Ruth Maguire (Scottish National Party) for Kseniya Khodyrava: “The situation in Belarus is a grave warning for all of Europe. Lukashenko’s grab for power in 2020, and the subsequent crackdown on dissent, underscored both the importance of democratic processes and the necessity of defending human rights wherever they are threatened. As authoritarianism looms at the edges of Europe, the need for international solidarity in defending freedom and justice has never been more urgent. The resistance of the Belarusian people and the strength of people like Kseniya are testament to their character. Kseniya’s courage in supporting political opposition movements, despite receiving a five-year prison sentence, inspires hope for the people of Belarus and cannot be understated. These simple acts of courage by Belarusians give hope to us all that the stifling atmosphere of political oppression in Belarus can be overcome. In raising awareness of Kseniya’s situation, and what others face every day in Belarus, it is my wish that support for her and others like her grows and we amplify that hope and strength.”
