"Ladies and gentlemen, we all have experience of unhealed wounds and injustices that may define the present-day situation for us. This also applies to Belarus. We should therefore bear three things in mind. We should try to gain an objective understanding of the situation in the country, or in other words avoid picking and choosing our sources of information, and instead try not to ignore anything that does not fit in with a black-and-white view of Belarus. We should also not exclude anyone from discussions, even if we do not necessarily always agree with their views. Finally, Belarus is not merely Lukashenko, or vice versa. EU policy should strive to improve the situation of the country and its people. I do not take the side of Lukashenko’s government, nor do I support its abject failures, but I would like to warn that a policy of force using sanctions, demonisation of the regime’s representatives and propagandistic simplification of the problem usually only serves to escalate the situation, and resolves nothing."@en1
