About 20 released political prisoners sent abroad with certificates instead of passports

On December 13, 123 political prisoners were released from places of detention in Belarus, 114 of whom were then forcibly moved to the territory of Ukraine. As Viasna learned , about 20 people were moved abroad without passports.

Among those whose passports were taken away are well-known and media personalities, as well as those included in the "list of terrorists". The Belarusian side did not explain this in any way. Instead of passports, the political prisoners were issued identity certificates.

This was pointed out by Viasna human rights activist Uladz Labkovich at the first press conference:

"A certain selection took place. What the employees of the Belarusian special services who organized this special operation were thinking, I don't know."

Thus, as a result, people found themselves in another country without documents, money, or personal belongings, in a state of legal uncertainty.

This, however, is not the first time that Lukashenka's regime has practiced this. During the previous mass release of political prisoners on September 11, 2025, some of them also found themselves outside Belarus without passports.

    Трагедии нет, с этой справкой об удостоверении личности в любую западноевропейскую страну и заявление с просьбой об Азил. А потом уже пусть и Офис подключается и Народные амбасады в этих странах. Проблемы то нет... Просто шум информационный.
    PS/ сотни тысяч негров переплывают на лодках через Средиземное море без паспортов или выбрасывают их в море, чтобы скрыть прошлое, а потом под вымышленными именами просят Азил в западноевропейских странах. Дублин 2 или 3 даёт право этим странам рассмотреть прошение об Азиле у себя или выслать их в Польшу как 1 страна ЕС вьезда.

    "Гэта, аднак, ужо не першы раз, калі

    лукашысты

    такое практыкуюць."

    Мо не трэба спяшацца з вывадамі. Калі "лукашызм" - тэрмін, то трэба яшчэ упэўніцца ў тым, што ён мае права на існаванне.

    Вось убачым, дзе у выніку апынецца господин Х, прыкладам, тады і зразумеем ці ёсць нейкі асобны ад

    пуцінізма

    лукашызм.

    Нет паспорта, нет гражданства. Их его лишили по факту.
