What is going on today is the seizure of power by unconstitutional means.

The mood of the people now is different. The people will laugh now, and that is what the authorities are most afraid of.

What is going on in Belarus can be compared to the storm of a fortress. This was the first storm. We will use peaceful methods. We will surround that fortress and we will not retreat.

This is a political action, a political sentence. Leaders of leading political parties are behind bars.
