Description
U.S. Lifts Potash Sanctions on Belarus, Despite Ongoing ConcernsThe U.S. has lifted sanctions on Belarusian potash, a crucial fertilizer ingredient, following discussions between President Trumps envoy, John Coale, and Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko. This move comes despite Lukashenkos repression of political prisoners and support for Russias war in Ukraine. Coale believes Lukashenkos ties with Russian President Putin could aid in ending the Ukraine conflict, but senior Belarusian opposition official Franak Viacorka warns against easing sanctions, fearing it may strengthen Russias war efforts and reward repression.
