Thank you very much. I really appreciate this opportunity for us to engage in a dialogue. I hope your dinner last night was delightful. I was supposed to be there, but other things got in the way.
One of the fundamentals that's necessary in a growing democracy is the freedom of the press. What kind of an impact is it having in Belarus, this lack of freedom for the press to speak out and report? Who actually controls the media right now? What exists in the way of media? What I'm looking for is what kinds of opportunities or spaces are there for critiques of the current government? There are probably not too many, but I'd like to know what there is. You always look for hope.
