Treasury Targets Belarus Too


Nobody knows for sure if there are Belarus tanks or other military equipment in Ukraine, but just for allowing Putin to stage in their country:

As part of the United States’ serious and expansive response to Russia’s further invasion of Ukraine, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) is sanctioning 24 Belarusian individuals and entities due to Belarus’s support for, and facilitation of, the invasion. Today’s action focuses on Belarus’s defense sector and financial institutions, two areas in which Belarus has especially close ties to Russia.
