The French presidency of the EU confirmed that EU diplomats have adopted new sanctions against Belarus and the blow will be on the economy.
“The sanctions will also hit some economic sectors, and in particular timber, steel and potassium.“, It is said in the statement.
An EU official said this week that one of the goals of the new sanctions against Minsk was to ban exports of any other Belarusian goods to the EU.
