Live text broadcast – short and concise about the most important things in the Ukrainian war on April 11. Ukraine has been heroically defending its land against the aggressor’s invasion for a whole year.
00:10 At the beginning of January, the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, announced sanctions against Belarus, but since then there has been no progress in this direction.
According to the state-run Polish Press Agency (PAP), EU sanctions against Belarus are blocking some Western European countries that want to lift previously imposed restrictions on the potash used in Belarus’ fertilizer production.
Poland and the Baltic states do not agree to any easing of restrictions. Warsaw also calls for the immediate synchronization of sanctions against the Republic of Belarus and the Russian Federation. In particular, this will include a ban on the export of cars from the EU to Belarus and the import of Belarusian furniture. Against this background, Sweden, currently holding the EU presidency, is accused of not wanting to find a quick compromise.
