Belarus - "We are not kept in prison, we are tortured" - The protests against the regime continue

 Belarus. It's not over yet. The protests against the regime and the dictator continue. "Be careful".

"It was a special KGB-operation to get Svetlana Tichanovskaya out of the country", says former Belarusian presidential candidate and diplomat Andrei Sannikov in exile, in an interview with Christiane Amanpour (CNN). Tichanovskaya "was speaking under duress and blackmailed and we shall not take anything for granted that is coming out now". The protests against the regime and the dictator continue (See video!). Sannikov also says: "We are not kept in prison in Belarus, we are tortured!". - What is happening now to the political prisoners, peaceful protesters and former presidential candidate Mikola Statkevich in prison?

Iryna Khalip, journalist and wife of Andrei Sannikov: 

"There's no freedom of assembly without freedom of religion. Freedom of religion is impossible without freedom of expression. You can't have free enterprise, without freedom of opinion. You can either have freedom in its entirety - or no freedom at all. But I think that freedom of expression is the most important." (The German PEN Center awarded Irina Khalip the Hermann Kesten Prize on Sunday (11.11.2012) for her struggle to promote democracy and freedom of expression)
