"Mr President, above all I would like to welcome Alexander Milinkevich and Mr Kazulin, representatives of the Belarusian opposition, to the European Parliament today. It is very difficult at this time to put a finger on EU policy with regard to Belarus. On the one hand we are constantly having to deal with an authoritarian state, while on the other we are seeing signs of a certain evolution and certain changes to this system of a complicated international situation. EU policy at this time should be directed entirely at the Belarusian people. The question is: who stands to lose most by sanctions? The Lukashenko regime, or the people of Belarus? This is a question we have to answer for ourselves in the various EU institutions. There is no doubt that we must try out a policy at this time that will specify our objectives and bring benefits from EU actions aimed at Belarus."@en1
