On May 28, the results of the Coordination Council election were announced. Eight electoral lists out of twelve announced were included in the third convocation. Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya held video calls with new delegates of the Coordination Council, as well as with members of the lists that did not make it to the body.
The Belarusian leader thanked the delegates for participating in the election and expressed support for those who were persecuted for their activity during the election campaign. The main topics of discussion were the role of the Coordination Council, priority areas of work, cooperation with the United Transitional Cabinet, and the ways the Coordination Council could strengthen the democratic forces.
“We are working for a common cause, and we share one common goal – a free Belarus”, the Belarusian leader commented on the online meetings. “It was important for me to hear everyone. I see that people who ran for the Coordination Council are willing to work. I am especially glad to see new people who have taken a big risk and joined political work”.
