Fighting for Democracy in Belarus
Update: 2024-11-28
Description
In 2020, Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya emerged as a powerful voice for change in Belarus when she ran against President Alexander Lukashenko who has led the country since 1994 with what some call "an iron hand." The controversial results led to the largest protests in the country's history and pressure on Tsikhanouskaya to leave Belarus. As her country continues to face political turmoil and international condemnation for siding with Russian in its war on Ukraine, she tells host Steve Paikin that the fight for democracy remains at the forefront of mind.
