Mark long sent a message to support the White Russian protest, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman: hypocrisy
Overseas network, August 17 – Russian satellite news agency reported on the 17th that Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman zaharova said on the 17th that French President Marcon’s call for EU support for the peaceful protest in Belarus was “hypocritical”, and asked when he also asked the EU to support the French “yellow vest” demonstration? According to reports, Marcon tweeted on the 16th that the EU should continue to support peaceful protests in Belarus. Zaharova sarcastically said on Facebook on the 17th: when will he ask the EU to continue to support hundreds of thousands of “yellow vest” actions that seek to respect their rights, freedom and sovereignty in peaceful demonstrations? When will the EU stop supporting protests within other countries at the request of the presidents of Member States? It’s hypocritical. Russian media reported that according to the data of the Central Election Commission of Belarus, current president Lukashenko was re elected with 80.1% of the vote. After the presidential election in Belarus, large-scale protests broke out across the country on August 9. Police used tear gas, water cannons and rubber bullets to disperse the demonstration, and more than 6700 people were arrested. According to the Ministry of the interior of Belarus, hundreds of people were injured in the demonstration, including 120 police officers. Another protester died after trying to throw explosive devices at law enforcement officers. At a meeting in Minsk on August 15, Lukashenko pointed out that the recent demonstrations in Belarus were caused by interference from external forces, and said that he would discuss the response steps of the “Color Revolution” in the strategic command center of the Ministry of defense. Lukashenko believed that the current offensive is aimed at Belarus, but if Belarus can not hold on, then this wave will sweep the alliance countries. The Kremlin pointed out in a statement on August 16 that Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a telephone conversation with Lukashenko that Moscow is ready to provide military assistance when necessary.
