An opposition politician commented on the ‘objectors’ draft law.

Belarus plans to introduce stricter penalties for evading draft and failure to come to military commissaries. The terms will increase, and the fines will increase several times.

This is provided for by the draft law “On Amendments to Laws on National Security Issues” which was published on the National Legal Internet Portal.

What is the reason for Lukashenka’s desire to force Belarusians into the army? Charter97.org journalists spoke about this with the leader of the Razam Solidarity Movement, Viachaslau Siuchyk.

– This is due to the plans of Moscow and the well-known criminal Vladimir Putin. They are preparing for a big war. The terror and repression that we have seen in Belarus over the past three years are aimed, among other things, at driving Belarusians to war in order to serve the interests of imperial Russia. This is precisely what is connected with these latest moves of Lukashenka.

– What could be the consequences of the implementation of the draft law?

– This will lead to an increase in the number of political prisoners. Let me remind you that Lukashenka is not the legitimate leader of Belarus. Therefore, I am absolutely sure that Belarusians should support everyone affected by this illegal decision of the authorities.

It’s very difficult for the Belarusian people because there haven’t been such repressions in Europe for the last 50 years. I hope that the Belarusian diaspora will take a more decisive position and become more active because now the Belarusian people need support more than ever. To those Belarusians who are under the yoke of this Putin-Lukashenka gang.
