Trump aspires to liberate politically-detained individuals in Belarus
In a press briefing at the White House on September 5, 2020, U.S. President Donald Trump urged Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko to release hundreds of political prisoners. Trump referred to Lukashenko as the "leader of Belarus" and stated that many of the prisoners could be released in the not-too-distant future.
However, the statement does not indicate a direct agreement between the U.S. and Belarus for the release of the prisoners. The actual number of political prisoners in Belarus is higher than the number mentioned by Trump, and the precise future date for their release is not publicly known.
Trump's statement was reported by Deutsche Welle, but it does not provide any new facts or updates about the actual number of political prisoners in Belarus or any new conditions or agreements related to their potential release.
The article also mentions various platforms where Charter97.org, a Belarusian news outlet, is present on social media, including Facebook, YouTube, X.com, VKontakte, OK.ru, Instagram, RSS, and Telegram. For those who wish to support Charter97.org, the article provides information for making donations, including the bank name, address, IBAN, SWIFT, account holder, and payment purpose. The email address for donations is our [email protected].
Despite the call for action, the article does not mention any new developments or actions taken by Lukashenko or the Belarusian government regarding the release of political prisoners. The article does not specify which political prisoners will be released or the conditions for their release. It is understood that further releases depend on political negotiations, including potential lifting of sanctions.
As the situation continues to develop, it is crucial to stay informed and support organisations like Charter97.org in their efforts to promote democracy and human rights in Belarus.
