Minsk Protest Presidential Election Fraud in Belarus

Thousands protest presidential election fraudulent results in Belarus
http://belapan.com/archive/2010/12/19/436027/ Alexander Lukashenko re-elected for a fourth term named the last dictator in Europe. After 16 years in office, Lukashenko has become Europe's longest serving authoritarian leader.
Tens of thousands people flocked to the central square of Minsk, angry at Alexander Lukashenko's falsified victory - his fourth term of real dictatorhip.
However, riot police have gained control over the square and cleared the protesters. Some people were reportedly cornered by the policemen and beaten. Some protestors attempted to storm the House of Parliament in the center of the Belarusian capital, Minsk. Windows in the building have been broken and a large number of people gathered the doors trying to break into the parliament.
The opposition says the victory was fraudulent. For two opposition leaders, Vladimir Neklyaev and Andrey Sannikov, the presidential elections have turned especially ugly when, during the protest demonstration, they were beaten by a group of people wearing masks. Hundreds were arrested and four presidential candidates were detained: Andrey Sannikov, Nikolay Statkevich, Grigory Kostusev and Vitaly Rymashevsky.

In any country, regardless if the ruler is Lukashenko, Lula, Dilma, Bush or Obama, anyone who attacks public buildings and promote maraudings is repressed and arrested. It's good to remember, judging by the images promoted by pro-Western Radio Svoboda website, Belarusian cops DID NOT use tear gas or water jets, as they do in France or USA.

I wanna see any clown from Belarusian opposition come here and deny what I'm afirming!

Don't come here with laughings! Do you believe that such ridiculous laughings are arguments? Someone says something and the other replies "hahaha", that's the great argument of Belarusian opposition! Stop trolling videos and go working, clown!

Young people were used in Belarus to promote maraudings and disorder in the country. Opposition wants Belarus as EU-NATO slave, they even carry posters in English and would certainly aproof the bombing of their own country!

@Swordman85 Haha, you're so brainwashed it's funny.

"The international observers have not registered any major violations," this is the key statement in this report. In addition, it should have been mentioned that the protests in the streets were unauthorized, and the opposition didn't even make an attempt to get a legal permission for the demonstration.

You can watch a video in my profile... it called "We demand truth and freedom!"

It will give you complete information about what happened in that hell of December 19, 2010. Demonstration was PEACEFUL.

The video was demonstrated by Belarusian democrats to European Parliament deputies as well as Polish, Lithuanian, German and Czech journalists during press-conferences in European capitals.

If western powers ever gets there hands on Belarus they will tare Belarus apart think people !

[Swordman85]

WHAT??? Even RT presented it as "fraudulent"? This is an absurd!

Imperialist lovers, keep the hands off Belarus!

If opposition won, you would call it "fair election", even if it was fraudulent! For the opposition, elections are always fraudulent, unless they win!
