Both diplomats - Leszek Szerepka and Maira Mora have been called today to the ministry headquarters.

At the same time Belarussian ambassador in Warsaw and the Permanent Representative of Belarus to the European Union have been summoned for consultations to Minsk.

Belarus reacted this way to the EU sanctions imposed on the Alexander Lukashenka's regime. Foreign Ministry in Minsk announced that in the case of the further “pressure on the Republic of Belarus, it will take other measures to defend its interests."

The European Union today approved the decision to impose further sanctions on Minsk, because of the repressions against the civil society and democratic forces in Belarus.
