He noted that the decision of the European Union is unfriendly and unfair.
According to Volodin, this decision is cruel to people.
Also, the speaker of the State Duma said that the sanctions policy is aimed at containing Belarus and Russia.
“We have been living in this environment since 2014, and everyone should understand that any situation like this migration crisis is not a reason, but a reason for accusations,” he said.
On December 2, the EU introduced the fifth package of sanctions on Belarus.
It includes 17 individuals and 11 organizations.
