#Belarus A conversation between Natalia Eismont, #Lukashenko’s spokesperson, and Dzmitry Baskov,head of BIHA,was leaked.Two high-ranking officials discuss how they would personally go,cut white-red-white ribbons and deploy tear gas against residents. Lukashenko has indeed only 3%
People resembling Eismont and Baskov were indeed noticed among those who attacked #Minsk residents in October. During their leaked conversation, Eismont twice asked whether she had to bring two boxes of wine from the Russian ambassador. They sound like an organised crime group
And they behave the same way - watch the video of that evening.More importantly,the mere fact that the conversation was leaked suggests a turmoil in the system. Only a few special services groups can wiretap a conversation like that. Another sign that the system is not monolithic
