Britain banned the export of banknotes to Belarus

In addition to banknotes, Britain also banned the EXPORT of industrial equipment and dual-use goods to Belarus. There is also a banfor the import of Belarusian gold, cement,wood and rubber

London's new package of sanctions against MINSK includes a ban on the export of banknotes, industrial equipment, dual-use goods and technologies. In addition, a ban is being introduced on the import of gold, cement, timber and rubber from Belarus, the British Foreign Office said.

“This new package increases the economic pressure on [Belarusian President Alexander] Lukashenko and his regime, which is actively facilitating the Russian war effort and ignoring the territorial integrity of Ukraine,” British Foreign Secretary James Cleverley said in a statement ( quoted by REUTERS ) .

After the outbreak of hostilities in Ukraine , a number of countries imposed sanctions not only against RUSSIA, but also against Belarus, explaining this by the fact that Minsk supports Moscow in the conflict.

Lukashenka has repeatedly assured that the Belarusian army does not take part in the Russian military operation, and ruled out an attack from Minsk. At the same time, in early October last year, he said that Belarus was taking part in the Russian military operation in Ukraine, but was not sending its military to the combat zone. “We don't kill anyone. We don't send our military anywhere. We do not violate our obligations,” the Belarusian president said.

According to Lukashenka, the goal of Minsk is to prevent the spread of the armed conflict to Belarus and to prevent a strike on its territory "under the guise of a special military operation from Poland, Lithuania and Latvia."

In addition, at the end of March, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that Moscow would deploy its tactical nuclear weapons (TNW) in Belarus. He stressed that we are not talking about the transfer of tactical nuclear weapons to Minsk. The United States , European Union and Great Britain condemned this decision.
