Belarus announced “mooring” due to migrants Lithuania

MFA Belarus commented on the charges in creating a migration crisis in Europe. Statement of the press secretary Anatoly Eyes is published on the Ministry website.

“Many states of Europe, including those who do not have external borders, also record the growth of the number of illegal immigrants. But moans and requires solidarity only Lithuania. Maybe the authorities of the country beneficial this state of affairs?” – said the eye.

According to him, European officials and Lithuanian authorities have consciously destroyed the border interaction system with Belarus.

“Lithuania blocked the financing for signed with the EU Agreement on the readmission, unilaterally suspended contacts with competent Belarusian colleagues, demonstratively broke out all the bilateral communications agreements on law enforcement agencies,” said the representative of the Foreign Ministry.

He noted that migrants flee from the ruined war regions in the hope of finding a new home, and stumble upon police violence and frank hostility. At the same time, the European Union “clumsily tries to use the situation on the Belarusian-Lithuanian border for the demonstration of unity and solidarity,” indicated the eye.

Since the beginning of the year, the border of Lithuania from Belarus has passed more than 4,000 migrants from the Middle East countries. In July, the Lithuanian government introduced an extreme situation in the country.

In May, President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko, against the background of the next exacerbation of relations with the West, threatened to weaken control abroad. “We stopped drugs and migrants, now you will be and catch them yourself,” he promised. Later, he stated that Belarus is not obliged to place refugees who “go into enlightened, warm, cozy Europe.”
