Russia has accused Poland of violating the “accepted norms of international law” by seeking to interfere in Belarus’ internal affairs and undermine its sovereignty.
“The Polish authorities continue to openly interfere in the domestic affairs of the Republic of Belarus,” said Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova at a press briefing.
“The Polish leaders are at the forefront of the EU’s unfriendly policy towards Belarus and they promote the toughening of EU sanctions against Minsk,” she continued.
“Belarus unequivocally sees Poland’s actions as obvious attempts to interfere in its internal affairs.”
Her comments follow a diplomatic spat between Belarus and Poland last week, after embattled Belarusian president Alexander Lukashenko accused Warsaw of seeking to reclaim former Polish lands that are now part of western Belarus.
