Russian citizens began to be included in the Belarusian “peacekeeper”
Journalist of the Russia Today television company Konstantin Pridybaylo became the first Russian whose personal data was published on the telegram channel “Black Book of Belarus” edited from Poland.
He wrote about this on his Telegram channel, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“Hello everyone, my name is Konstantin and I am in the “Black Book of Belarus” among the so-called peaceful protesters. I spoke a lot about the persecution of police officers and judges, and I became the first journalist in the Belarusian “peacemaker”. I will say that this is not very pleasant. Instantly there were calls from all over the world, except that there were no numbers from Burkina Faso. The funny thing is that “peaceful protesters” are ordering some medicines from Russia using my number. Isn’t this an indicator that people who rush at the behest of anonymous scum are sick?” Pridybaylo wrote.
Another Russian journalist, Alexander Kots, saw in what was happening an analogy with the Ukrainian events of 2014.
“At first everything was nice, everyone spoke Russian and thanked Russian journalists for coming to Square. Then they began to communicate with us mainly in language - demonstratively. Then I put on a black hat with a red trident so as not to attract too much attention to myself. And to the question: “What are the letters “KP” on the microphone?” answered: “Carpathian patriot.”
One day, another hundred self-defense units, who were on duty in the hotel lobby, stopped letting us into the hotel, directly saying that they didn’t need Muscovites here. And a few days after the massacre on the Maidan, Kyiv friends took me to the railway station in the trunk of an SUV. It was impossible to go to the airport - there were revolutionary checkpoints there with lists of enemies of the people of Ukraine, which included my name,” Kots wrote.
He believes that the Belarusian opposition is rapidly going the way of the Ukrainian Maidan activists, which ended with calls for physical violence against Russian journalists.
“No, I am completely calm about the fact that you can be trolled on the street and whistled after. And even with humor. In the end, you are not condensed milk for everyone to love you. But whether you like the way a journalist works or not, whether you consider him objective or a propagandist, this is not a reason to declare a hunt for him, threatening him with physical violence, setting fire to cars, destroying equipment... Here these “partisans” really have not gone far from their Ukrainian like-minded people , who are accustomed to dealing with dissent either with explosives under the car or with an article “for treason,” wrote Katz.
Previously, the channel “Black Book of Belarus” published personal data of riot policemen and members of their families, judges, government officials and teachers of Belarusian universities who “campaigned for the Russian world.”
