"Building up artificial barriers in transboundary specially protected natural territories: consequences and ways of solution" were discussed today in the House of Representatives. The installation of barriers and restrictions on the border with Belarus, including in the territory of the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Belovezhskaya Pushcha", is on the agenda.
Andrei Savinykh, Chairman of the Standing Committee on International Affairs of the House of Representatives:
"The Belarusian party has always treated its international obligations very responsibly. If we deal with any problems, be it protection of biodiversity or peace consolidation, we always do our best to ensure results. When we see behavior that clearly deviates from international principles, from the obligations that countries have undertaken within international treaties, we cannot remain silent. Today we are going to discuss this situation and express our principled opinion on this issue."
Representatives of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the National Park "Belovezhskaya Pushcha", the Scientific and Practical Center of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus on Bioresources take part in the event.
