January 28, Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong> The Irish government has made clear its position on the importance of strengthening sanctions against Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka and his officials, Pavie\u0142 \u0141atu\u0161ka of the opposition transition cabinet has said on Telegram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a response letter to the Belarusian opposition, Irish Foreign Minister Miche\u00e1l Martin reportedly promised support for tough measures against \u0141uka\u0161enka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ireland will continue working with its European Union’s partners to help build a future democratic Belarus, \u0141atu\u0161ka cited Martin’s letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, 233 individuals and 37 legal entities from Belarus are under the EU sanctions, he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the last few years, democratic countries have imposed multiple restrictions on Belarus over human rights abuses, alleged vote rigging in the 2020 presidential election, a brutal crackdown on protesters, the forced landing of a Ryanair flight, a migration crisis at the European Union border, as well as support of Russia’s war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The EU adopted eight sanctions packages against Minsk. Belarusian pro-democracy forces support sanctions and have repeatedly called on the international community and Western allies to increase pressure on \u0141uka\u0161enka.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
