The Belarusian reggae band Botanic project, who fled Belarus because of repression and Ukraine because of war, performs at the concert in the center of Warsaw. Belarusian musicians had a concert at the center of Warsaw as a final part for Belarusian intellectual book festival 'Pradmova' (from Belarusian it means 'foreword'). Some musicians were detained or had another kind of repression during mass protests in Belarus after the presidential elections on August 9, 2020. Because of safety reasons many Belarusian musicians, poets, writers and culture people were forced to leave the country. Some of them were forced to save their lives twice: when they left Belarus because of repression and because of war in Ukraine. On June 19, the media wrote that Verkhovna Rada of the Ukraine supported the draft law that barred Belarusian books and Russian music.
