Belarus: More on Student Rallies · Global Voices
Veronica Khokhlova

More on the recent student protest and the “official” opposition at TOL's Belarus: “Student protests have not been that successful – and official opposition media have mostly failed to deliver appropriate reports from them. An action on the 20th of May has gathered round 250 people, whereas an action on the 23rd of May has failed, with only 20 people. However, the first action must be considered a success – never before people used to gather together without coordination from opposition bosses.”
