Two Lithuanian representatives, Stasys Jakelin and Viktor Uspaskich, abstained last week in the European Parliament (EP) to vote on a resolution calling for support for the Belarusian opposition.
State spokesman Stasys Jakelin said he would not support the resolution due to overly aggressive rhetoric, although he stressed that he does not support either the Russian or the Belarusian regime.
Those things are too populist, and too aggressive unbalanced rhetoric can provoke both inappropriate actions from Belarus, but especially Russia, BNS commented on its decision.
It is not necessary that you do not support or support specific specific sanctions, I condemn both the Putin regime and the Lukashenko regime, but such statements, in my opinion, are more harmful than helping both the EU and Lithuania, says the Lithuanian representative in the PE.
Labor leader V. Uspaskich said that the resolution, in his opinion, had not been drafted in its entirety, which is shown by the results of the vote rather than abstaining.
The resolution needs to crystallize to be adopted and adopted by a common majority or by consensus, and now more than the measures taken are not supported, says the SNB V. Uspaskich.
The EP has already voted 574 votes in favor, 37 MEPs in favor and 82 abstentions on Thursday, saying that the presidential elections in Belarus were unfair and ignore the election of Alexander Lukashenko as president of Belarus at the end of his current term.
The resolution also calls for support for the Belarusian opposition, calls for sanctions against Lukashenko, the structure of his force, as well as against Russians who support the Belarusian regime.
The EP resolution condemns in the strongest terms the appalling acts of violence against peaceful and detained protesters, and the brutal repression and torture. The EP also calls for an independent and effective protest against the deaths of Aliaksandr Taraikouski, Aliaksandr Vichor, Arciom Parukov, Henadzy Utava and Kanstantin Ymakov.
For more than a month there have been unprecedented protests in Belarus over the presidential elections on August 9, which were declared the winners by Lukashenko, who has led the country since 1994. The opposition and the West consider these elections to be rigged.
