Belarusian opposition leader Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya said President Alexander Lukashenko is not fundamentally changing his alignment despite diplomatic engagement with the West, characterizing his outreach as a survival strategy rather than a genuine shift away from Russia. Tsikhanouskaya noted that Lukashenko remains dependent on Russian support and is merely attempting to reduce pressure on his regime while continuing internal repression.
