The Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) announced expanded sanctions against the Belarusian regime three years after the country’s disputed 2020 presidential election.
The sanctions target individuals and entities involved in the country’s ongoing “civil society repression, complicity in the Russian Federation’s unjustified war in Ukraine, and enrichment of repressive Belarusian regime leader Alyaksandr Lukashenka,” the Treasury said in a press release Wednesday.
