Grateful for the opportunity to meet with Mark Clayton, Deputy Director at FCDO, and for a profound discussion about the situation in Belarus and about the ways how international community and the UK in particular can help Belarusians address our complicated agenda.

Glad to return to London for meetings with experts, officials and activists to talk about perilous situation in Belarus and around it and to explore practical ways to address our complicated agenda.
Please reach out if you want to reconnect during this week.

President Zelensky suggested @munsecconf.bsky.social to draw security line for Europe following the eastern border of Ukraine, Belarus, the Baltic states & Finland.

This forward leaning idea won't allow Russia to use Belarus for aggression against Ukraine & our other European neighbors.

State Department official visited Minsk for a meeting with Lukashenka to discuss the release of political prisoners in Belarus in exchange for sanctions release.

If sanctions can save lives, it's the way to use them now.
