Telegram Founder – Channel Nexta, recognized as an extremist in Belarus, Roman Protasevich commented on the activities of the country's President Alexander Lukashenko.
According to Protasevich, “if one could withstand such enormous pressure, then it probably says a lot. ”& Quot; In terms of personality as a person & ndash; yes, his steadfastness inspires respect, & # 39; & # 39; admitted in the story of the Belarusian channel STV.
Vladimir Makei, the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic, also spoke about the work of the President. According to him, he worked with Lukashenko for more than 20 years. He stressed that “ I have never met a person who loved his country so much. & # 39; & # 39;
Protasevich previously spoke about how he learned about the coup's planning in the republic. According to him, the team of the ex-presidential candidate Světlana Tichanovská has nothing in common. At the same time, Protasevich himself admitted that he knew many people who spoke of the attempted violent coup. In other words, they were conspirators.
In an interview with Lithuanian opposition politician Algirdas Paleckis, Protasevich noted that Tikhonskaya was frightened when she heard about such a proposal and decided not to do anything about it. Protasevich was detained at Minsk Airport after a forced landing of a Ryanair plane en route from Athens to Vilnius in May 2021. In Belarus, he was accused of organizing riots after the August 2020 presidential election. He later agreed to cooperate in the investigation. Shortly afterwards, he was transferred from the pre-trial detention center to house arrest.
