lpv:translated text	". Belarus is subject to European Union sanctions because of its repression of opponents, which, according to the EU, has increased since Alexander Lukashenko’s controversial re-election in 2010. The parliamentary elections in Belarus failed to meet international democratic standards. A free election means that the people are free to express themselves, organise themselves and seek a mandate, but we saw none of that during the campaign. Moreover, the electoral authorities lacked ‘impartiality’ and the counting of the votes was questionable, to say the least. The elections took place in an environment that makes free elections almost impossible. Political prisoners are still locked up and opponents were prevented from standing as candidates. It is very clear that, rather than accepting the partnership with Europe that he has been offered, President Lukashenko has instead opted for a policy of repression."@en1
