EU extends economic sanctions to Belarus Restrictive measures target trade, services, transport

Brussels has announced the extension of certain economic sanctions to Belarus, aligning them with measures previously imposed on Russia.

New EU restrictive measures target trade, services, transport and anti-circumvention, which was confirmed by the EU Council, Caliber.Az reports.

The EU's move targets the high degree of economic integration between Belarus and Russia, aiming to address concerns over the potential for sanctions evasion.

The comprehensive measures are designed to close loopholes that could allow Belarus to bypass the restrictions imposed on Moscow.
