Popular Front to stage pickets in support of communists

Kanstantsin Smolikau who runs the regional branch of the Belarusian Popular Front in Vitsebsk, has filed an application with the local authorities seeking to stage a series of pickets titled "Hands Off Political Parties!".
This is how him and his party fellows want to demonstrate solidarity with the Party of Communists which is currently facing a threat of closure, reports Belapan.

Smolikau has asked for permission to hold pickets from February 15 through March 1 on Freedom Square in the city center in order to draw attention of those who support the multi-party system in Belarus. The city hall is expected to respond not later than February 13.
