Young Front (Belarusian: Малады Фронт, romanized: Malady Front, МФ, MF) is a Belarusian youth movement registered in the Czech Republic, a member of the European Democrat Students. As of 2012[update], it is the largest[1][2][3][4] youth organisation of Belarus declaring democratic orientation; a pro-Western, right-wing movement advocating Christian and national-conservative values, being due to it in permanent resolute opposition to the personal power regime of Alexander Lukashenko. In 2022, the Belarusian authorities designated the organization as an extremist formation, with the effect that participation in Young Front is a criminal offence under Belarusian law.[5]
