Media: Lukashenka begging for mercy but Russia’s got more damaging information on him

NTV is to show a new documentary on Friday, Godbatka-4. Last Autumn.

Having entered into unconcealed conflict with Moscow, Alyaksandr Lukashenka is now trying to relieve tensions, the Russian pres suppose. The Belarusian ruler demonstrated a conciliatory gesture by sending birthday greetings to Russian PM Vladimir Putin while Belarusian MPs called to do unite efforts to ”ensure that the relations between the countries remain constructive”. As experts think, Lukashenka is stunned by Moscow’s harsh reaction to his attacks and now tries to normalize relations, Kommersant writes. In the meantime, the Russian party is not apparently going to make peace. A new discrediting movie about the regime of Lukashenka is to be shown on TV today, NEWSru.com says.

As trailer says, the film is to answer several questions of public interest, in particular, how a seat in the parliament saved Lukashenka from prison, who staged suicide of journalist Aleh Byabenin, and how the others were killed. Besides, the audience can hear an honest talk with an officer of the Belarusian death squadron.

Three previous episodes of Godbatka focused on the activity of Lukashenka. The plot of the film is based on revealing the facts of corruption and human rights violations in Belarus, the Belarusian ruler is portrayed as a cruel dictator.

Belarus doesn’t intend to embroil in the information conflict with Russia, Lukashenka said on Thursday during his working trip to Minsk region.

“No way should we get involved in this fight. Let them make statements, let them talk whatever they want. In no case should be get involved! Why do we need to escalate the conflict? If they need to escalate the conflict, if they need another enemy, let them do it. But we should not get involved in this, get exposed to it. We do not need it,” the head of state said.

The relations between Moscow and Minsk have been straining in recent years due to disputes over milk export, customs duties, and gas debt. Last week, the tension escalated into unconcealed conflict, RIA Novosti reminds. President of Russia Dmitry Medvedev said in the run-up to the presidential election in Belarus that the Belarusian leadership made a series of attempts to turn Russia into the country’s main enemy. Medvedev noted Lukashenka’s election campaign was built only on anti-Russian rhetoric and called such behavior of the Belarusian authorities dishonest.
