EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PROPAGANDA NARRATIVES: BELARUS AND THE “UNION STATE”- The upcoming presidential elections in 2025 are gradually becoming the main factor influencing the Belarusian propaganda agenda.

More and more voices in Europe and the United State acknowledge that forced landing of EU-registered civil aircraft (with mostly EU citizens on board) was an act of terror, and act of piracy, or even an act of war against the EU.

Important decisions of the international community adopted at the end of March, which had been long awaited in Belarus, can become a turning point, radically changing the dynamics of the standoff between the dictatorship and the pro-democracy forces of society.

The dramatic events of the presidential campaign in Belarus gave rise to an unprecedented wave of protest against the regime of Alexander Lukashenko, who has been leading the country since 1994.

The summary data on the victims delivered to medical institutions in Minsk and their injuries during the suppression of protests by security forces and in places of detention from 9 to 13 August were provided to iSANS by representatives of medical institutions on condition of confidentiality.
