It is regrettable that there is no change in the situation in Belarus. The European Parliament resolution states that the parliamentary elections in Belarus once again failed to meet many of the basic standards set by the OSCE, and were thus neither fair, free, nor transparent. As the new parliament in Belarus lacks democratic legitimacy, the European Parliament will continue its policy of not recognising it. At the same time, we need to further strengthen civil society in Belarus, including by continuing and strengthening funding for the European Humanities University (EHU) in Vilnius. This Belarusian university will mark its 20th anniversary this year. For seven of those years, in order to avoid persecution by Lukashenko’s regime, it has sought sanctuary in Lithuania and has been operating successfully there. The EHU is one of the most effective and successful projects funded by the EU and, in the absence of any possibility of EHU activities moving back to Minsk, the EU should also allocate funds in the new financial perspective to support this university’s work."@en1
