The Central and East European Coalition (CEEC) released the following statement in response to the efforts by Belarus President Alexander Lukashenka to destabilize the country’s borders with its NATO and EU member neighbors. The statement was issued in coordination with the CEEC’s Canadian partners, the Central and East European Council in Canada.

EANC is a founding member of the CEEC, which was established in 1994.  Its member organizations cooperate in calling attention to issues of mutual concern, especially regarding U.S. policy toward central and eastern Europe. 

Estonian American community members are invited to contact their Members of Congress to share thoughts on U.S. policy relevant to the situation.
