Biden on Belarus elections: U.S. should support Tsikhanouskaya; Russia should not interfere
112 Ukraine ^ | August 20, 2020

Posted on 08/20/2020 3:52:05 PM PDT by elpadre

Candidate for the presidency in the U.S. from the Democratic Party Joe Biden stated that America should support the urge of leader of the Belarusian opposition Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya for fair elections in the republic as the politician reported on Twitter.

Besides, Biden urged the Russian Federation not to interfere in the situation in Belarus.

“The brave citizens of Belarus are showing their voices will not be silenced by terror or torture. The U.S. should support Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya's call for fair elections. Russia must be told not to interfere—this is not about geopolitics but the right to choose one's leaders,” Biden wrote.

As we reported, the EU aims to impose new sanctions against Belarusian officials responsible for the brutal crackdown in the ex-Soviet state. The top diplomats from the bloc's 27 member states met on August 14 to review former restrictions against Belarus party leadership that the EU removed in 2016, citing progress in improving the rule of law.

Later, Members of the European Parliament did not recognize the results of the presidential election in Belarus. They released a joint statement, according to which, incumbent President Alexander Lukashenko is considered persona non grata in the EU.

Biden getting ahead of himself. He is not the President and has no authority to speak out with authority.

I’m having a hard time making sense out of that headline.

The Interventionist Party loves to muck around in places 99.9% of Americans couldn’t find on a map.

So based on precedent, shouldn’t the FBI now launch a counterintelligence investigation of Biden to see if Belarus is meddling in his campaign? Also, the MSM should be loudly complaining about how there’s only one President at a time, etc. [Crickets chirping. . .]

Most here yesterday seemed to have the same viewpoint.

I don’t know Nearly Enough about the area but I would like to avoid something spiraling out of control because of this country.

The NATO countries are safe in Eastern Europe.

I dunno.

Biden never said it, never wrote it.

I hate neocons.

Yes, this is the deal Biden made with the neocons for Republican support.

I’m genuinely surprised Lynn Cheney is not speaking at the DNC.

This rhetoric is designed to give cover for more cold and hot war.

They want another Ukraine.

I want to hear Biden pronounce the name"Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya" on live TV three times in a row.

Even one time will do.

They’re still hellbent to get us into a war with russia, aren’t they?
In the leadup to the election in 2016 the left and Hillary specifically were rattling sabers and speaking bellicose hawkish BS, which was funny because the left is supposedly do principled that they’re against war.

Democrats specialize in no-win wars which enrich defense contractors while risking American lives.

Meanwhile they refuse to defend our borders from foreign invaders and our cities from domestic terrorists like Antifa.
