"This is a strong sign of Parliament's determination to strengthen our ties and show our support to the democratic forces and civil society in Belarus, in their fight for a free, independent and democratic country", Metsola said, after signing a cooperation agreement with Belarusian opposition leader Svetlana Tikhanovskaya.

In a statement, the EP leader assured that Belarus "will not become a forgotten corner of Europe".

Svetlana Tikhanovskaya is a Belarusian politician and human rights activist who became known after the 2020 presidential election as the country's main opposition candidate.
