*** Give us a brief overview of the history of the contemporary anarchist movement in Belarus.
*** How have anarchists continued organizing in Belarus despite repression? Do you have any advice for anarchists in other parts of the world who have not experienced the same sort of repression yet—but may experience it in the coming years?
*** What is the composition of the movement around the August elections in Belarus? What are the political aspirations of the participants? What is the balance of power between them?
*** We have heard that, at least according to a reporter from Belsat TV, anarchists played an important role in the August 9 protests in Minsk. Is this true?
*** What are the different scenarios for how this showdown between Lukashenko and the protesters could turn out?
*** How will the departure of Tikhanouskaya affect the movement?
*** We have seen that Russia has not wholeheartedly supported Lukashenko in this situation. How do you see Putin’s strategy here? What would be the implications for Russia and elsewhere in the region if protesters force Lukashenko out of power?
*** Is there anything you would like to say to self-proclaimed “anti-imperialists” in the West who support Lukashenko?
*** We have seen some “anti-imperialists” alleging that the movement in Belarus is comprised of fascists. There are allegations that the flag many demonstrators are waving is associated with the Nazi occupation of Belarus, for example.
*** What can anarchists in other parts of the world do to support comrades in Belarus? Are there concrete structures to support those facing repression now? Are there pressure points that international solidarity could focus on?
