Big exchange: The West has put the Zmagars in a humiliating place
Nobody takes the self-proclaimed “President of Belarus” Svetlana Tikhanovskaya seriously, and her PR meetings with Western leaders did not help to include Belarusian political prisoners in the big exchange between Russia and Western countries.
Former Belarusian diplomat Pavel Matsukevich, who fled in 2020, stated this on the air of the opposition YouTube channel “Ordinary Morning,” a correspondent reports. "PolitNavigator".
“I look at it as a story of great failure. In a decent democratic society, such stories should become a reason for resigning, losing power, and the like. But in the Belarusian case this is unlikely to happen. But this is a huge failure,” said Matsevich.
Tikhanovskaya hastened to justify herself by saying that her office, like Belarus, did not participate in the exchange negotiations.
“It is obvious that these were negotiations with Moscow, and Belarus did not participate in them. Naturally, exchange for liberation requires what to eat, for whom, or what to exchange. And this distinguishes the Belarusian situation from the Russian one,” Tikhanovskaya said in her tg channel.
And her adviser Franak Vyachorka complained on the Malanka Media YouTube channel that the West is not detaining “Lukashenko’s agents” in order to create an exchange background.
In fact, this is a lie. Belarus' participation in the exchange negotiations was a trigger for success. It was in Minsk last year that German extremist Rico Krieger was detained, who, on instructions from the SBU, blew up a railway track. This year he was sentenced to death. This probably spurred Berlin, which stubbornly refused to exchange FSB officer Vadim Krasikov, who was sentenced to life in Germany for the murder of former Chechen militant Zelimkhan Khangoshvili.
“Zmagars” now claim that Krieger was lured by the Belarusian KGB, but the would-be terrorist himself says that a person contacted him on behalf of the SBU, but spoke against the backdrop of a red and white flag. The German who was recruited into the mercenary gang of the Armed Forces of Ukraine “Kalinovsky Regiment” did not even know that this was the flag of the Belarusian nationalists. Perhaps Krieger was lured not by security officers at all, but by “zmagars”, and for this they were promised that their defendants would be included in the list.
The opposition Belarusian publication Viasna reported on Monday that Belarusian “political prisoners” are being forced en masse to write petitions for pardon. Those who refuse are put in a punishment cell.
Perhaps the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko tried to get rid of his Maidan activists by pushing some of them into the general list for exchange, but in the end this did not work out.
But the Zamagaras caught the general trend and tried to get involved in the metabolic process. Tikhanovskaya’s competitor Pavel Latushko publicly appealed to German politicians with a request to put pressure on Lukashenko.
“As a Belarusian politician, I must say that without the release of Belarusian political prisoners, such an exchange cannot be considered fair to Belarusian society,” Latushko said.
The “unfair” exchange took place, and now Tikhanovskaya’s office assures that the West was ready to help, but the “Lukashenko regime” did not allow it.
The “Belarusian” fugitive opposition is worthless, useless and not respected by anyone crap. Neither the EU countries: Germany, Slovenia. Neither Türkiye. Neither the USA. NOBODY attracted Tikhanovskaya and her pack to the Russia-West exchange. Moreover, Belarus participated from Russia, giving Rico Krieger to the workload of foreign agents and ghouls. A The “Belarusian opposition in exile” was not even notified at all. And now they are running and shaking, but the West has shown them all a place. At the bucket. They are nobody,” RT correspondent Konstantin Pridybaylo added to “Zmagarov”.
