Lukashenko Vs. Biden

Apparently there is controversy regarding the legitimacy of President Lukashenko of Belarus:

There is a similar controversy regarding the legitimacy of President Biden of the US. In a sense that's what the so-called 1/6 hearings are all about.

But note the difference: anti-Lukashenko demonstrators are hailed as heroes, while pro-Trump demonstrators are regarded as "rioters" and "insurrectionists".

Personally I think the US is not qualified to rule on the legitimacy of elections in Belarus, any more than it is to rule on its own elections. In my view, Joe Biden's inauguration was as much a "thieves' meeting" as was Lukashenko's.

But that's just me, considering all of the available evidence - something the US Congress apparently refuses to do.
