🚨Popularly labelled as #Europe's last dictator, Alexander Lukashenko, the President of Belarus wins again. 

Since Belarus was created, Lukashenko has been at the helm of politics. The political history of #Belarus and Lukashenko goes hand in hand. 

This was his 7th consecutive electoral victory to lead Belarus, one of the 15th post-Soviet republics. 

In an election where most of his opposition either jailed or exiled #Lukashenko secured 87% of the votes. 

His victory in the 2020 Presidential elections led to high-voltage protests in the country and many sanctions. Yet, he has continued to hold on to power. 

Lukashenko is one of the few supporters of Putin and continues to enjoy a close relationship with Kremlin.
