Opposition is attempting to limit growth of Tatsiana Karatkevich political weight as potential candidate

The Belarusian Popular Front Soim has decided to waive further support for ‘Tell the Truth!’ activist Tatsiana Karatkevich in the presidential elections. It is worth noting that a significant part of Soim participants has appealed for continuation of the BPF participation in Tatsiana Karatkevich’s campaign. Apparently, some political parties are seeking to limit the growth of Tatsiana Karatkevich political weight as a potential candidate, who, if registered, will become the only opposition candidate on the ballot. Meanwhile, the BPF refusal to support Karatkevich’s campaign will not seriously affect the course of the campaign – a number of activists from the “People’s Referendum” initiative will continue supporting Karatkevich’s team.
