A new book by the famous American historian and publicist Yuri Felshtinsky "Natallia Radzina's Belarus: Journalist vs. Dictator" has been published in Ukrainian by the publishing house "Oleg Fedorov's Drukarsky Dvir".
The Russian edition of this book was previously published in Leipzig by ISIA Media.
Yuri Felshtinsky is the author of such books as "FSB Blows Up Russia," "The Corporation: Russia and the KGB under President Putin," "World War III. Battle for Ukraine" and others - this time turned to the history of modern Belarus, described through the life of one person: the famous Belarusian journalist Natallia Radzina.
About his book Yuri Felshtinsky writes:
"Natallia Radzina is a witness and participant of Belarusian events of the last decades. In the book, together with her colleagues and associates - Andrei Sannikov, Dmitry Bondarenko and Alexandra Gerasimenei - she tells how Belarusians have been selflessly fighting for the freedom of their country for decades. Through the fate of one journalist, the fate of the people who defend their independence is traced.
The reader will plunge into the life of this brave woman, who went from an ordinary journalist to the editor-in-chief of the leading Belarusian opposition website "Charter'97" (Charter97. org.org), and will witness the revolutionary events and protest movement that began in Belarus in 1995 and are still going on today, will get acquainted with the chronicle of numerous political murders organized by the Belarusian security services on the orders of dictator Alexander Lukashenko, will experience her prison days together with Radzina, will feel the joys of her release and the complexities of a unique escape from the KGB from Belarus, will be an eyewitness to vivid and unforgettable meetings with such famous contemporaries as Stanislav Shushkevich, Lech Walesa, Andrzej Wajda, Boris Nemtsov, Leonid Nevzlin, Hillary Clinton and others.
Reading this book, the reader will see that Belarus, although it was part of the Russian Empire and the USSR, is a separate and distinctive country; that since the Middle Ages Belarus has considered itself part of Europe and oriented towards the West, not the East; that the future of Belarus, freed from Lukashenko's dictatorial regime, is with the European Union, not with Russia, which has actually occupied Belarus and whose security can ultimately be ensured only by NATO membership.
But the main conclusion the reader can draw is that, despite temporary defeats and spilled blood, arrests and executions of the last decades, lack of real help from outside, Belarusian democracy is alive, and Belarusians continue to fight for freedom.
The book will be of interest not only to historians, journalists and political scientists studying Belarus, but also to a wide range of readers."
