Łukašenka to take oath of office on March 25

March 20, Pozirk. Alaksandar Łukašenka has scheduled his swearing-in ceremony for March 25, Pul Pervogo, his unofficial Telegram channel has announced.
It might not be a mere coincidence that the ceremony coincides with Freedom Day, a major opposition holiday marking the anniversary of Belarus’ short-lived independence in 1918.
Belarus’ seventh presidential election on January 21-26 took place in a purged political landscape amid a new wave of crackdown on regime critics. Belarus’ election authorities have declared Łukašenka winner with 86.82 percent of the vote.
Australia, Canada, the European Union, New Zealand and the United Kingdom and other democratic countries denounced the election as a sham.
