The European Union is set to impose the fifth package of sanctions against Belarus, including 17 people and 12 entities, over the migration crisis along the Polish-Belarusian border.

This move came after the permanent representatives of 27 European Union countries voted unanimously, on Wednesday, in favor of imposing the fifth package of sanctions, which targeted Belava, Syrian airline Cham Wings, Belarusian judges, and border service employees.

"Open Joint Stock Company "Belavia" is the State-owned national flag carrier airline. Aliaksandr Lukashenka promised that his administration would provide all possible support to Belavia after the Union decided to introduce a prohibition on the overflight of Union airspace and on access to Union airports by all Belarusian air carriers. To that end, he agreed with the Russian President Vladimir Putin on planning the opening of new airline routes for Belavia," the EU document said.

The EU also claimed that Cham Wings "contributes to activities by the Lukashenko regime that facilitate the illegal crossing of the external borders of the Union."

Belarus rebuffs any role in the emergence of the migration crisis along its borders with the European Union.

On his account, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko warned the European bloc against imposing new sanctions on his country, affirming that Belarus does not want any conflict near its borders.
