President of Supreme Court of Belarus calls EU's sanctions blackmailing

Valyantsin Sukala also said that these sanctions are interference into the national court system.

He was speaking about prohibition to enter the European Union's countries for some Belarusian judges, reports interfax.by. According to Sukala, the sanctions are unacceptable from the point of view of the international standards of justice. He reminded about the international legal agreements which prohibit to use sanctions against judges who perform their professional duties.

Let us remind you, the European Union's visa sanctions concern more than 200 Belarusian officials, including judges and public prosecutors.
