Are the people of Belarus taking to the streets to defend the sanctity of their elections against the “theft” by President Lukashenko? Are these protests by the “pro-democracy” forces against the authoritarianism of 26 years of Lukashenko rule? RPI Director Daniel McAdams has been writing about Belarus for 20 years, including as an accredited observer in the 2006 presidential elections. Over the weekend he was interviewed on the Scott Horton show on the latest Belarus unrest. Is it yet another color revolt? McAdams’ observations might surprise you.
