EU Beacon of hope for Belarus - Belarusian opposition activists march through Minsk calling for closer ties to Europe
Thousands of Belarusian opposition activists shouting "freedom" marched through the center of the capital Sunday to pressure authoritarian President Alexander Lukashenko to move Belarus closer to Europe. "We want to live by the laws of Europe, not by the laws of dictatorship," opposition leader Alexander Milinkevich told about 5,000 people who had gathered on a square near the Academy of Sciences for what was called the European March.
"We will be protesting like this until we win and until we are free," he told the crowd.
