Sakharov ödülü kazanan Polonyalı-Belaruslu gazeteci Andrzej Poczobut, ABD aracılığıyla gerçekleştirilen uluslararası takas anlaşması kapsamında Beyaz Rusya'daki cezaevinden serbest bırakıldı.

Polish-Belarusian journalist Andrzej Poczobut has been released from a Belarusian prison after serving five years. His freedom was secured through a multi-country exchange facilitated by the United States.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk confirmed the release, sharing a photo and welcoming Poczobut back to Poland. This development marks a significant moment for the journalist and highlights international diplomatic efforts.

The release of Andrzej Poczobut, a prominent journalist and Sakharov Prize laureate, underscores the impact of international diplomacy on human rights cases and press freedom in authoritarian states.
