Oslo:

The award of the Nobel Peace Prize to jailed Belarusian human rights activist Ales Byalyatski is one for all political prisoners in Belarus, Belarusian opposition politician Pavel Latushko mentioned on Friday.

Byalyatski was awarded the prize on Friday alongside Russian human rights organisation Memorial and Ukrainian human rights organisation Middle for Civil Liberties.

“It isn’t just for him however for all political prisoners which we now have now in Belarus,” Latushko mentioned. “It motivates all of us to wrestle and we’re positive we’ll win with the dictatorship of (Alexander) Lukashenko.”
