The political crisis in Belarus has grown significantly since the 2020 presidential election, in which Alexander Lukashenko claimed victory in a controversial election. The public, fueled by widespread fraud, launched massive protests demanding Lukashenko’s resignation. Although demonstrations have reduced in intensity, political tensions remain high, with far-reaching impacts on the country’s social and economic conditions. The current situation shows that the wounds of this crisis have not fully healed. The opposition, led by Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, who is now in exile, continues to seek international support. They are fighting for global recognition of the true power of the people. Support from Western countries, although varied, remains the backbone of the pro-democracy movement. The sanctions imposed by the European Union and the United States on the Lukashenko regime have become a tool to pressure the government to respect human rights and democracy. Domestically, Lukashenko’s government is attempting to squelch all voices of opposition. Repressive tactics included mass arrests, imprisonment, and intimidation of activists and journalists. Independent media is almost completely closed or operating under threat. However, the courage of the Belarusian people in maintaining their vote despite huge risks shows a noteworthy societal resilience. Belarus also faces deepening economic challenges due to international sanctions and poor management by the government. Inflation increases, and people’s purchasing power decreases. On the other hand, the regime is trying to partner with Russia as an economic and political supporter, although this has sparked dissatisfaction among people who do not want Belarus to become a satellite country. International diplomatic efforts continue, with several countries seeking avenues for dialogue between the government and the opposition. Although these efforts face major obstacles, several initiatives have succeeded in drawing global attention to the situation in Belarus. Opposition leader Tsikhanouskaya visited various European countries to increase support for the struggle of the Belarusian people. Today, the divisions of Belarusian society appear even more stark. Some support the government, either out of compliance or fear, while others remain committed to change. This situation is visible in the cycle of sporadic protests and the power of government propaganda that tries to shape a positive narrative about the situation in the country. Belarus’ political crisis is one fraught with complexity, fueled by a long history of dissatisfaction with authoritarian rule. Recent developments show that while the ruling regime appears to be stable, domestic challenges and ongoing external support indicate that the struggle for democracy and reform will continue. Signs that people continue to fight for their rights indicate that hope for political change remains, despite difficult and challenging circumstances.
