The European Union has imposed extensive economic sanctions on Belarus in connection with its role in the military aggression against Ukraine.
"Belarus's involvement in unprovoked and unjustified military aggression will come at a high price," Josep Borrell, EU chief of diplomacy, said.
Sanctions also apply to 22 high-ranking militaries "because of their role in decision-making and strategic planning" that led to the Russian invasion.
Concerning Belarus, the EU has introduced further restrictions on trade in goods used to manufacture or manufacture tobacco products, mineral fuels, bituminous substances, gaseous hydrocarbon products, potassium chloride products, wood products, cement products, iron, steel, and rubber products.
