- Lyudmila GLADKAYA is a propagandist of the Lukashenko regime. She is a journalist publishing in “Belarus Segodnya", the official (state-owned) newspaper of the Presidential Administration. Her published opinions/articles and broadcasts are one of the main mouthpieces of state propaganda belittling and discrediting independent journalists and opposition supporters who seek to demonstrate evidence of serious human rights violations committed by the regime. There are recorded instances where she has interrogated persons and her journalism is specifically endorsed by the Lukashenko regime. GLADKAYA therefore is or has been involved in repressing civil society and democratic opposition in Belarus, and for serious human rights violations in Belarus.
