Belarusian Minister of Internal Affairs told RIA Novosti that the police is ready to disperse protests expected to occur during the Congress and their organizers are known to the authorities.

“The administrators of the chats that call for people to go out into the streets are known. We work with them, we control them. They try to make people think that those who want to break the law and go out into the streets are many. In fact, there is just a handful of them.”
