Opposition Candidate in Belarus Election Flees to Lithuania

August 11, 2020, 04.47 PM

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a statement that the election was not “free and fair”, and added: “We strongly condemn ongoing violence against protesters and the detention of opposition supporters.”

The European Union condemned the police crackdown and called for an immediate release of all those detained.

In a joint statement, EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell and the EU commissioner responsible for relations with Europe’s close neighbors, Oliver Varhelyi, lamented that “the election night was marred with disproportionate and unacceptable state violence against peaceful protesters.”
