He remained the only contender for the post after the speaker of the House of Commons, Penny Mordont, refused to fight further. A candidate must have at least 100 votes from the Tory members of the parliament to stand in the election. As the ruling committee of the party decided, if only one person succeeds in this matter - he automatically becomes the leader of the party, and the prime minister - the RIA NEWS reported. 6 Ukraine A resolution was submitted to the Ukrainian parliament that recognizes Belarus as a country, temporarily occupied by Russia. According to Aleksiy Goncharenko, a deputy from the political party "European Solidarity" - "Ukraine recognizes Belarus as temporarily occupied by Russia".

The Ukrainian deputies are also trying to achieve the exclusion of Belarus from the UN and the IMF. Recently, the leader of the Belarusian opposition, Svetlana Tikhanovskaya, appealed to Vladimir Zelensky to join forces in the fight against the official leadership of Russia and Belarus.
