Today Belarusians celebrate Freedom Day. Employees of "A Country to Live in" foundation, located in Vilnius, took to the streets of the city with posters and the national shrine of Belarusians - a white-red-white flag.
With our action, we want to remind you that each year of Lukashenko’s rule is marked by widening repressions against society - the dictator has always seen a threat to his rule in the free and peaceful actions of the people.
Like a dragon lying on gold, he zealously watched any encroachments on power and "stability." The past year has shown this particularly clearly. People’s discontent with Lukashenko’s failed policy and electoral fraud has never been so widespread. Never before have so many Belarusians taken to our cities' streets to protest against the usurpation of power.
Courageous Belarusians in 2020 badly wounded the dragon, and now he is licking his wounds surrounded by jackals and hyenas. Huddled into a dark hole and wants to seem scary - hisses and spits smoke. But he's weak. His departure is a matter of time and the amount of pain that he still has time to inflict on us.
Like all Belarusians:
Belarusians became free. Together we will defeat the dragon.
Open the window, go outside. Look each other in the eye.
This is Freedom Day.

Like all Belarusians:
- We demand that our voices be heard in free elections
- We are fighting for a free Belarus, in which no one will be thrown into prisons and police wagons for expressing one's opinion
- We believe in a bright future for our country based on law and justice
- We will build a country for the life of all Belarusians, and not just a handful of security officials
Belarusians became free. Together we will defeat the dragon.
Open the window, go outside. Look each other in the eye.
This is Freedom Day.
