West should increase pressure on Russia for actions in Belarus

Also, according to her, it is extremely important for Ukraine and all of Europe that Belarus remains an independent and independent financial system, as well as further integration with the Russian Federation does not lead to the emergence of new threats and threats on the borders of Ukraine and the European Union.
In her speech, Dzhaparova stressed that Ukraine seeks to achieve good-neighborly relations with the Republic of Belarus as an independent, sovereign and prosperous country, in which democratic values are upheld and fundamental freedoms are respected.
“Unfortunately, today Belarus is increasingly moving away from this goal,” Dzhaparova noted.
According to her, “within the framework of the policy of all-round absorption and deprivation of Belarus’s sovereignty, the“ Anschluss ”of Belarus is actually taking place and is turning it into a new base for destabilizing the security situation in Europe.”
Dzhaparova paid particular attention to the ongoing human rights violations and the campaign of political repression in Belarus, which are only growing.
“To say that we are alarmed is to say nothing,” she said. “Citizens of Ukraine have also become victims of these repressions. We will continue our efforts to free our illegally detained compatriots and protect their rights. “
