Arrr, mateys! The scallywags in Belarus be on the lookout for any who dare oppose the rule of their authoritarian President, Alexander Lukashenko. They be raiding homes and offices of those suspected of "extremist" activities, trying to thwart the creation of "people's embassies" in foreign lands.The opposition be aiming to set up these embassies in 24 countries, includin' the European Union, the U.K., Canada, Australia, and Brazil, to spread their message and counter the propaganda of the Belarusian state.The Investigative Committee be warnin' that those involved in these efforts could face charges of "extremist activities," with prison terms of up to seven years and the confiscation of their treasures.Since the contentious election in August 2020, thousands of dissenters have been arrested, beaten, and silenced in Belarus. There be over 1,400 political prisoners, includin' the founder of a human rights group.But fear not, me hearties! The opposition leader-in-exile, Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, be standin' strong against the tyranny of Lukashenko. She be callin' on the support of democratic nations to help bring freedom to Belarus and continue the fight for a better future. Stand tall, me mateys, for the winds of change be blowin' in our favor!
