The United States of America is lifting sanctions on Belarusian potash. This was announced to journalists by U.S. Special Envoy for Belarus John Coale, according to the press service of Alyaksandr Lukashenka.
“In accordance with the instructions of President Donald Trump, the United States is lifting sanctions on potash. I think this is a very good move by the United States for Belarus. We are lifting them now,” he said.
He noted that discussions on sanctions would continue.
“As relations between the two countries normalize, more sanctions will be lifted,” the U.S. representative said.
Coale also expressed hope that in the future the sides would reach a point where no sanctions remain at all.
As a reminder, talks between Alyaksandr Lukashenka and U.S. Special Envoy John Coale, which began the previous day on Friday, 12 December, continued on Saturday, 13 December.
