\n MEDIKINNAI, Lithuania \u2014 More than 50,000 Lithuanians joined hands Sunday in a human chain stretching 20 miles from the capital of Vilinus to the Belarus border to express solidarity with their neighbor\u2019s dramatic struggle for democracy.<\/p>\n

The massive event, dubbed \u201cthe Freedom Way\u201d resembled another historic event on August 23, 1989, when over a million people in the nations of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania formed the Baltic Way, a human chain stretching from Vilnius to Tallinn, to demand an end to the Soviet occupation.<\/p>\n

The message Sunday was similar: The people of Belarus deserve elections that are free, fair and democratic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThirty years ago, Lithuania broke its shackles of oppression, showing the world that we are free and, first of all, free in our spirit. Today, the time has come for our Belarusian brothers to say the dear word \u2018freedom,\u2019\u201d Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda said.<\/p>\n
