Photo Fact: Minsk Protested Against Integration With Its Eastern Neighbor

The famous "Freedom March" was preceded by a rally for the independence of Belarus.

On the eve of the meeting of the Belarusian and Russian leaders, which may result in the signing of crucial documents for our country, Salidarnasts reminds us of the events that took place twenty years ago.

In October 1999, one of the most large-scale protests of those years - "Freedom March" - took place in Minsk.

The march was preceded by a rally on Bangalore Square, where participants protested against integration with Russia. Less than two months were left before the signing of the agreement on creating the "union state" in Moscow.
