"Mr President, like many others, I am very concerned about the deterioration of human rights, democracy and the rule of law in Belarus. There are reports of torture and inhumane prison conditions suffered by political prisoners who were detained after the presidential elections. Furthermore, we have to address the case of two young prisoners sentenced to death, whose detention, trial and sentencing were plagued by mistreatment, an unfair trial and torture allegations. The rights of a transparent appeal should be fully exercised. The EU must continue to support economic sanctions, a travel and EU asset freeze against Lukashenko and his cronies, as well as a demand by the European Parliament and US Senate resolutions to relocate the 2014 ice hockey world championships. These actions should help in the freeing of all political prisoners and improving democracy in Belarus."@en1
