European Parliament members are pushing for an arrest warrant against Belarusian strongman Alexander Lukashenko for serving an “accomplice” role in Russia’s war.
The political opposition in Belarus, led by exiled opposition leader Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, has been callingfor months, as previously reported by The Daily Beast. The democratic opposition expressed support for the MEPs report Tuesday.
“I am profoundly grateful for the MEPs' support in condemning the ongoing human rights violations in Belarus,” Tsikhanouskaya said. The ICC has already issued arrest warrants for Putin and the Russian Children’s Rights Commissioner Maria Lvova-Belova for their role in illegally transfering Ukrainian children out of Ukraine during the war.
Just like with Russia, European countries must seek to hold Lukashenko accountable for his role in the war in Ukraine and for human rights abuses, said Petras Austrevicius, a Lithuanian politician and member of the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the Subcommittee on Security and Defence. “The Lukashenka regime has engaged in unprecedented internal repression against the Belarusian people and has become an accomplice in Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine,” Austrevicius said in a statement.
