Aljaksandr Lukašenka has been the President of Belarus since 1994, making him one of the longest-serving leaders in Europe. His presidency is marked by authoritarian rule, characterized by the suppression of dissent, rigged elections, and human rights violations. Lukašenka's regime has faced international criticism and sanctions, particularly in the wake of the 2020 presidential elections, which were widely regarded as fraudulent. Despite his controversial leadership, he has managed to maintain a degree of international engagement, particularly with Russia, while often leveraging geopolitical tensions to his advantage.
