ABC News’ Patrick Reevell reports from Belarus, where 100,000 people marched in Minsk, on President Alexander Lukashenko’s birthday, to protest his rule, despite a heavy security presence.
The protests, unprecedented in Belarus for their size and duration, began after the Aug. 9 presidential vote that Police violently cracked down on demonstrators in the first days of the protests, arresting some 7,000 people and beating hundreds. Although they have scaled back, detentions continue; Viasna reported scores of people were arrested in Minsk and in the city of Grodno on Sunday.
Despite the stalemate between Lukashenko and the opposition, protesters say they are determined not to tire. Some of the placards they carried Sunday showed a lively sense of humor.

Minsk, Sunday 6 September
He was voted for by millions. Tens of thousands of angry and aggrieved and dissenting voters should not be allowed to hold the choice of millions of others hostage. To do so is give way to anarchy. Few thousands should never hold the opinion of majority captive
