Aliaksandr Lukashenka
Aliaksandr Lukashenka has been the President of Belarus since 1994, often referred to as 'Europe's last dictator' due to his authoritarian rule and suppression of dissent. His administration has been marked by widespread human rights abuses, electoral fraud, and a lack of political freedoms. In recent years, he has faced significant opposition, particularly during the 2020 presidential election, which was widely criticized for being rigged. His regime's actions have drawn international condemnation and sanctions.
