EU extends "arms" sanctions against Belarus

In the European Union today, the question of continuing actions to lift the sanctions against Belarus was considered. Recall that over the past few months, a number of sanctions have been lifted, including some restrictive measures that have been in effect for years against the top leadership of the republic. This time, the EU considered the possibility of lifting the arms embargo on Belarus and the lifting of sanctions imposed earlier against Belarusian officials. However, by a majority vote of the embargo, it was decided to extend for another year, like the other sanctions considered.

From the message press service European Council:

27 February 2017, the Council decided to extend the restrictive measures against Belarus for one year until February 28 2018. These measures include an embargo on supplies weapons, asset freeze and travel ban on individuals involved in the disappearance of two opposition politicians, one businessman and one journalist in 1999 and 2000.

It was noted that the arms embargo will not affect the possible supply of biathlon rifles to Belarus.

At the same time, the Belarusian leadership in the European Council called for “respect for universal freedoms and the rule of law”. Here are just what “universal freedoms” and what particular “right” is being discussed, the document does not say. Nor is it said how Minsk was eager and had the opportunity to buy weapons from Europe.

Belarus under EU sanctions since 1996. However, this does not prevent the vast majority of European countries stupidly envy Belarusian industry

[klas000000]

Due to free oil, what is the economy not to grow? And Belarusian seafood also did not stand aside

[kirgiz58]

And that our oil of our industry is not free? Why aren't we developing like this? There is no need here for propaganda cliches thrown by those who justify their inaction. And at the expense of Belarusian seafood - so Moscow is not a seaside town, but produces canned food from sea fish from the mountains. I'd rather take Belarusian milk with a taste of milk than Wimbildanovskaya with a taste of oil.

To develop the Belarusian tractor industry, we in Russia completely ruined our own !!! This is the price of prosperity of Belarus as an industrial country ... Now we will stop buying Belarusian tractors and combines and what will Lukashenko do? MAZ is already operating at a loss, we will close our market Belarus’s entire industry will be blown away instantly ... For me it’s necessary to switch to market calculations for resources both within the country and between countries within the framework of the Customs Union ... Stop feeding Lukashenko ...

[Arh]

Yes, Belarusians, you understand this, you are not the only ones !!!

[Warlock]

It's funny Do you seriously think that Belarus is dumping tractors all over Russia with tractors? This was not even in the USSR. And all the “effective” handshops with the right names were ruined in the Russian Federation, and we have to “thank” them for this. And until you restore what you will plow, you yourself will harness yourself (horses are few, times are not the same)?
About MAZ complete stupidity. Can the Russian Federation itself provide itself with trucks at 100%? In your opinion, it is necessary to close everything for Belarus, and buy trucks where you wake up - in the hated Geyrop, the unspiritual USA, from the cunning Chinese or Japanese with claims to the Kuril Islands? Or to carry cargo on hump?
Funny you breadwinners.

[vasek5533]

You will not believe, but Lukashenko only speaks about this. For some reason, everyone thinks that he is asking for cheap oil and gas, and he is asking for only the same price. Somehow it's so strange that you have several prices. The funny thing is that yours is also talking about different prices, that this is not normal, but they are going to level them only in some twenty year, or better never.

[Kostya Andreev]

give the Baltic market a market such as that of Belarus. namely Russia with 145 million people, permanent loans, then there will be prosperity.
this graphic can be shown under the comment "there is a lie, there is a big lie. but there are statistics!"
The population of the Republic of Belarus is 10 million people, several million of them work in the Russian Federation, the products of the Republic of Belarus are in demand only in the Russian Federation, and this is only due to the fact that they enjoy the support of the Russian government. for example, in order to please the Old Man, they killed the Lipetsk Tractor Plant, or because of the Belarusian sausages moved our producers, and so on and so forth.
Have you ever wondered how it turns out that products from Belarus brought over 1000 km are the same price as local producers?
The economy of Belarus without constant free money is the end. Uncompetitively capable production that cannot produce modern products !!

Have you ever wondered why a bedroom set in Belarus costs 10-12 tyr., And we have a bed from this headset costs 18 tyr.?

Quote: Kostya Andreev

for example, for the sake of the Old Man, the Lipetsk Tractor Plant was killed

And for the sake of whom they destroyed the rest of the industry? other than mining? Ahhh! Well yes! To please the Chinese!
And further! When the USSR was repeatedly heard the words of representatives of different republics; "Tired of feeding Moscow." They stopped feeding her, and they themselves didn’t eat. No matter how we puncture this.

[Kostya Andreev]

make a bedroom set and sell it even cheaper. or even simpler: buy and sell these headsets at a fair price, the one you need. otherwise you give only advice.
And about the difference in price, this is for the brothers Belarusians. who know that in Russia there is money and therefore you can cheat prices !!!
Regarding Chinese goods, Chinese goods are therefore cheap and in demand. Therefore, not for the sake of the Chinese, but because they would buy a domestic one, they buy Chinese cheaper!
surprised by people such as you who sit indicate what to do, but they themselves do nothing. Is it weak to open production? and show how to set the price, and what product to produce!

Our traders wind up prices and I talked about this.

But on this I “precipitated”, go learn lessons better, and ask Russian teachers to parse this sentence. Do not distort the language.

[Kostya Andreev]

Thanks for the advice. And what prevents you from trading and selling at a fair price? Our traders are bad, and what Belarusian?
You do not have to do the sediment, but just ask what the price is and why the Chinese produce cheaper. For example, Interskol products made in China will be cheaper than those made in the Russian Federation. Or resanta Latvian made in China will be cheaper than made in the EU.

Traders are all bad. I gave an example of prices "from the manufacturer" and "from the traders." I do not trade in the power of upbringing and other mentality (not in the sense of placing where the mind is stored ), my hands under the bolts and nuts are sharpened.

I think the leadership of Belarus should look towards Ukraine - this is their (Belarusians) future. Is such a problem for such leaders with elementary analysis? the West needs you all as irritants of Russia (sort of bugs). and financial infusions from the outside will annoy Russia as long as you. as soon as Russia ceases to be very annoyed about you (and this will happen rather quickly), you will immediately be thrown to the "margin of history." as a result, Belarus has neither cheap energy from Russia (read free oil) and other preferences, nor a pan-European market (because there is good competition even without you).

Putin managed to fuss about it? .... how to live on?

[Ivan Ivanov]

Like a signal to break relations further?

[Alex_Tug]

the arms embargo will not affect the possible supplies of biathlon rifles to the Republic of Belarus.

Lukashenko may rejoice, he may go broke on 100 rifles for biathlon. Purely, is there a ban on the supply of biathlon rifles to Russia? Just wondering.

Yes, no, most likely, who will impose sanctions on such trifles.

[Alex_Tug]

About biathlon rifles was written back in TM. Optoelectronic pair so that when you pull the trigger do not shake the rifle. The beam is blocked between the source and the receiver. (the extra weight of course is the battery).

[Gormenghast]

And Lukashenko tried so hard, and even climbed out of his skin.

There is no money, no oil, no gas; "solvents" are over; shrimp, oysters and kiwi are not allowed into Russia; loans were suddenly unavailable; customs officers jump across borders (and even FSB officers at times ) Dankvert does not go to the Minsk pre-trial detention center for demonstrative placement; it’s not possible to catch someone like Baumgartner GUARD!!

The priorities of the Old Man have changed. Now all of Belarus, from small to large, is tracking Gormengast. Have you met?

[Gormenghast]

I am for honesty. Here the Baltic States receive money for free from the EU. And the Baltic states meekly extends the sanctions invented by Merkel. This is fair (for them).

Belarus receives money from Russia. Even for the sale of diesel fuel, produced from Russian oil, to the enemies of Ukraine, for the ATO - they closed their eyes. But why doesn’t Lukashenko recognize Abkhazia, Ossetia and Crimea? Why does he have three opinions in two statements about the Nazi coup in Kiev? Where's the justice?

[vasek5533]

Here the Baltic States receive money for free from the EU. = meekly prolongs the sanctions invented by Merkel.
Belarus receives money from Russia. - loans = do not recognize when it will be just like in the Baltic states, then it will be meekly acknowledging. And then we compared different situations and want the same result. Where's the justice? )))

[Lynch]

Lukashenko tried so hard, and even climbed out of his skin.

Do not say, only spoiled relations with the Russian Federation, and received nothing in return.

Where's the justice?

He either blames Putin for allegedly “climbing” to the country in 2014, or “national bats” for his fighters for independence.

But why

I completely agree, if you take money from Russia, then you need to work out.

[Mountain shooter]

And the fact that Minsk does not comply with the "Minsk Agreement" was not there? Imperfection!

[asadov]

Again, the Old Man calculated something wrong in his actions ....... It's time to change the position by 180 degrees. It's time to come up with loving speeches for Russia.

[Lex.]

Do not write nonsense Old man bought a couple of machine guns in 10 years in Germany and everything that he will buy there can planes, tanks?
But Kazakhstan often buys weapons and, like Armenia, Crimea did not recognize Russia as Ossetia and Abkhazia, so why are such attacks in the direction of the Old Man

[Franciscan]

Because against the backdrop of Balarusi look wretched with their aligarchs and Putin, that envy stifles.

[antikilller55]

I don’t think that this upset the Belarusians very much.

And we do not need to have the Kazakhs also come under various embargoes, through them you can also gain something. The time will come and Crimea will be recognized by all, well, except that Ukropiya will rest, and even if it survives in its current form, that is unlikely to happen. So we wait until the padishah dies - we have nothing to hurry in this matter!
