1/3 The scale of protest in Belarus is smaller today than in the past two days. A de facto curfew is introduced in the centres of all the major cities. In Minsk there are 3 opposition areas on the outskirts atm. Almost no reports from the regions due to lack of internet.

2/3 I think the wisest thing now would be to temporarily postpone the protests and wait for the authorities& #39; reaction. At some point they& #39;d have to bring back the internet. That& #39;d mean that people will actually see what Lukashenko did. Atm only tech-savvy people know.

3/3 It is clear now that Lukashenko no longer has popular support. He only remains in power with the help of the security forces. This situation can& #39;t last long. He would either have to put tens of thousands of people in jail or to make curfew permanent - both options unrealistic
