Read it in Russian

The Byelorussian Foreign Ministry has stated that official Minsk may reply with adequate measures to the EU, which banned entry into its territory for three dozens of Byelorussian officials, including the country’s President Alexander Lukashenko.

“The Foreign Ministry states once again: to reply to people’s choice with bans means to reject the right of Byelorussian citizens to live in their own country in their own way, and not in a foreign one. Republic Belarus is compelled to take adequate measures against the EU and the USA. In accordance with international practice, they will concern analogous categories of persons,” official Minsk is quoted by Lenta.ru as stating.
