[1St Title : Ryanair plane flying from Greece to Lithuania has been diverted to Minsk]


[A Ryanair plane flying from Greece to Lithuania
has been diverted to Minsk,
with Belarusian opposition figures
saying it was done so a dissident
journalist on board could be arrested.
The opposition Nexta channel on
Telegram said its ex-editor
Roman Protasevich had been detained.
Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda
accused Belarus of an "abhorrent action"
and demanded his release.
Belarus state media said the plane
had been diverted because of a bomb scare.
Opposition leader Svetlana Tikhanovskaya,
who was beaten by Alexander Lukashenko
last year in presidential polls widely
denounced as rigged,
also demanded Mr Protasevich's release.]

They need the diplomatic equivalent of having their teeth kicked in. The EU need to be incredibly harsh with their reprisal to this act of terrorism.

Not Crimes,
But verbal attacks on his Leader.


His Dad has stated
he thinks his son's nose is broken!

[Niamh.]

Outrageous story, poor guy. I hope everyone sticks together on this

[Ammi]

…it’s outrageous and unacceptable in every way…their actions must breach every international law and lead for no protection at all for anyone…horrendous…

[bots]

the death penalty is active there, so after his "confession" they could then execute him and that will be that

[Cherie]

wonder where his girlfriend is

[joeysteele]

This cannot be allowed to happen.
Think of the trauma too to other passengers.

This has not ONLY to must have the lip service condemnation but have all Nations absolutely furious such an act could be done.
However massive repercussions must come into being against Belarus for this, and for any other leaders and Countries that support it.

Air travel has to be safe, when incidents happen, other government's of the World talk big but end up doing very little.
Including ours.

This issue is extremely concerning it could even be thought of never mind carried out.
An air travel company has to be able to ensure the safety of it's passengers.

This is horrendous and frightening.

[bots]

it's very difficult for countries to take any meaningful action. They can apply more sanctions, but they are pretty meaningless. By stopping the airline, they are basically cutting of any residents means of escape from the country. We wont be going to war over it, and they have Russia's backing should the UN try to do anything. So, i'm afraid it's not looking too good for the guy they grabbed

This is a disgraceful act from him and Belarus.

That has to be a given on commercial air travel.

ONLY a dictator would allow this to happen, or if he didn't approve, apologise and restore trust in the safety of travel over his Country.

Aged 26
but put to death.

Very Sad.


He should not have flown.

[Ammi]

…but if he hadn’t flown, there would have been a different way…I’m sure it wasn’t thought, oh hijacking an aeroplane is the only way so wouldn’t that be a fortunate thing if he was to fly…this hijacking can not be tolerated…there has to be a world stand against this…

No.

They shouldn't have pulled down a legitimate passenger aircraft just going about its business..
Which should have been safe.

Its an Act of War

it was their plane.

Sadly that President is in Power

He was broadcasting against him on TV

So you see why he got his Fighter Jet
alongside that Commercial Plane

[bots]

you have to wonder how the belarus officers got on the plane so easily. Obviously they must have been tailing him for some time

Yes Nicky, fair enough.

I give up sorry, I never know what you really think anymore, sorry.
I can't do this.

no fair enough, i can see why some see Lukashenko as dictator

but not me


the real threats to EU and europe are Hungary's Orban, Turkey's Erdogan those two i find more radical especially the latter whom had been heavily involved in that azerbaijan-armenia conflict


Lukashenko is more a ''controversial leader'' same as Poland's Duda



Putin is a good leader (ok his views regarding Ukraine not so much or at least that is more complicated so i'm not judging him on that) but i'm looking forward to Putin & Biden meeting next month (also good things what Putin has done, such as support for Italy in coronacrisis, willing to share Sputnik vaccine with some countries who are interested (Italy, Germany, few others)

no, i mean these guys actually flew on the plane with him, so someone checked them onto that plane.


I imagine when a fighter jet came alongside the plane and demanded it land the plane crew would have been crapping it

[Niamh.]

tbh Lukashenko had built a special prison complex for the journalists and protesters, so they aren't in same prisons as murderers or rapists or the real criminals anyway

as for the air travel, well i can't blame them getting kinda paranoid now


so EU needs to be very careful here, and try to solve this in a peaceful way, last thing we need is a war (that isn't what Lukashenko and government wants either)

yes very sad, but Lukashenko is sadly not the only bad leader

up there alongside Hungary's Orban and Turkey's Erdogan for me personally



Poland's Duda is controversial, but still he wants to listen to opposition that is at least something


Russia's Putin well he can be called many things but he won't go as radical as a Lukashenko, Erdogan, Orban mainly because he is very patriotic for his country, most of Putin supporters are tbh, and Putin at least is willing to send help to other countries amid coronacrisis for example (or now going in talks with US president Biden in Switzerland pretty soon from now)
