Speculation over Belarus Leader Lukashenko's Health Grows as Absences Continue.

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko's absence from a ceremony in Minsk has sparked speculation about his health, as he has not been seen in public since Tuesday. The 68-year-old leader appeared unwell during commemorations in Moscow last week and did not speak at an event in Minsk marking the anniversary for the first time in his long presidency. Lukashenko's office has declined to comment, but opposition news outlet Euroradio reported that he was taken to an elite Minsk clinic on Saturday.
