June 8, Pozirk.<\/em><\/strong> Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski met with Belarusian human rights advocate Ale\u015b Bialacki (Ales Bialiatski) on June 8 to congratulate him on registering a foundation in Poland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Polish foreign ministry, they discussed, among other issues, the activities of the Viasna Human Rights Center led by Bialacki. Sikorski reportedly welcomed the recent registration in Poland of the Ales Bialatski Foundation, which aims to \u201cprotect and promote human rights.\u201d He expressed gratitude to Bialacki for his participation in the Ko\u015bciuszko Forum in Gda\u0144sk last week, jointly organized by the Polish foreign ministry and the European Solidarity Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe in Poland are impressed by your steadfast stance and modesty, and above all, we are deeply grateful for your determination in the struggle for human rights,\u201d Sikorski was quoted as saying. \u201cWe appreciate your independence and focus on defending civil liberties.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ales Bialatski was released from a Belarusian prison in December 2025 as part of the \u201cdialogue with Belarus conducted by President Donald Trump’s administration,\u201d the ministry said. He was forcibly deported to Lithuania and continues his pro-democracy activities.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
