The Council of the EU expanded "the black list" of Belarusian officials involved in human rights violations on June 20, 2011. Uladzimir Peftsiyeu, owner of "Beltechexport", "Sport-Pari" and "BT Telecommunications", was also added there. The EU documents describe Peftsiyeu as a person connected with Alyaksandr Lukashenka's family and the top sponsor of the regime. EU imposed sanctions on his companies because they belonged to Peftsiyeu, informs BelaPAN.
