"Madam President, Baroness Ashton, Ms Andrikienė has already spoken about the situation in Belarus. It is indeed deteriorating, not only in relation to death sentences, but also to trials of human rights activists and suspicions over the use of torture against former presidential candidates. I know that you and the ministers for foreign affairs are aware of this, because on 23 January you decided to extend the legal grounds for new sanctions for Belarus. At the same time, however, despite the fact that visa sanctions have been imposed on the Belarusian Minister for Internal Affairs, he was able to travel to France, attend an Interpol conference in Lyons and return safely to Minsk. On the other hand, despite the economic sanctions, the whole of 2011 was a year of growing trade between the European Union’s Member States and Belarus. How do you evaluate the effectiveness of the current sanctions, and do you see the possibility of introducing effective sanctions which will hold the Belarusian regime back from further repression?"@en1
