"Madam President, escalating tensions between the European Union and Belarus have reached an unprecedented point, culminating in mutual withdrawal of ambassadors. I think that the fact that Belarus is a neighbouring country, as well as its importance within the Eastern Partnership, are reasons to seek a solution to this situation, and I believe we need to get the regime in Minsk to respect the fundamental rights of citizens and allow the establishment of democracy in the country. To achieve this, concrete progress should be made, such as the termination of persecutions against the opposition, the release of political prisoners, the organisation of free elections and an opening of Belarus to European values. Last but not least, we must consider the fact that Belarusian citizens, internationally isolated, are suffering once more, hardly coping with economic hardship, poverty, record inflation and a huge trade deficit."@en1
