 Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko surprised some onlookers by taking his 11-year-old son to the UN General Assembly in New York. 
  
 Kolya was photographed posing with his father alongside Barack and Michelle Obama at a reception for the summit on Monday. 
  
 But he was not just there for the sandwiches. 
  
 Kolya also joined world leaders in the seats of the general assembly hall as his father addressed delegates from around the world.

 But it was not a one-off "take your child to work day" for Belarus's ruling family. 
  
 The little boy in a suit often accompanies his father on official business, including a visit to Beijing for China's World War Two commemorations on 3 September. 
  
 Kolya was pictured watching Beijing's massive military parade alongside the likes of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and lining up for a photo shoot with leaders including Chinese President Xi Jinping.

 There are claims Mr Lukashenko is grooming his youngest son to be his successor. 
  
 Speaking to the BBC in 2012, Mr Lukashenko denied this and insisted the boy was so attached to him that he would not go to sleep without him. 
  
 Among other recent trips, Kolya went with his father to the United Arab Emirates in October 2014 where they visited the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi.

 He may be extraordinarily well travelled for an 11-year-old, but some critics have begun to question the increasing impact of all these appearances on his education. 
  
 Kolya missed a week of school in September this year - the same amount of time that he missed during six months of 2014, according to the Polish-funded, Belarusian-language TV station Belsat.

 Mr Lukashenko's tight grip on power has brought criticism from the West - with the US Bush administration describing him in 2005 as the "last dictator in Europe" at the head of an "outpost of tyranny". 
  
 Human rights groups accuse him of widespread abuses. 
  
 Meanwhile most Belarusian media channels are controlled by the government.

 Kolya, short for Nikolai, is the youngest of the president's three sons. 
  
 It has been widely reported in Western media that he was born in 2004 as a result of an extra-marital affair between the president and his personal doctor. 
  
 Whatever the circumstances of his birth, Kolya has certainly received special attention in recent years - attending numerous world events and meeting global leaders.

 By Andrei Makhovsky 
  
 MINSK Oct 11 (Reuters) - Belarussian President Alexander Lukashenko won a fifth term in office by a landslide on Sunday in an election that could see an easing of relations with the West and raise questions about his ties to Vladimir Putin's Russia. 
  
 Lukashenko's re-election five years ago led to mass protests and the imprisonment of leading opposition figures, but support for his 20-year-old regime has risen since he cast himself as a guarantor of stability in the face of an economic crisis and a pro-Russian separatist conflict in neighbouring Ukraine. 
  
 The West has long ostracised Lukashenko's Belarus, described in 2005 by U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice as "Europe's last dictatorship", over its human rights record and clamp-down on political dissent. It has imposed economic sanctions on some Belarussian officials and companies. 
  
 Nevertheless, his criticism of Russia's annexation of Ukraine's Crimea peninsula last year, his hosting of Ukraine peace talks and his pardoning of the six opposition leaders in August suggest he is seeking to improve his image in the West, observers say. 
  
 "We have carried out everything the West wanted on the eve of the elections. If there is a desire in the West to improve our relations, nobody and nothing can prevent that," Lukashenko said as he cast his vote. 
  
 "The ball is now firmly in the West's court," he said. 
  
 The central election commission said Lukashenko won 83.5 of the vote, slightly more than the 80 percent support registered in the 2010 elections, the head of the central election commission said in a briefing late on Sunday. 
  
 Around 6.5 percent voted against all candidates on the ballot, according to the commission. 
  
 TIES WITH RUSSIA 
  
 Relations with former Soviet master Moscow have shown some signs of strain. In September, President Vladimir Putin approved a plan to build an airbase in Belarus, but early this month Lukashenko said his country had no need for such a base, appearing to bow to public protests on the eve of the election. 
  
 The European Union will lift its sanctions on Belarus, including those on Lukashenko, for four months after Sunday's vote, barring any last-minute crackdown, diplomatic sources said on Friday. 
  
 Previous elections in Belarus were considered unfair by Western observers and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), which is monitoring Sunday's vote, said in September the ballot represented a "pivotal moment" for Belarus to demonstrate a willingness to hold free and fair elections. 
  
 The OSCE will present a report on their election monitoring on Monday, after which Brussels will release a formal statement, an EU spokesman said. 
  
 The lifting of EU sanctions would be welcome to Belarus, whose economy has been battered this year by a slump in the currency of Russia, a key trading partner and source of remittances from migrant workers. 
  
 None of the three candidates running against Lukashenko in Sunday's poll represent a serious challenge to his rule and opposition figures have called for a boycott of the election. 
  
 "Lukashenko and his system is a dead-end. There is no choice, but there is the choice not to be a sheep," said Anatoly Lebedko, a leading opposition figure at an anti-government rally on Saturday that attracted a crowd in the low hundreds. 
  
 Some of those who voted on Sunday did not express much faith in the political process. "I voted because it is the duty of every citizen ... What good is there in this country? They spin their lies and we pretend that we believe them," 68-year-old pensioner Alexander said, declining to give his last name. 
  
 While the president has been making some conciliatory gestures towards the opposition in recent months, it is unlikely the regime will become more welcoming of political dissent while Lukashenko remains in power. (Reporting by Alessandra Prentice; Editing by Phil Berlowitz) ||||| For 21 years, Alexander Lukashenko has ruled Belarus with an iron fist , jailing opponents, crushing opposition marches, and, many believe, sanctioning the murder of rivals. 
  
 Now, he appears to be laying plans to turn his authoritarian regime into a North Korean -style dynasty, with his 11-year old son Nikolai as his chosen heir. 
  
 "Dynastic succession is a long-term possibility. But Kolya is also very young, and that is very deliberate: it sends the message; ‘I may be grooming my son for power, but you won’t be rid of me anytime soon" 
  
 As he cast his ballot in Belarus’s presidential elections on Sunday, the man known as Europe’s last dictator was accompanied not by his estranged wife, or even one of his rumoured mistresses, but a small blonde boy in blue suit. 
  
 The grooming of “Kolya,” as he is popularly known, began in 2008, when the four-year old child appeared alongside his father in military uniform to review an annual Independence Day parade in Minsk. 
  
 Since then he has emerged as Belarus’ president-in-waiting, accompanying his father on high-level diplomatic missions where foreign leaders have been obliged to treat the young boy as an official guest. 
  
 By the time he was seven years old, he had met Pope Benedict XVI, the former president of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez, and the then-president of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev, who gave him a golden pistol. 
  
 He has presided over military parades in a replica of his father’s own uniform, and been photographed around major military exercises with the golden sidearm in the belt of his camouflage uniform. 
  
 When Kolya he high-fived Hugo Chavez in 2012, his suit jacket slipped back to reveal a holstered pistol on his belt. 
  
 Mr Lukashenko has refused to reveal the identity of Nikolai’s mother, but he is widely believed to be the son of Irina Abelskaya, the president’s former personal doctor and at least his second mistress since becoming president. 
  
 Mr Lukashenko also has two adult sons by his estranged wife. 
  
 It is a promotion of dynastic heritage that has drawn a mixture of disgust and pity from the country’s embattled opposition. 
  
 “When I see this young kid being used to humiliate foreign leaders, I just feel sorry for him,” said Andrei Sannikov, a former opposition presidential candidate now living in exile. “I don’t understand why they put up with it.” 
  
 The Belarussian constitution sets 35 as the minimum age for a president, meaning Mr Lukashenko would have to serve another 25 years to ensure the succession. 
  
 “Dynastic succession is a long-term possibility. But Kolya is also very young, and that is very deliberate: it sends the message; ‘I may be grooming my son for power, but you won’t be rid of me anytime soon,” said Andrew Wilson, a senior policy fellow at the European Council for Foreign Relations and an expert on post-Soviet politics. 
  
 Last week, Nikolai accompanied his father to represent Belarus at the United Nation’s General Assembly. The Belorussian government even released a photograph of him alongside Barack and Michelle Obama during that trip. 
  
 Mr Lukashenko faced little difficulty in winning Sunday’s presidential election, despite a boycott of the vote by the opposition that was vocally supported by Nobel Prize-winning author Svetlana Alexeivich. 
  
 “This time is a really shameless fraud,” said Mr Sannikov, who ran as an opposition candidate in 2010, but was beaten up and jailed for 16 months the evening after the election. 
  
 Two candidates, Sergei Gaidukevich of the Liberal Democratic Party and Nikolai Ulakhovich, of the Belarussian Patriotic Party, have openly supported Mr Lukashenko and effectively act as spoiler candidates. 
  
 Tatsiana Karatkevich, a member of the “speak truth” movement, has positioned herself as a moderate face of the opposition, prepared to work with elements within the regime for reform. Many veteran opposition leaders, including Mr Sannikov, have criticised that position as effectively collaborating with Mr Lukashenko’s regime. 
  
 European foreign ministers have said they will temporarily lift sanctions against Belarus on Monday, provided Sunday’s vote passes without incident. 
  
 Exit polls released after voting needed on Sunday evening saw Mr Lukashenko heading for a landslide victory with over 80 per cent of the vote. 
  
 The Belarussian Academy of Sciences' Insitute of Sociology predicted Mr Lukashenko would receive 82.9 per cent of the vote. 
  
 “There are dictators a bit worse than me, no? I’m the lesser evil already” Alexander Lukashenko 
  
 A rival poll by the Eurasian Barometer Institute saw Mr Lukashenko on 80.3 per cent, while Ms Korotkevich in second place with 5.6 percent of the vote, Mr Gaidukevich with 5.1 and Mr Ulakhovich on 1.9 percent. 
  
 A small crowd of opposition demonstrators gathered in central Minsk to protest against what they saw as an effectively rigged vote on Sunday evening. 
  
 The offer appears to be partly a reward for releasing six political prisoners in August, as well as Mr Lukashenko’s role in hosting peace talks to to resolve the confrontation between Russia and Ukraine 
  
 Mr Sannikov called the decision “disappointing." He put it down to business interests lobbying for access to Belarussian markets, and Minsk leveraging the confrontation between Russia and the West over Ukraine to overcome international isolation. 
  
 In April, Mr Lukashenko openly joked that he was “not Europe’s last dictator anymore". 
  
 “There are dictators a bit worse than me, no? I’m the lesser evil already,” he said in an interview, in an apparent reference to Vladimir Putin. 
  
 He recently rejected Russian demands to build an airbase in Belarus, a move that will reassure Western security officials worried about the Kremlin’s military plans in eastern Europe. 
  
 “Mr Lukashenko has long used these pendulum tactics. One day he is the best friend of Putin, the next day he is the best friend of Brussels. But at the end of the day it comes down to him needing money,” said Mr Sannikov, speaking by phone from Warsaw. 
  
 Prof Wilson added: “It’s a matter of realpolitik, not human rights. The fact is the region is a god awful mess and suddenly Belarus’ strategic position is much more important." |||||
Output:
The man critics call "Europe's last dictator" has his own "Mini-Me," and the people of Belarus suspect he's being groomed for power. Nikolai, the 11-year-old son of Alexander Lukashenko, often appears alongside his father in military uniform and accompanies the leader around the world to meet foreign leaders, including President Obama at the UN General Assembly last month, the Telegraph reports. The boy, who has been appearing in public with Lukashenko since he was 4, is the youngest of the leader's three sons and it isn't clear who his mother is, though she's rumored to be a personal doctor who became one of Lukashenko's mistresses. The BBC notes that Lukashenko has previously dismissed talk of political grooming, explaining his son's constant presence by saying that Nikolai is so devoted to him that the boy can't sleep when he's away. But Minsk-watchers would not be surprised if a North Korea-style succession is in the works. "Dynastic succession is a long-term possibility," a senior policy fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations tells the Telegraph. "Kolya [the boy's nickname] is also very young, and that is very deliberate: It sends the message, 'I may be grooming my son for power, but you won't be rid of me anytime soon." In widely criticized elections held on Sunday, Lukashenko won a fifth term with 83.5% of the vote, Reuters reports. Two of the three other candidates on the ballot were pro-Lukashenko, the BBC notes.
