-Niklaas held demonstrations in support of Ukrainians, Belarusians and political prisoners. 

    Resistance

    • Partisans of Kastyukouka came out to picket in support of political prisoners and Belarusians.
    • In Barauliany, Belarusians held a demonstration in support of Ukraine.
    • Dziarzhynsk partisans send fiery greetings to local enforcement officers.
    • Minsk residents of Chyzhouka supported Belarusian political prisoners and journalists.

    Sabotage

    • BYPOL continues to tell about the deeply rotten system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Lukashenka regime. In the example of one of the typical representatives, they demonstrate the degree of moral decay and intellectual degradation of the country's law enforcement system.

    Awareness campaign

    • The new issue of the Belarusski Vestnik underground outlet tells how exports and imports have fallen, private businesses are taken away by the enforcement officers, and deputies come up with repressive laws. Belarusians distribute underground media to counter the regime's propaganda.

    • A new issue of Chestnaja Gazeta has been released: it tells how Belarus lacks doctors and nurses, how Belarusians defend Ukraine, and what is known about the employee of Naftan who passed away.
    • A new leaflet Protest Homiel was released: it tells about rail partisans, the bombing of Ukraine by planes that take off from Belarusian airfields and “mobilization exercises” in the Homiel region.
    • Valery Kavaleuski, the head of the Cabinet of Tsikhanouskaya’s Representatives, in an interview with Ukrainian media, told how Belarusians help Ukraine and why it was necessary to open Tsikhanouskaya’s Representative Office in Kyiv. 
    • Belarusians are working on blocking propaganda channels.
    • Radio Svaboda has released the second season of its podcast with Dr. Uladzimir Martau, one of the most famous fighters against COVID and against lies of officials.
