Belarusian journalist Franak Viacorka told DW that although it's not entirely clear why opposition candidate Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya left the country, she had dropped her intention to join a protest after talking to the secret services. "They achieved what they wanted," Viacorka said. "They divided protesters from their leaders."
