Die Verurteilung von @Tsihanouskaya ist eine Farce! Regime in Belarus tritt Rechtstaatlichkeit mit Füßen & bestrafft #Tsikhanouskaya für ihren Kampf für ein demokr. & rechtsstaatliches Belarus.

🇪🇺 steht fest an der Seite dieser mutigen Frau & der demokr. Opposition in #Belarus. https://twitter.com/Tsihanouskaya/status/1632725847651041280

#Bielorussia
Il tribunale di Minsk ha condannato in contumacia la leader dell'opposizione Sviatlana #Tsikhanouskaya a 15 anni di reclusione.
Tsikhanouskaya, insieme tra gli altri l'ex Ministro della Cultura Pavel #Latushko, è stata accusata di cospirazione con lo scopo di impadronirsi del potere statale in modo incostituzionale, della creazione di una formazione estremista e dell’incitamento alla discordia sociale.

@bhschultz

I don't quite see how the process is going to be "delicate" in this case - the existing systems have no credibility at all (even faking COVID-19 data), and the de jure government is trying to build up credibility in exile with essentially no direct control over the existing Belarusian bureaucracy.

Transition of the security services from #Lukashenko to #Tsikhanouskaya / United Transitional Cabinet is more likely to be rough (like #Maidan in #Ukraine) than delicate.

Excellent innovation!!!

Voting population of #Belarus: roughly 80% * 9.5 million = 7.6 M # https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Belarus

Official #Tsikhanouskaya result = 0.1 * 0.84 * 7.6 M = 0.64 M

#Golos so far = 1.2 M

Your interpretation seems to be that almost everybody who sent their vote to Golos voted for Tsikhanouskaya, so she must have got at least 20% of the vote.

This is a reasonable guess. It's unlikely that equally many Łukaszenko and Tsikhanouskaya supporters submitted photos to Golos.
