Norway announced its readiness to impose sanctions against Belarus

"Norway will support sanctions against Belarus," Huitfeldt quoted TASS as saying.

She stressed that Norway does not want "this movement of migrants to continue."

According to the Foreign Minister, the situation on the Belarusian-Polish border is "a cynical use of ordinary people who pay because they are looking for a better life."

Earlier it became known that the foreign ministers of the EU countries agreed on the introduction of the fifth package of sanctions on Belarus.

In addition, White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki said that the United States and the European Union are working in close coordination on new sanctions against Belarus.
