August 9,\u00a0Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong> M\u00e9lanie Joly, Canada\u2019s foreign minister, has announced sanctions<\/a> against 10 individuals, including Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka\u2019s son Mika\u0142aj, and six entities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The list of sanctioned individuals includes judges who, in blatant contravention of human rights obligations, have arbitrarily condemned and sentenced democracy defenders and regular citizens for expressing their opposition to the fraudulent elections of 2020, Joly said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The entities sanctioned \u2013 AAT KB Dysplej, the Minsk Research Institute of Instrument Engineering, the Research Institute of Electronic Computers, AAT P\u0142anar and AAT Homsielma\u0161 operate as part of the Belarusian defense industry and are involved in the production or repair of military equipment which enables Russia\u2019s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Canada has also sanctioned the Kaz\u0142o\u016d Minsk Electrotechnical Plant, a Belarusian state-owned enterprise which suppressed its employees\u2019 right to peaceful protest following the fraudulent elections of August 2020, intimidating and firing employees who joined peaceful protests and strikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThese measures, which are imposed in coordination with international partners including the European Union, the United Kingdom and the United States, are the latest example of Canada\u2019s ongoing efforts to exert further pressure on Belarusian authorities and to pursue accountability for those supporting Russian President Vladimir Putin\u2019s brutal war of aggression against Ukraine.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the same day, London sanctioned<\/a> four former and current commanders of penal colonies and three entities, while Washington imposed sanctions on 19 individuals, 14 entities and Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka\u2019s aircraft, a luxury Boeing 737.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
