Opposition’s defense initiative branded “extremist”

November 28, BPN. The Belarusian authorities have labelled the Paspalitaje Rušeńnie (Eng.: mass call-up) initiative as an “extremist” group, the Viasna Human Rights Center reports.

Opposition security chief Valer Sachaščyk set it up in September in order to protect Belarus’ independence.

Pro-government sources say that the initiative was planning to undermine the republic’s sovereignty and public safety.
