The BPR Council has demanded to release Syarhei Kavalenka detained in Vitsebsk for having hoisted a white-red-white flag. “The Council of the Belarusian People’s Republic” is delighted with the brave action of Belarusian patriots who hoisted a white-red-white flag on Vitsebsk Christmas Tree (the highest tree in Belarus) on January 7 and demands to release a BNF activist Syarhei Kavalenka detained for it”, - is said in the statement distributed by Radio “Liberty”.
