Lukashenko accused the United States and Germany of financing militants

The US and Germany financed the provocations in Belarus of the armed militants. According to BelTA agency, this was stated by President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko.

“Here they are offended - they heard my statement in Mogilev about Ukraine, Lithuania and Poland. But if so?! American, German funds gave money through Poles and Lithuanians. Most of the money left there, but ours lived and live well, everyone in the mansions, they travel to Mercedes, ”said Lukashenko.

On the eve of the KGB of Belarus, he said that the detained activists of the Bely Legion and the Young Front were going to take part in the riots. Earlier, Lukashenko announced the detention of "two dozen militants who were preparing an armed provocation."

March 25 in Belarus should be held protests against the “Tuneusa tax”. A few days before, mass detentions of activists passed throughout the country. As the journalist of the Belarusian Partisan publication Dmitry Galko told The Insider, a total of about 300 people were detained, criminal cases were instituted against 27.

“And these are only famous activists. Surely they are delayed by ordinary citizens who went to previous rallies and were going to go to the upcoming action, but we just don’t know about it, ”said Galko.

According to him, during the detention of activists, they are brutally beaten. Galko noted that law enforcement officers and special services did not show such cruelty since the last presidential campaign. Almost all activists are detained for a day, after which, under far -fetched pretexts, the arrest is extended.
