Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko expressed no regrets over allowing Russia's invasion of Ukraine from Belarus while facing international condemnation for a flawed election process. Germany's foreign minister and other European officials criticized the vote as a sham with significant human rights abuses occurring in Belarus. Lukashenko, having held power since 1994, dismissed concerns over a potential succession while maintaining a misogynistic stance on leadership. International sanctions against his regime continue as the nation grapples with political repression and a history of violent crackdowns on dissent.
Instead of free and fair elections and a life without fear and arbitrariness, they experience oppression, repression and human rights violations on a daily basis.
The EU will maintain sanctions against the regime, highlighting international condemnation of the sham presidential election.
