EU: Belarusian Pres. Lacks Legitimacy
(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA))
BRUSSELS, Jan 25 (KUNA) -- The European Union said on Saturday that Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko "doesn't have any legitimacy."
EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Kaja Kallas said in a post on X that "Lukashenko has clung to power for 30 years. He will reappoint himself tomorrow in yet another sham election."
"This is a blatant affront to democracy. Lukashenko doesn't have any legitimacy," she added.
Belarusians will vote tomorrow, Sunday, in a presidential election expected to strengthen the grip of President Lukashenko, a close ally of Moscow, who has ruled the country for over three decades.
Belarusian opposition parties have called the election a farce, as Lukashenko has prevented any opposition candidates from running and banned any form of opposition. (end)
