Episode 10: “They underestimated her because she was a woman”
Today we dive into the inspiring and heartbreaking struggle for freedom in Belarus. I am joined by Valery Kavaleuski, Head of Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya’s Cabinet of Representatives and the Cabinet’s Representative of Foreign Affairs. Mr. Kavaleuski provides a fascinating account of Mrs. Tsikhanouskaya’s brave and surprising journey to become the elected and exiled leader of the people of Belarus. Mr. Kavaleuski also shares candid insights with me on the current situation under Aleksandr Lukashenko’s dictatorial and illegitimate regime.
Mrs. Tsikhanouskaya was underestimated by Belarus’ political elite. But she is standing up to dictators in both Belarus and Russia, and she fights for justice for her people and her family. I hope that you enjoy this episode and are inspired and motivated to support the people of Belarus in their struggle for freedom and democracy.
