Threats. Violence. Prison.
That’s how the regime tried to silence #Belarus.
But 600,000 exiled Belarusians carry the resistance across borders.
Across Europe and beyond, they continue to organize, resist, and fight for the free Belarus they believe in.

On February 24, 2022, Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
The world watched as Russian forces advanced, expecting Kyiv to fall in 3 days.
But Ukraine stood firm. Not just for three days - but for three years.
