Sviatoslav Mileykovsky

Sviatoslav Mileykovsky is a 44-year-old Belarusian historian and former businessman from Minsk, who became politically active during the 2020 protests against the Belarusian government. Initially a coordinator for Viktor Babariko's signature collection efforts, Mileykovsky later distanced himself from the opposition movement and publicly criticized leading figures such as Svetlana Tikhanovskaya. After fleeing to Lithuania in August 2020 due to threats and pressure, he initially worked in various manual labor jobs before transitioning to a role related to automobiles. Recently, he gained attention for publicly denouncing the Tikhanovskys at a meeting in Vilnius, labeling them a 'threat to Lithuania's national security,' which sparked controversy and led to his removal by police.
