Presidential elections were held in Belarus on 19 December 2010.[1] The elections had originally been planned for the beginning of 2011. However, the final date was set during an extraordinary session of the National Assembly on 14 September 2010.[2]
Of the ten candidates, incumbent President Alexander Lukashenko was declared the winner by the Central Election Commission with 80% of the vote. Andrei Sannikov received the second-highest percentage.[3][4] After a protest was violently suppressed by riot police the night after the elections,[5] hundreds of protesters and seven presidential candidates were arrested by the KGB, including runner-up Sannikov.[6]
Western countries decried the election as a farce and an egregious affront to democracy and human rights. The United States and the European Union called for the release of all imprisoned candidates, but took no further action except a travel ban on Lukashenko. By contrast, countries such as Syria,[7] China,[7] Vietnam,[7] and Russia[8] congratulated the re-elected incumbent.
