Council of Belarusian Intelligentsia wants to unite opposition for election
Chairman of the Council Uladzimir Kolas said this on June 6 at the meeting with the democratic activists in Homel.
According to Kolas, the members of the
Council are visiting the regions now, they have already been in Hrodna and
Mahileu regions. The Council wants to hear the opinions of the local opposition
members and to urge ordinary party members to put pressure on their leaders so
that they would unite.
Kolas has
underlined that the authorities are consolidated and tough while the opposition
is disunited. The reason for this disunity lies in the leaders' personal
issues. In his opinion, getting united before the parliamentary election is
what the opposition needs now, reports BelaPAN.
He is convinced
that people in the regions are ready to be united, their work is consolidated
and well-coordinated. Kolas says that only the leaders create the problem
slowing this process down.
