Target: US Department of State and President of the United States
Goal: We call on the US government to ensure transparency in its foreign policy with Belarus and to demand concrete human rights improvements from the Lukashenko regime.
The recent phone call between President Trump and President Lukashenko, as reported by official channels, included discussions about the release of prisoners and upcoming talks with Russia. While the release of 16 prisoners is a positive step, the broader context in Belarus remains deeply troubling: thousands of political prisoners remain behind bars, and the Lukashenko regime continues to suppress dissent and violate basic human rights.
It is unacceptable for US leaders to engage with authoritarian regimes without clear and public demands for democratic reforms and respect for human rights. The American people deserve transparency in foreign policy, and those suffering under authoritarian rule deserve our solidarity and support.
