  • International criminal trial and international tribunal as mechanisms for crimes against humanity in 2020 and for war crimes and aggression against Ukraine;
  • The need to change the narrative regarding Belarus, given Lukashenka’s transfer of its territory under control of the Russian aggressor;
  • Synchronization of sanctions and their harmonization for Russia and Belarus;
  • A unified system for issuing Schengen visas for Belarusians;
  • Making decisions on the admission of Belarusian students to study at European universities;
