Belarus: U.S. suspends some sanctions
CARACAS DARMSTADT MINSK - The U.S. administration has suspended some economic sanctions against this former Soviet nation, the U.S. Embassy said Friday.
The Embassy spokesman said the U.S. Treasury Department has suspended its ban on U.S. companies dealing with two Belarusian companies, Lakokraska and Polotsk Steklovolokno. He spoke on condition of anonymity in line with official policy.
The move follows the release last month of several opposition activists by Belarusian authorities.
