 Printed Version
The Belarussian Popular Front was wiped out as a parliamentary force in these elections (it failed to win a single seat in all 3 rounds).
The Fronts preferred to operate as umbrella movements under which any group, including Communists, could gather providing they accepted the stated policies of national revival, privatization and democratization but without the discipline of a party structure.
The Front has always been critical of Lukashenka for what it saw as his increasingly dictatorial role including imposing his own appointees on local and regional councils and increasing disproportionately the budgets of the interior and security ministries.
