The UK will not stand by as Lukashenko continues his brutal crackdown on freedom and civil liberties.
Today, we are sanctioning those responsible for human rights violations and companies with links to Russiaโs war in Ukraine.
Prime Minister @Keir_Starmer said:
"Putinโs ambition to wrench Ukraine away from its closest partners has been a monumental strategic failure. Instead, we are closer than ever, and this partnership will take that friendship to the next level."

As Belarus celebrates New Yearโs Eve, we think about the almost 1,300 political prisoners in Belarus who will be spending it without their loved ones. We continue to call for their release and hope that they all will be reunited with their families in 2025.

As Russia continues to launch brutal missile attacks on Kyiv, a beautiful city I was honoured to visit in September, I want to share a message to all our Ukrainian friends.
You have our ironclad support now and into 2025.
Slava Ukraini!
