A delegation of the US Senate will visit Belarus on June 29 and 30, the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe at the US Congress also known as the Helsinki Commission told BelaPAN.
The delegation, which will make a stopover in Minsk as part of its European tour, will be led by Senator Benjamin L. Cardin, chairman of the Helsinki Commission, and Co-Chairman Congressman Alcee L. Hastings.
The delegation also will visit Bosnia and Herzegovina and Lithuania during the June 26-July 3 trip.
The stop in Minsk will “mark the highest level Congressional delegation to the authoritarian country in more than a decade,” the Helsinki Commission said.
