New Zealand joins the UK, Canada, Australia and the EU in condemning the sham presidential elections held in Belarus on 26 January. No election can be considered free and fair when it is held in a climate of fear and ongoing repression. We urge Belarus to uphold its international human rights obligations, including restoring an open civil society. https://t.co/NZVkbV7Qx4
