The Belarusian embassy has been evacuated from Ukraine, Belarusian Ambassador in Kyiv Igor Sokol said.
“All financial accounts were blocked by the Ukrainian side, intolerable conditions were created, and there were threats of physical violence all the time. We were actually under siege, so the leadership, the Foreign Ministry of the country decided to evacuate the embassy,” Sokol said on the STV television channel.
“It was the last group of 11 employees and two family members to leave by seven cars via the corridor that was provided by the Ukrainian side, because they failed to provide security in the direction of the Republic of Belarus. We had to leave for the Republic of Moldova,” the ambassador said.
