Not anymore. The US and EU have an agreement to look through the Swiss banks' books as if it was a domestic bank.

If you want to hide your money you have to put it in a Chinese or Russian bank, but those have their own issues...

That's more like a revolutionary group. They are trying to overthrow their own government.

Partisans tend to be more about citizens fighting back against a foreign army that is on their soil.

Partisans are historically defined as locals under occupation that sabotage the occupying force.

Think of like, the French Resistance fighting back against the Nazi's in occupied France in WW2. Or even the Taliban fighting the Americans in Afghanistan, those would technically be partisans because they are locals fighting a foreign army occupying their land.

Anyway, you are correct that this Belarus group probably shouldn't be called partisans. Belarus is not at war.
