I am interested in learning of his policies, what he said and did, state of the left movement in Belarus as well as position of the country on the world stage and in the eyes of the non-western countries.

    I don’t support the sentiments voiced in these quotes, for which I would like to see more context, but we should also remember that he’s allied with the Russian government in fighting genuine swastika-waving genocidal fascists (and the NATO alliance which backs them). Material reality, not opinions alone, are what makes one a fascist.

      You can still be anti-semetic and fight Nazis. Hence the current Russian narrative of “judeo-globalism”, “Soros”, and extreme anti-LGBT sentiment.

      Also I will say that you are not missing any context with those statements. Lukashenko is a known anti-semite in Belarus.
