Musicians, Actors, Writers Supporting Opposition Banned from Mass Media in Belarus

Major radio stations, newspapers, and other mass media in Belarus have received an informal list of musicians, actors, and writers who should be banned from mass media. All those who were listed have supposedly expressed their support for the Belarusian political opposition. Although the list is unsigned, it is generally understood that the list came from the Government of Belarusian authoritarian leader Lukashenko. Primarily Belarusian and Russian names are on the list, but some world-renowned rock groups, such as “Pet Shop Boys,” have also been included.
