The State Financial Monitoring Service of Ukraine has called on the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) to recognize Belarus as a country proliferating weapons of mass destruction and blacklist it by the FATF.

"The Russian Federation, with the support and assistance of the Republic of Belarus (logistics, airports, military bases, weapons and military equipment, military personnel, etc.), continues open aggression against Ukraine... In fact, the territory of the Republic of Belarus, with the assistance and support of the political leadership of this state, acts as a springboard to carry out armed aggression against Ukraine. In this regard, the chairman of the State Financial Monitoring Service of Ukraine initiated an appeal to the President of the FATF with a call to recognize the Republic of Belarus as a country that, through its actions, carries out the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and to blacklist it by the FATF," the authority said on Facebook.

In addition, the head of the State Financial Monitoring Service initiated an appeal to the chair and executive secretary of the Egmont Group with a persistent appeal to stop Belarus' access to a secure communication channel and expel it from this organization.
