The United States partially lifted sanctions on Belarusian state structures after the release of political prisoners by the regime of Alexander Lukashenko.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This was reported<\/a> by the US Treasury Department.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Office for Foreign Assets Control has removed the company “Belaruskaliy”, the Belarusian Potash Company, and LLC “Agrorozkvit” from the sanctions list.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In addition, the American side allowed transactions with Belinvestbank and its subsidiaries, and also lifted restrictions on the Ministry of Finance of Belarus and the Development Bank.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The potash industry is key to the Belarusian economy, as fertilizers remain one of the country’s main export commodities.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

After the introduction of sanctions in 2021, Minsk reoriented its potassium exports through Russia, which increased economic dependence on the Kremlin.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to the American side, the basis for easing sanctions was the release of about 250 political prisoners.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As previously reported, the Lithuanian<\/span> parliament<\/span> has supported<\/span> the extension<\/span> of national<\/span> sanctions<\/span> against<\/span> Russia<\/span> and<\/span> Belarus.<\/span> The restrictions<\/span> will be in effect<\/span> until<\/span> the end<\/span> of 2027<\/span> .<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As a reminder, Ukraine is strengthening the border line with Belarus so that the soldiers of the Defense Forces can counter it in the event of a threat.<\/a> <\/p>\n
