The EU Policy Towards Belarus in the Context of the Presidential Elections on 19 December 2010

Summary/Abstract: The authoritarian regime of the president of Belarus A. Lukashenko makes the European Union’s policy towards Belarus completely different from the policy with regard to its other neighbours. The main aim of the paper is to show and analyze EU’s policy towards Belarus in the context of presidential elections in Belarus in December 2010. In the first part of the paper, the author very briefly describes the UE’s policy towards Belarus before elections. The following part is devoted to the most important events in the EU’s policy towards Belarus in the context of the last Belarusian presidential elections. The summary contains an analysis of reasons why the UE’s policy towards Belarus and its president A. Lukashenko is so difficult and, up to the present, rather ineffective.
