In connection with the information about cases of unacceptable behavior on the part of Andrei Stryzhak, co-founder of the BYSOL Solidarity Foundation, who, according to several Belarusian activists, sent unsolicited explicit photos and committed other unsolicited sexualized acts, we, representatives of the Belarusian human rights community, declare the following.

We express our support to the victims, treat their words with seriousness and sympathy, and are grateful to those who have found the strength to speak out.
