US Slaps New Sanctions on Belarus for Backing Russia 🇺🇸🚫

[Tanjiro.Kamado]

On Friday, the U.S. imposed sanctions on 19 individuals, 14 entities, and one aircraft in Belarus for supporting Moscow's war in Ukraine, including those involved in military resource production and sanctions evasion. The sanctions, part of an executive order from President Biden in 2021, also target revenue sources for President Lukashenko's inner circle. Notably, Belarusian firm Peleng, which supplies components for military and space technologies, is among those sanctioned. Canada and Britain joined the U.S. in this action, with Canada targeting individuals and entities linked to human rights abuses in Belarus, and Britain marking the fourth anniversary of the disputed 2020 presidential elections that led to widespread protests and repression.

Wow, the U.S., Canada, and Britain really came together on this—interesting to see such coordinated action against Belarusian support for the war and human rights abuses. Appreciate the detailed update!
