The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Foreign Ministry) of Belarus responded to new sanctions introduced against the republic, and promised asymmetric response to them. About it reports BelTA.
MFA argues that the “absurd depth” of the decision of the European Union to impose sanctions with difficulty is to understand. Open demonization continues, while the true causes of the migration crisis are brazenly ignored, Minsk believes.
“The goal of all this policy is to economically suffer Belarus, to complicate and worsen the life of Belarusians as much as possible and worsen the life of Belarusians. Highly stupid stupidity, which are distributed from the European Tribune, in this case have nothing to do with the reality,” the statement said.
Foreign Ministry adds that the European Union “remains deaf to circulation of millions of Belarusian workers requiring the abolition of these barbaric and anti-human measures.” “The package includes Belarusian enterprises that have nothing to do with the migration crisis. The desire is hidden to get rid of competitors,” the diplomats are assured.
Minsk believes that the pressure will be continued in blind rage from the lack of result. “Essentially, as an answer, we have been stated earlier, rigid, asymmetric, but adequate measures will be adopted, – promised to the ministry and called on European politicians to drag.
Earlier, the EU adopted the fifth package of sanctions against Belarus due to the situation with migrants on the Polish-Belarusian border. The blacklist includes more than 25 individuals and legal entities, including the Belavia airline and Grodno Nitrogen and BelarusNeft enterprises.
The sanctions also introduced the United States and Britain.
