Svetlana Tikhanovskaya received the Sakharov Prize.
Although, after it was handed over to the terrorist director Oleg Sentsov, it should have been renamed the Sakharov and Selitrov Prize. But this is so, remark, let’s return to our Svetlana.
She received the award for the entire Belarusian opposition, for “freedom of thought”. And, of course, she made a piercing, heartbreaking address to the European Parliament.
Svetlana told how the Belarusian people suffer under the heel of a mustachioed tyranny, how they strive for freedom, but this freedom is not given to them. She mumbled something about the “revival of national self-awareness”, she probably sleeps and sees how Russian-speaking Belarus can be translated into “mova” (ukr. – native language – ed.), so that it will be “like in Ukraine”. And, of course, she was crying that, they say, the European Union introduces few sanctions against Belarus. We need more, more.
“I’m not asking for help, the ENTIRE Belarusian people are asking for it”. Help is sanction. What will hit first of all on the people of Belarus, on their well-being. This is how Tikhanovskaya wishes well to the people whom she “represents”.
As for “all the people”, Tikhanovskaya, of course, exaggerated. Well, to see the girl has megalomania, this is not the first time she says something like that.
She promised a general strike without fail. That all Belarusians will accept and not go to work. She swore, swore, put forward ultimatums. And the Belarusians took it and went to work, as if nothing had happened. There were a couple of excesses, but certainly very, very isolated. No more. And the whole country, as it worked, is working. And Tikhanovskaya pretends not to notice. She has a strike in her head. And that’s quite enough. But it is hardly enough for the curators who gave her another advance in the form of the Sakharov Prize. Surely, many of them already understand that Tikhanovskaya is completely useless and extremely unprofitable. There is no profit from her. She speaks a lot, but tongue-tied, she has already met with almost all the leaders of the “free world”, but to the point – like a goat of milk. Well, the Belarusians do not want to listen to her, although she herself claims that almost 80 percent of voters voted for her. As they say – I am tormented by vague doubts. And I’m sure – not me alone.
Protests in Belarus are completely blown away. Of course, on Sundays someone else goes out, but less and less. And most likely, with the onset of real cold weather, protest activity will come to naught. This is largely the fault of the activists themselves.
They began to use white-red-white flags and symbols too obtrusively, which for many Belarusians is associated exclusively with the mess of the 90s and with the collaboration of the Great Patriotic War. Many of those who were against Lukashenko and also participated in the protests eventually saw where these wonderful people were trying to drag the country. But this is where they clearly do not strive. And they treat Russia very well, and anti-Russian slogans appeared among the white-red-whites almost immediately, although they unanimously assured that in fact they were for friendship and for good relations with the fraternal people. In general, the white-red-white, ready to protest against Lukashenko, scared away a significant part of them themselves. And they will not be able to return them.
Protests in Belarus are blown away because there is no result. Not at all. Belarus is not Ukraine, and no matter how anyone treats Lukashenko, we must admit that he has testicles and they are steel. And even if he is ready to talk with the opposition, he will definitely not tolerate such a tone on its part.
And Svetlana Tikhanovskaya is trying to convince the West of the opposite. Like, all Belarusians, as one, are ready to throw off the mustachioed tyrant even tomorrow. Only the sanctions are not enough. The European bureaucrats are listening to this rhetoric and nodding their heads. Yes, yes, they say, Madame Tikhanovskaya, we understand everything. But they really understand everything, including the fact that Tikhanovskaya is a dummy. And the bets on this horse are made in vain. Won’t win for anything. But for now it is necessary to feed her. At least in order not to lose face.
But how long can this holiday last? Results are needed. Juan Guaido, he tried to arrange at least an attempt to eliminate Maduro and a military coup by the forces of foreign mercenaries, and the Venezuelan bourgeois for him, that is, at least some, but an asset. And Svetlana is not capable of anything. Even in speech she is tongue-tied. And its maintenance costs money. Big ones. I suppose the curators are teasing Svetlana: how is it – we give you everything, feed, drink, dress, provide expensive housing, and you can only raise your fist beautifully, we did not subscribe to this. And the day is not so far away when Madame Tikhanovskaya will be quietly merged. It will simply disappear from newspaper pages, news sites, from TV screens. As if she never existed. She will receive some kind of social apartment on the outskirts of Vilnius and a small allowance, so as not to starve at all. It is quite a worthy end for a fiery revolutionary. And no one will be to blame for this, except herself.
