Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya noted that she highly appreciates their efforts regarding "ensuring the release of political hostages in Belarus".

"The United States has leverage to help make this happen. This is about saving people's lives. Every day matters," she wrote.

Last week, Lithuanian media reported that Trump's special envoy John Cole is expected to visit Minsk this week. On March 18, he will arrive in Vilnius, and then head to Belarus.

During three previous visits of American delegations to Minsk, large groups of political prisoners were released: on June 21, 14 people were released, on September 11 — 51 political prisoners, and on December 13 — 123 people.

    У Трампа есть рычаги, а у стран Евросоюза, спонсоров Тихановской, получается нет, и все санкции безрезультатны?

    Неужели?, ЕС не отменит санкции до окончания войны.
    США единственные, кому по силам вытащить политзаключённых.

    Неужели?, У Трампа есть рычаги, потому что Трампу нужны калийные удобрения дешевые из РБ или еще что. Чисто торговля рабами
