What the rift within the Tsikhanouski family means for the Belarusian opposition in exile
Siarhei Tsikhanouski criticizes his wife Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya's leadership and legitimacy, proposing a new supervisory board for Belarusian opposition. His comments raise concerns about the unity and effectiveness of the Belarusian democratic forces in exile. Tsikhanouski's return to public life has sparked a leadership crisis, as he questions Tsikhanouskaya's role and the support she receives from the international community. Political analysts suggest that this internal conflict could weaken the opposition's position against Lukashenko's regime, which benefits from their discord.
