Statement of Natallia Pinchuk
Wife of Ales Bialiatski, Chair of Viasna Human Rights Centre, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate (2022), and Former Political Prisoner of Belarus
“The greatest fear of any #political #prisoner is to be forgotten. Today is an extraordinary day that I feared would never come. My husband, #AlesBialiatski, is one of 123 prisoners who have been released from prison in #Belarus. Ales is not only out of prison but now also safely out of Belarus and we will be reunited shortly. I could not be more grateful for the help of President @realdonaldtrump & White House Special Envoy @johnpcoale, who made this happen. And I remain thankful for #Norway Prime Minister @jonasgahrstore and his Government for providing me a home and protecting me over these many years. Of course, our family also appreciates the efforts of countless others that supported Ales and me through this terrible journey.”
