Lukashenko Admits He Determined Election Results

In an interview with Russian newspaper Izvestia, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko admitted manipulating the 2006 presidential elections: “For your information, 93% voted for me on the last elections. . . . . I ordered to make it not 93% but rather some 80%, I do not remember now how much. Because more than 90% is psychologically unacceptable.” Belarus opposition leaders have asked the General Prosecutor's Office to investigate fraud in the elections.
