Milinkevich's Movement for Freedom to Launch Information Campaign about Assistance that Could be Available under European Union's Neighbourhood Policy: The Movement for Freedom led by former presidential candidate Alyaksandr Milinkevich on June 30 launched a campaign to inform the public about the assistance that Belarus may get under the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP). According to Mr. Milinkevich's press office, the Movement's activists will pass out pamphlets about what the EU can offer to Belarus and inform people about the benefits that the nation could get from the rapprochement with the EU. This campaign "is highly important and necessary on the way to the future partnership of Belarus with the family of European nations," Mr. Milinkevich was quoted as saying. "The EU's offers remain highly topical for us. Propagandists allege all the time that we can't rely on the EU because we are not welcome in Europe. On the contrary, Belarus is welcome in the European Union, the EU will welcome democratic changes in our country."
