If our country remains under the dictatorship of the regime and under Russia\u2019s influence, it will always pose a threat to both Europe and the entire world. That is why supporting Belarus is an investment in peace. If such a distant country as New Zealand supports Belarusians, it will be a powerful signal of solidarity: Belarus remains on the global agenda,\u201d<\/i> Tsikhanouskaya emphasized.<\/p>\n<p>During the meeting, the discussion also touched on pressure on Lukashenka. Tsikhanouskaya called for maintaining a clear distinction between the people and the regime.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-494739\" src=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/photo_2025-11-03_14-48-02-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/photo_2025-11-03_14-48-02-1.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/photo_2025-11-03_14-48-02-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/photo_2025-11-03_14-48-02-1-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/photo_2025-11-03_14-48-02-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/photo_2025-11-03_14-48-02-1-533x400.jpg 533w, https:\/\/reform.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/photo_2025-11-03_14-48-02-1-1067x800.jpg 1067w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya met today with New Zealand Foreign Minister Winston Peters.
