Fun fact about Alexander Lukashenko, the fraudulent dictator attempting to hold onto power in #Belarus: he is an admirer of Adolf Hitler's methods of imposing "order" on Germany.
Another fun fact about Lukashenko: since 1994, he & his cronies are estimated to have illegally misappropriated an estimated $10 billion. They make extensive use of offshore companies to do this, especially in the British Virgin Islands.
