Businessman Yury Chyzh comments lifted EU sanctions

Бізнэсовец Юрый Чыж пракаментаваў адмену санкцый Еўрасаюза

Yury Czyzh says he accepted the news about the cancellation of sanctions imposed on him and his companies by the EU ‘calmly. “I have got used to working under the sanctions in three years,” Chyzh told BelaPAN.

 

The European Union is yet to confirm the lifting of the sanctions, the businessman added. “The bankers have told me that I am still on the waiting list.”

The European Union Court lifted the sanctions again Yury Zhyzh, his group of companies Triple and FC Dynama-Minsk on October 6. The EU Council has not managed to prove the fact that Chyzh was financially supporting Alyaksandr Lukashenka’s regime.

 

The businessman was blacklisted by the EU ‘for rendering financial support to the Lukashenka regime with the help of his enterprise Triple involved in different spheres of the Belarusian economy’ in March 2012.

The entrepreneurs cannot assess the losses he have suffered as a result of the European sanctions because he has not tried to make calculations. However, his companies have not suffered any direct loss, Chyzh said.
