In 2021, the Belarusian KGB forced a European plane to land in Minsk to arrest journalist Roman Protasevich. In 2026, Protasevich is one of the Lukashenko regime's propagandists.
Russian manipulation, security concerns, and pressure from some Lithuanian businesses may have all played a role in the relocation of Belarus’ opposition leader, Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, to Belarus.
Hundreds of Belarusian companies support Russia's war effort, supplying it with, among other things, shells, drones, chassis for military vehicles, and components imported from the West.
A crisis in potatoes, which are a staple food in Belarus, is showing the failure of the economic model imposed by dictator Aleksandr Lukashenko.
Alexander Lukashenko’s looked frail and isolated at his 7th inauguration as Belarus president, consumed by old obsessions and leaning on his personal clan. The ceremony told more about the state of affairs in the regime than the dictator himself wanted it to.
Belarus has an ever increasing list of items deemed extremist, ranging from reasonable ones, like Hitler’s Mein Kampf, to rock songs that authorities see as being critical to Lukashenko’s regime.
Elections in Belarus were anything but free, with no opposition candidates or independent observers, and a government disinformation campaign designed to instill fear. The opposition managed, nonetheless, to get its message to at least part of the electorate, and in spite governmental efforts, turnout was lower than expected.
Moscow views its so-called “compatriots abroad” both as a base for implementing destabilization plans in host countries and as a pretext for interfering in the internal politics of those states.
The apparent failure of U.S. plans in Iran is likely to be used by Moscow to undermine trust in Washington globally, as well as to target domestic audiences within the United States.
The Kremlin continues its policy of radicalising Africa and provoking conflict between the states of the continent and the “collective West.” The foundation for this effort is history — in particular the colonial past — as well as the narrative of “neocolonialism.”
It is clear how concerned the Kremlin is about the potential loss of its role as one of the world’s main suppliers of critical resources. Recently, Moscow has noticeably intensified information operations in this direction. First of all, these narratives aimed at European audiences promote the supposed necessity of maintaining energy dependence on Russia, claiming it is essential for EU economic growth and prosperity.
Russia is portrayed almost as a bastion of democracy — supposedly a paradise for ordinary citizens, especially compared to other states.
SVR chief Sergei Naryshkin decided to spell out how Moscow’s missile and nuclear blackmail should be interpreted: namely, if you didn’t get the message, we can fire the “Oreshnik” if European states continue to support Ukraine — and especially if they deploy their forces there.
