As a result, in 2021 she was sentenced to 11 years in prison for conspiring to seize power.<\/p>\n\n<p>Babariko, a well-known banker critical of the Belarusian regime, was arrested during the 2020 election campaign before he was able to register his presidential candidacy.<\/p>\n\n<p>Those released also include other Viasna activists such as Valiantsin Stefanovich and Uladz Labkovich, as well as lawyer Maksim Znak; the editor of the Tut.by portal, Marina Zolatava; and political scientist Alexander Fiaduta.<\/p>\n\n<p>The release of these prisoners took place as part of a pardon granted to 123 people of different nationalities, according to a statement by the Belarusian presidency reproduced by the BELTA news agency.<\/p>\n\n<p>According to Viasna, the foreign nationals include Lithuanian Maria Batalionak, Polish citizen Raman Haluza, Latvian Ala Sakalenka, Japanese national Nakanishi Masatoshi, U.S. citizen Natallia Beslkaya, and Australian Aliaksandr Syrytsa.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cThe Republic of <a href=\"https:\/\/confidencial.digital\/mundo\/protestas-en-bielorrusia-hay-algun-parecido-con-nicaragua\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Belarus<\/a> has decided to pardon 123 citizens of different countries convicted (\u2026) of committing crimes of various kinds such as espionage, terrorism, and extremism,\u201d the presidential press office told BELTA.<\/p>\n\n<p>The statement stresses that the decision \u201cis part of the agreements reached with the president of the United States, Donald Trump,\u201d whose envoy, John Cole, held consultations with Lukashenko yesterday and today in Minsk.<\/p>\n\n<p>h Lukashenko yesterday and today in Minsk.<br\/>It also adds that the move responds \u201cto the cancellation of illegal sanctions against Belarus\u2019s potash sector adopted by the administration of the previous US president, Joe Biden.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>In total, according to BELTA, since November 2025 the Belarusian leader has pardoned 156 citizens from countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Ukraine, Australia, Japan, Lithuania, and Latvia.<\/p>\n\n<p>The measure, according to the official statement, is aimed at accelerating positive momentum in relations with the country\u2019s partners and at contributing to the stabilization of the situation in Europe.<\/p>\n\n<p>Shortly before, Cole announced the lifting of sanctions on that country\u2019s potash sector, which had been imposed by Washington in 2021. In September 2025, the United States lifted sanctions against the state-owned Belarusian airline Belavia, which had been sanctioned in 2022.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Normalization between the two countries began in August, when Lukashenko held a phone call with the US president, who urged his Belarusian counterpart to release all political prisoners following the release from prison of a group of dissidents last June, including opposition leader Sergei Tikhanovsky.<\/p>\n\n<p>Belarus, which has been ruled by Lukashenko since 1994, has been subject to sanctions since the violent repression of the massive opposition protests against electoral fraud in 2020. Those measures were expanded two years later with Minsk\u2019s open support for Russia\u2019s military campaign in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n<p>Lukashenko has pardoned several hundred Belarusian and foreign prisoners in recent months, but according to human rights organizations, more than a thousand political prisoners remain behind bars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The president of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, has pardoned the 2022 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Ales Bialiatski, as well as leading opposition figures imprisoned in the country, Mar\u00eda Kalesnikava and Viktor Babariko.
