Foreign Ministry Spokesman: Unilateral sanctions in foreign policy are counterproductive

25 октября 2018

Unilateral sanctions in foreign policy are counterproductive. That is the comment of the press secretary of the Foreign Ministry of Belarus on the extension of the suspension of the ban against 9 Belarusian enterprises. Anatoly Glaz notes that such a regime in relation to enterprises was extended not for 6 months, as it has been done so far, but for a year.

The US Treasury extended the permit to conduct transactions with Belarusian enterprises that fell under sanctions in accordance with a decree of the head of the White House. This decision will be valid for exactly one year.
