lpv:translated text	"Freedom of media and freedom of expression are among the main pillars of democracy. I deeply regret that these freedoms are limited in Belarus by the legislation and in practice. The case of Andrzej Poczobut illustrates how the authoritarian government of Belarus transforms fundamental human rights into an instrument of domestic political pressure and a tool of international influence. I reiterate that international and Belarusian activists and journalists, as well as ordinary Belarusian citizens, become victims of the Belarusian-controlled judiciary system and do not have the right to a fair trial. The European Parliament calls on the Belarusian authorities to respect their international commitments, to respect human rights and democratic principles. The repressions against civil society and political opposition have to be stopped. Free and fair parliamentary elections this autumn could be the ideal opportunity for the Belarusian Government to show its goodwill to move towards EU standards."@en1
