On 9 August 2020, Alexander Lukashenko ran for the presidential elections in Belarus, again. It was already the fifth time in his 26-year term of office. The apparent rigging of the elections subsequently brought hundreds of thousands of people to the streets across the country. It became the largest mass protests in the EU’s neighbouring country since the it became independent.
