Loika on Lukashenka: Well, you can't monitor the democratic forces' agenda to such an extent
Speaking at the All-Belarusian People's Assembly, Alexander Lukashenka talked a lot about his opponents, recounting almost all the main news of the democratic forces in his own interpretation. Both about the conflicts between Siarhei Tsikhanouski and the Office, and about the possible relocation of the Office from Lithuania to Poland… In the new analytical episode of "Tok", journalist Volha Loika ironized about this.

"The degree of his involvement in opposition affairs even somewhat frightened me, frankly speaking. Well, you can't monitor the democratic forces' agenda to such an extent.
Alexander Ryhoravich, that's it, you already had the 2025 elections. The psychotherapist prescribed treatment for you - to hold new elections. You held them. It didn't help. Well, I don't know what to do with this next. It seems to me that this trauma - it's for life now. And I'm afraid it might be generally incompatible with life."
Lukashenka traditionally avoided calling his opponents by name at the All-Belarusian People's Assembly — only the derogatory "tikhushki" (quiet ones) and "lakhushki" (suckers). And in his speech, he even mentioned minor scandals — like with Coordination Council delegate Volha Karpushonak and Pavel Latushka. "Take Lakhushkin. Why did you want to rape some woman from your team?" Lukashenka said.
"Lukashenka himself admitted that the number of KGB officers here [abroad] actually corresponds to the number of activists here. Listen, the budget might not withstand such a burden, by God, if every dissenter of Lukashenka is assigned a KGB officer. They know not only what Pavel Pavlovich [Latushka] did, not only what Pavel Pavlovich didn't do, but also what he wanted [to do].
"That is, the degree of indoctrination of employees is such..." Volha Loika comments on his speech.
