Belarus opposition warns against concessions to Lukashenko over release of US prisoner

The United States should not be "fooled" by Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko into offering concessions following the release of a U.S. prisoner freed as a gift to Donald Trump, a senior aide to the exiled opposition leader of Belarus said. U.S. officials announced on Wednesday the release of Youras Ziankovich, 47, a naturalised American jailed in Belarus on charges of conspiring to kill Lukashenko and stage a coup.
