On August 11, the US toughened sanctions against Belarus.

The sanctions were introduced after an opposition’s meeting was dispersed in Belarus on December 19, 2010, the day of presidential elections.

In response to the recent toughening of sanctions, Belarus has declared that it was withdrawing from the joint Belorussian-US project of exchanging highly enriched nuclear fuel.

A representative of the Belorussian Foreign Ministry Andrey Savinykh has called US sanctions “groundless”. “They run counter to the world’s current trend for cooperation,” he said.

At the same time, Mr. Savinykh said that Belarus would still try to provide the security of nuclear fuel in accordance with international norms.
