On May 23, Belarusian dispatchers falsely informed the crew of a Ryanair plane flying from Athens to Vilnius that there was an explosive on the passenger liner. Roman Protasevičius, a freelance Belarusian journalist, and his girlfriend Sofia Sapega were arrested while the plane was landing in Minsk.
In response to the forced landing of the aircraft, the Community agreed to extend the sanctions to Belarus, not only to individual natural or legal persons, but also to individual sectors.
Next week, the EU intends to consider new sanctions against Belarus, which could target both ministers and representatives of the Belarusian Air Force leaders. Sanctions can also be imposed on an organization, as quoted by the BNS news agency, Bloomberg.
