Zianon Pazniak, the leader of Christian Conservative Party Belarusian Popular Front, announced today that his initiative group would not submit signature lists to the Electoral Commissions. Hence Pazniak would not be on the slate list but would continue campaigning for his own alternative to the official elections, a Popular Vote. This initiative is explained in English on a website, created to promote the plan.
However, both main oppositional rivals, Milinkevich and Kazulin, had both stated their rejection of Popular Vote, as inefficient and not aimed at unification of the opposition but rather at its disorientation.
So at this point with Pazniak and Vajtovich out of the game, Milinkevich, Kazulin, Fralou, Hajdukevich, and Lukashenka are most probably going to compete for registration as presidential candidates at CEC once they submit their signature lists. A deadline for that is actually tomorrow.

During today’s session of PACE when Alaxandar Milinkevich was giving his keynote speech, a Russian controversial politician, Vladimir Zhirinovsky, known for his nationalistic views, cried out to Belarusian opposition leader, “Speak Russian, not French!”
Mr. Zhirinovsky, I am sure, had an opportunity to listen to the translation of Milinkevich’s address, which included a very detailed description of the current Belarusian political situation. Unfortunately, transcript of his speech is not yet available in English. But for all of you, including Mr. Zhirinovsky, who can read Russian, there it is in the language of Dostoyevsky and Putin:
