February 12, Pozirk.<\/em><\/strong> A faction of the Belarusian Christian Democracy declared political prisoner Pavie\u0142 Sieviaryniec the party\u2019s sole leader at a meeting in Warsaw on February 10, Radyjo Svaboda<\/em> reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It declared Hieorhij D\u017amitruk to be the BCD co-chairman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Co-chairs Vital Ryma\u0161e\u016dski and Volha Kavalkova, spokesman Dzianis Sado\u016dski and former Mahilo\u016d branch head Aleh Aksiona\u016d have been expelled from the BCD, the meeting said. Candidates for the upcoming Coordination Council election have been selected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As media reported the meeting today, the BCD website criticized the reshuffle as D\u017amitruk\u2019s \u201cprivate initiative.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D\u017amitruk was expelled from a party committee last year, it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No more than five \u201cverified\u201d Christian Democrats were present at his event, it added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHieorhij D\u017amitruk deliberately misleads Belarusian media, presenting the activities of his private initiative as the work of the BCD organizing committee,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It accused the politician of staging a provocation to discredit the BCD \u201cas part of the democratic movement as a whole,\u201d and claimed that his family business was dependent on the Belarusian regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The legitimate BCD leadership last met on February 8, it said. It made its own list of candidates for the Coordination Council.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
