Belarus Strongman’s Tactics

FILE - In this Aug. 11, 2020, file photo, a woman fights with a police officer as others detain a protester in the capital of Minsk, Belarus. When Belarusians protested what they called a fraudulent election on Aug. 9, police used tear gas, flash grenades and beatings in a harsh crackdown. But now President Alexander Lukashenko is moving to squelch the demonstrations gradually with vague promises of reforms mixed with threats, court summonses and the selective jailing of leading activists.
