U.S. President's Special Envoy John Cole stated in an interview with the New York Times that he expects the release of Belarusian political prisoners soon.

It should be recalled that as a result of previous visits by the American delegation, 438 people were released: June 21, 2025 — 14 political prisoners, September 11 — 51 people, December 13 — 123 people, March 19, 2026 — 250 people.

However, the last release took place five months ago, in mid-March.

Currently, according to human rights defenders, there are 878 political prisoners in Belarus.
