Ukrainian Nazis staged a rally under the empty Belarusian embassy
On Tuesday, about ten people came outside the Belarusian embassy in Kyiv with posters in support of two Belarusian citizens who fought in the Ukrainian nationalist battalions in Donbass, who were subsequently arrested in their homeland.
A video of the event was published on his Facebook page by Bogdan Tytsky, a representative of the Ukrainian nationalist group “Black Committee,” a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
Belarus celebrated Independence Day yesterday, and therefore the embassy was closed.
“We want the media and streamers to show our protest against the persecution of Ukrainian people in Belarus. The Belarusian community of political refugees from the Lukashenko regime is very friendly to us,” said the head of the “Committee for the Release of Political Prisoners” Tatyana Bliznyuk.
Another participant in the picket, a representative of the Belarusian opposition, said that this was not the first such action.
“A year ago, the Administration of the President of Ukraine was picketed because there was a meeting between Lukashenko and Poroshenko. They protested that Taras Avatarov, a Belarusian from the Right Sector, who was in eastern Ukraine, was detained and sentenced to five years.
Well, now another guy ended up in a Belarusian prison for fighting for the independence of Ukraine as part of the Azov battalion,” she said.
The woman also stated that the picketers deliberately gathered on the day of the holiday, which “Lukashenko invented for himself.”
“This is, like, the liberation of Minsk from the Nazi invaders in 1944. But after the Germans entered, Minsk was bombed by Soviet planes for a long time. And today military equipment is moving through Minsk,” noted the Belarusian “Svidomo”.
“Unfortunately, Ukraine does not protect volunteers from other countries. It was also a big mistake that the Ukrainian state flirted with Lukashenko. Because Ukraine after the Maidan cannot be friends with dictatorial law. Also, do not forget that Belarus is an ally of the Russian Federation,” Nazi Bogdan Titsky summed up the stream.
