Last night, the #Belarusian diaspora in the US lost one of its most prominent and respected representatives. #JankaZaprudnik was an activist, a journalist, a writer, and a historian who did so much for promoting #Belaursian culture globally. He died at the age of 97. R.I.P.

Two years after the Belarusian regime began an unprecedented wave of repression against dissidents, we present a data report on the situation. Right now, there are more than 1,100 political prisoners in #Belarus.

[Secretary Antony Blinken @SecBlinken]

Leaders should listen to their people’s peaceful protests. Instead, the Lukashenka regime charges peaceful demonstrators on fabricated claims of “terrorism” and threatens them with the death penalty. The United States will continue to hold human rights abusers to account.

#Belarus In 1937, NKVD executioners shot more than 100 members of the Belarusian intellectual elite. In the past years, Belarusians and diplomats attended Kurapaty - the site where they were buried. This year, due to repressions, we had to hold rallies all over the world instead.

[Congressman Bill Keating @USRepKeating]

Yesterday opposition leader Marya Kalesnikava and lawyer Maksim Znak received an unjust sentence for support for democracy in Belarus. This decision is abhorrent and I call for their immediate release, as well as all members of civil society in detention today. #freebelarus
