Belarus Headlines 38

The Parliamentary Groups of the Party of European Socialists, the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) and European Democrats in the European Parliament in co-operation with the Office for a Democratic Belarus and the Pontis Foundation are pleased to invite you to take part in a debate on EU-Belarus relations that will bring together representatives of Belarusian NGOs, Members of the European Parliament, senior officials of the EU Council and the European Commission, as well as other interested parties. The debate will be preceded by a presentation of a ‘Monitoring Report on Developments in Belarus, October 2008 – January 2009’ prepared by the Belarusian International Implementers Meeting (BIIM). In October 2008 the EU granted Belarus a sixmonth “grace period”, temporarily lifting a visa ban on state officials. The change of policy was meant to encourage development of democracy and respect for human rights in the country.
