As, said by Valiantsin Lazarenkau, head of the Brest branch of the Free Trade Union, the picket, planned on 7 October – the World Day of defending the right for decent work, was prohibited by the city executive committee. The reason is that the applicants hadn't concluded agreements with the communal services, police and doctors, as prescribed by the executive committee's decisions.

There are no people in the allowed places for pickets in Brest, there's no need to protect public order among the trees or at the empty stadium, and there's also no trash, says Mr. Lazarenkau. The Trade Union agrees to pay for the rendered services, but the city executive committee insists on pre-payment.
