This is the second protest by the sanatorium workers, the first of which took place on January 12.

“For the second month in a row, the employees of the” Belorus “sanatorium live in uncertainty about their future, and 35 families wake up anxious every day knowing that the electricity and heating can be disconnected at any time, and will have to go out to the street with minors. “Saruckis.

According to him, the institution has not been given any legal document on the validity of the application of sanctions.

The case of Belarus is the first in Lithuania’s history in which international sanctions are applied to an institution operating in the country. Following his request, Swedbank froze the sanitarium accounts in mid-December.

According to the Records Center, the Belorus sanatorium belongs to the Board of Presidential Affairs of Belarus and is directly subordinate to Aliaksandr Lukashenko.

At the end of 2020, the EU imposed sanctions on the General Economic Board (GHU), which reports directly to the Belarusian Presidential Affairs Board.
