Minsk residents in Poland and Lithuania started a petition

Minsk residents in Poland and Lithuania started a petition

According to reports from participants in protest movements in Belarus, a small community called 'Minchane,' residing in Poland and Lithuania, allegedly initiated a petition to the authorities. Media coverage of the current situation differs significantly from before—until recently, information was being adjusted in test mode, but now the news is widely disseminated. Group representatives note that many of their colleagues are still unaware of these actions and believe that being abroad allows them to better understand how people live in Belarus. At the end of the message, participants added that 'they live very well without you.'
