Call Belarus For What It Is - A Terror Regime, No More No Less

With  Belavia airplanes forced to return and European airlines avoiding the  Belarusian airspace, the first implications of Alyaksandr Lukashenka's  air piracy are immediately clear. While the fate of Roman Protasevich  remains unclear, there has been a clear voice from the EU and  Transatlantic unity on this grievous matter. Yet, it remains to be seen  whether this serious breach of international law will also have  repercussions for relations with Russia? Maria Ciupka and Wojciech  Przybylski discuss the implications of the piracy case as well as other  news stories related to Czech-Polish dispute over the Turów coal mine  and Czech surplus deaths because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the second  half of the episode you can hear excerpts of a discussion with Joerg  Forbrig (German Marshall Fund of the United States) and Serge Kharytonau  (iSANS) concerning the hijacking of the Ryanair flight and the  kidnapping of Roman Protasevich by the Belarusian regime.
