Since his student days, Andrei Dmitriev (born 1981) has been actively involved in strengthening Belarusian civil society and building democracy and the rule of law. Dmitrijew has repeatedly been subjected to official repression because of his political activities. Even after serving his most recent prison sentence of 18 months, Dmitrijew does not want to leave Belarus and continues his political and civil society work. In contrast to more than a few Belarusian opposition members, Dmitrijew views the resumption of contacts between the West and Belarus as inevitable. Otherwise, Belarus would lose its independence and finally fall under Vladimir Putin’s rule.
