Pavel Sevyarynets: Belarusian regime blackmails U.S.

Eviction of the church "New Life" the regime blackmails U.S. protestants, politician said. "Attempts to evict the" new life "illegal and antisocial. Church purchased barn in terrible condition and made him a great worship. And now it has taken this premise, without offering any decent compensation.

This is a material aspect of the case, and the morality of the state to look even worse, "- said co-chair the organizing committee of the party" Belarusian Christian Democracy "Pavel Sevyarynets.

According to the policy of repression of the church there is almost nowhere else in the world: "The Church, in which about a thousand worshipers, which organizes the campaign in defense of life, against alcoholism, magic and the occult, which is struggling with spiritual decline in the big city of Minsk is under attack powers. Almost nowhere in the world do not exist, to the church attacked and robbed in her room - except that in some Muslim countries. "

Pavel Sevyarynets names two versions why the authorities could decide to take the building from the church: "It could be an attack unprovoked cruelty in the upper regime. Angry that there is no money or that political prisoners are not writing pardon applications - so will destroy all that is left: to evict "Spring" evict "new life." Maybe this crude blackmail the United States. It is no secret that the majority of Americans - Protestants. Thus the power of blackmail - and we are here now take "your" and evicted, so come with us to the dialogue. Assistant Valentin Rybakov Lukashenko traveled to Washington, there were talking about something. Perhaps, the authorities want the second part of the dialogue. "

The politician calls of those who come to church "New Life" on the day of eviction, "Those who want to help the church, you need to contact the coordinator of protection" New Life ": the Bishop Vyacheslav Goncharenko, lawyer Sergei Lukanin (their contacts are online BCD). You can write a letter of support, to come to the church and to express their solidarity, to arrive there on the day of eviction December 5 to 11:00 and stay indoors. We must understand that if the "new life" really violently evicted, practically no one office or apartment in the near future will not be protected from the same. "

Pavel Sevyarynets warns officials who decided to withdraw the premises of the church: "The Church - an area free of the regime, for several years there was not a foot of the authorities. And the island of spiritual and civil liberty terribly annoying mode. I want to remind you that the former chairman of the Minsk City Executive Committee Mikhail Pavlov, who attempted to church "New Life", finished fatal disease of brain cancer. "

In Minsk Protestant community "New Life" once again take the building. Supreme Economic Court plans to hold eviction December 5 at 11:00. The reason for the eviction was that the land allegedly not used for the intended purpose. Leadership of the church is not going to leave the building.

Church "New Life" is fighting for its own premises in 2005. The authorities of Belarus said that the church can not use the land for religious purposes. Believers have been more than 30 trials, and in 2009 the Supreme Economic Court issued a final decision: the church must vacate the building. So far, "New Life" could defend the premises by the post-hunger strike and the great response to the case of the Belarusian society and the international community.
