Ukraine joins EU in demand to release Belarus leader

Ukraine joined the European Union in its demand to free Belarus opposition leader Oleksandr Kozulin.

He was sentenced to five and a half years in a Belarus prison last week. The European Union and Ukraine condemned his imprisonment as purely political and as proof that the ruling regime in Belarus is quashing democracy in the country.
