BRUSSELS/MADRID, July 26. /TASS/. The committee of permanent representatives under the EU agreed upon toughening of sanctions against Belarus, the Spanish presidency in the EU tweeted on Wednesday.
"Today, EU ambassadors agreed on adopting restrictive measures in view of the situation in Belarus and the involvement of Belarus in the Russian aggression against Ukraine," the presidency said. "The measures include listings of individuals and entities," it added.
Ambassadors at the same time did not agree upon restrictions against Belarusian potash fertilizers, a source in Brussels told TASS.
