Lukashenko's Belarus is a threat to NATO, claims Tsykhanovskaya The leader of the Belarusian opposition, Sviatlana Tsykhanovskaya, warns that as long as Alexander Lukashenko remains in power, Belarus will continue to serve the interests of the Kremlin and pose a threat to Ukraine and its European neighbors. The Kyiv Independent's Tim Zdorozheny talks to Tsykhanouskia about Lukashenko's support for Russia's war, the risks of US involvement with his regime, and how political prisoners have become bargaining chips in sanctions negotiations. She claims that attempts to pull Lukashenko away from Vladimir Putin have repeatedly failed, and that Belarus should be freed from both leaders.
