Ministry Of Information Declares Noninvolvement In Blocking BNC’s Website

Ministry Of Information Declares Noninvolvement In Blocking BNC’s Website

The official reply of the Ministry of Information came only after a repeated enquiry.

The BNC press-center finally received a reply to their enquiry to the Ministry of Information.

According to Deputy Minister of Information Uladzimir Rabavolau, his office has nothing to do with the blocking of access to the website bnknews.org. This is stated in the letter received by the press-center of the Belarusian National Congress:

— Having considered the enquiry of the Belarusian National Congress, we inform herewith that the Ministry of Information took no decision to limit the access to the informational resource bnknews.org.

The official reply of the Ministry of Information came only after a repeated written enquiry, made in early July.

Important to note, the access to the BNC website at the territory of Belarus has been restricted since mid-June. Previously, the state communications monopolist Beltelecom refused to provide information about the reasons for blocking the resource. An employee of the organization Alina Barysava commented on a post in a community on vk.com social network, that “the press-center can only comment the situation under a written enquiry filed by the media”, but there was no reply to the written request nevertheless.

Despite the blocking, the website can be reached via anonymizers and some browsers.
