Godparenthood for political prisoners in Belarus | Libereco
Karsten Hønge (Member of the Folketing / The Danish Parliament, The Green Left) for
Katsiaryna Makarevich: “Katsiaryna Makarevich has shown incredible courage, protesting for peace and freedom in Belarus despite constant and violent repression by the Belarusian government. She was sentenced to 3,5 years imprisonment in a penal colony for her regime-critical publications in a Telegram channel. Lukashenka uses brutal punishments for unwelcome expressions of opinion and activism as an instrument of power against his own population, whose democratic spirit he is trying to break. I stand in solidarity with Katsiaryna Makarevich and the Belarusian people, with the thousands of detainees, who have had to give up their freedom and their homeland for democracy.”
