Belarus Re-Elects Lukashenko for Seventh Term
Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has been re-elected for the seventh term with 87.6% of the votes, as reported by the Central Election Commission.

Lukashenko's main opponents, including Sergey Tikhanovsky and Viktor Babariko, were either jailed or forced into exile following the disputed 2020 election.
