Polish authorities have commented on previous information to ban Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko and his officials an entry into Poland. According to the official representative of the Polish MFA, "Warsaw has already prepared its own list of the Belarusian regime representatives, not allowed into the country; the ban has already entered into force."

Polish Foreign Minister noted that in addition to its own list, Warsaw was also actively involved in discussing the list of persons to be possibly denied entry into the European Union, RBC reports.

As Telegraf previously reported, Foreign Ministry spokesman Andrei Savinykh said on January 18 that the Belarusian Foreign Ministry had not yet received notification from Warsaw to ban the President Alexander Lukashenko and a number of Belarusian officials an entry to Poland.

Andrei Savinykh noted that diplomats had heard some information in press about Poland’s possible visa bans against Belarusian officials, but would not respond until being confirmed by their own channels.
