epa08611083 (L- to R) Former director of the Kuplovsky theater Pavel Latushko, representative of Belarusian politician Viktor Babariko's campaign office Maria Kolesnikova, confidant of ex-presidential candidate Svetlana Tikhanovskaya Olga Kovalkova, lawyer Maxim Znak, coordinator of the strike of the Minsk Tractor Plant (MTZ) Sergei Dylevsky attend a press conference of the Coordination Council of the Belarusian opposition in Minsk, Belarus, 18 August 2020. The Belarus opposition has called for a general strike from 17 August, a day after tens of thousands of demonstrators gathered in the capital Minsk in peaceful protest. Long-time president Lukashenko, in a defiant speech on 16 August, rejected calls to step down amid mounting pressure after unrest erupted in the country over alleged poll-rigging and police violence at protests following election results claiming that he had won a landslide victory in the 09 August elections.
