"The Sanctions Decision-Making Procedure Against Lukashenka Gains Strength"

Spells of the Russian authorities will not be able to influence the sanctions policy of the West.

Sanctions against the financial sector are an additional bonus that the Belarusian authorities have gained, writes Letters to Daughter Telegram Channel:

- Yesterday, Peskov said the talks between Biden and Putin had failed to constructively converge on the Belarusian issue. Of course, there were many different interpretations of everything that had been said about us. But if you interpret these words from the diplomatic to the normal language, it means a simple thing. It means that the Moscow accusation: "This is our sheep, and we are going to mow it ourselves" did not work.

Or in common language: the USA didn't want to recognize Belarus as a zone of exclusively Russian interests, which Russia can develop in accordance with its ideas about beauty. It is unlikely that the Kremlin guys would agree to recognize any other option as constructive.

I guess some rapprochement could appear before the aircraft story. I doubt we like it. After all, our notions of beauty differ from those of the cool dudes from the Kremlin.

However, after the aircraft story, even the blind have already noticed that a completely different creature hides under the skin of the lamb. No one wants to leave this creature in private with Putin. Because if they are left one-on-one, then who knows what will happen.

On the contrary, many people want to take part in skinning him. Preferably, quickly. So the sanctions decision-making procedure seems to gain strength. Now, the new EU sanctions are being discussed on June 21-24. Judging by some of the hints made after the Biden-Putin meeting, new sanctions from the U.S. will follow at about the same time. The verbal interventions of the Russian authorities will have nearly the same effect on the sanctions policy as the Belarusian spells of stability.
