Zmitser Bandarenka: Maybe We Will Have To Defend Independance Of Belarus As Early As Next Year
Zmitser Bandarenka

Russia has already done a lot for quite occupation.

The well-known Belarusian journalist Pavel Sheremet would have turned 45 years old yesterday.

The coordinator of the civil campaign European Belarus Zmitser Bandarenka noted in his interview with the Belsat TV channel, that Pavel Sheremet was a talented, outstanding journalist who had done a lot in Belarus, Russia and Ukraine.

A long period of dictatorship dominance in Belarus has affected people.

"It's very hard to live under dictatorship, it's hard not to be free as you want. Pavel Sheremet, Piotr Martsau, Viktar Ivashkevich, Aleh Bebenin, Ihar Germenchuk, Vital Taras, Uladzimir Babaryka, Veranika Charkasava, Volha Karatkevich, Zmitser Zavadski and many other people – they are stars of the Belarusian journalism who have left us young for various reasons. Some were murdered, some had their health undermined, some lived under pressure for a long time. Those people passed away when they were very young," – Zmitser Bandarenka noted.

He believes, that it's not a coincidence that so many talented people working in journalism have left this world, because journalism is the membrane of the Belarusian life.

Zmitser Bandarenka emphasised: the American political analyst Zbigniew Brzezinski predicted a few years ago, that Belarus will be the first to be occupied by Russia, and only then Ukraine will be occupied. Brzezinski explained, that the West would not intercede for Lukashenka and Russia had already done a lot for quiet occupation.

"It happened so, that in the 1990s the Chechens defended our independence. And indeed, at that time Russia was afraid to carry out a military intervention in Belarus, because it knew that the situation in Chechnya was not so simple. For a certain time, the last several years, we have been defended by the Ukrainians and the Belarusians who are fighting for the freedom of Ukraine in Donbas. Now I am sure, that we will have, even with weapons in our hands, to defend our independence. Maybe it will happen as early as next year. This is my assessment of the situation," – Zmitser Bandarenka noted.
