  • I will stay as long as Lukasjenko

    I asked an activist from Civil Forum if he wasn't thinking of leaving Belarus . His answer was that he would not leave until Lukasjenko was no longer in power. Such courage and fighting spirit is needed to fight the last dictatorship in Europe. This weekend IFLRY and LYMEC together with a couple member organizations met Civil Forum from ...

  • Georgian wine in St Petersburg

    Amanda Lövkvist (SILC), Johan Chytraeus (LUF) and I arrived in St Petersburg right after Victory Day and when the conflict with Estonia over moving the Bronze soldier had started to calm down. Kostya and Sasja from Yabloko Youth picked us up at the airport and drove us to the hotel. Just a few hours after arriving we held our first workshop ...

  • You vote I decide

    The global community constantly needs to be reminded of the grave situation in Belarus. But above all, Lukasjenko needs to be reminded that the world is keeping their eyes on his repressive regime. I just got back from a short visit to Prague where I attended an exhibition about the transition to dictatorship and the current opposition movement in ...

  • Arrested in Castro’s Cuba

    When I was asked about going to Cuba to meet the opposition I got excited, yet a bit scared. Some of my friends got a bit envious because of the nice and warm weather in Cuba. My father, on the other hand, didn’t want me to go since he thought that I would get arrested. It turns out that he was right but meeting the opposition in Cuba ...
