The sanctions also targeted 20 entities and 16 individuals mainly associated with Russian capital. <\/p>\n<p> The Polish interior ministry said the sanctions were aimed at people who promoted, supported or legitimized the regime\u2019s policies, as well as those who tortured, intimidated or discriminated against the Polish minority and other Belarusians. <\/p>\n<p> The measures include entry bans and asset freezes for all deputies of the Belarusian parliament, judges, prosecutors, propaganda figures, local officials, law-enforcement officers, athletes, cultural workers and others. The sanctions list has not been published yet.<\/p>\n<p>The EU itself imposed wide scale sanctions on Belarus for its crackdown on dissent and its role in the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
