Alexandr Lukasjenko
Alexandr Lukasjenko, born on August 30, 1954, is the long-standing president of Belarus, having held power since 1994. Often described as Europe's last dictator, he has maintained his rule through controversial elections marred by allegations of fraud and suppression of dissent. His tenure has been characterized by a centralized authoritarian regime, severe crackdowns on opposition, and widespread human rights violations. Despite widespread protests, especially following the disputed 2020 presidential election, Lukasjenko has shown little inclination to relinquish power, often suggesting that he might groom his son as a potential successor.
