 In all Minsk electoral constituencies a poster is on display: a dark blue background, and in front a hand holding a glass ball. Some posters have just one hand underneath the ball: others have another hand on top of it. Inside the ball are the contours of the country’s borders enclosing the national colours of Belarus. Above and below are the words Stability, Referendum, and Pro Belarus. This is 16 October: the last day of campaigning before the referendum and elections.

 On this photograph are not the children who have died in Beslan. On this photograph are bodies of the Chechen children who died by the hand of the Russian army in autumn 1999. Their deaths did not warrant the call-up of the UN Security Council, and Dr. Roshal did not rush to the scene of the tragedy with water and medicines to try and persuade terrorists to spare children’s lives.
