The brutal detention of Roman Protasevich is the top news of recent days. It shocked the entire civilized world, as never before have fighter jets been dispatched, and a foreign plane forced to land, just to arrest a journalist.

Roman Protasevich is known as the founder of the opposition Telegram channel Nexta. It featured many interesting news stories about the Belarusian authorities, including exclusive photos of Lukashenko’s elite cars. We do not think Batka liked this.

Yes-yes, the president of Belarus may seem like an ordinary guy at first glance – but in reality he has a very cool car fleet. TopGir once wrote in detail about Lukashenko’s garage – the cars there are no worse than Yanukovych’s in Mezhyhirya.

One can only admire the Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupe, and there’s also an armored Mercedes-Benz S600 Pullman Guard limousine and a Maybach. Lukashenko’s collection even includes two rare Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn vehicles from the ’50s and a 1958 Chevrolet Impala convertible.

And, of course, there would not be a collection without Soviet cars. Batka even has an armored ZIS-115, just like Stalin’s. From the USSR, Lukashenko inherited a ZIL-41045, which clearly must have been used by the party leadership of Belarus. Additionally, Lukashenko owns restored GAZ M20 Pobeda, GAZ-69, and Moskvich-2140.
