Website of socio-political newspaper ‘Vitsebski Kuryer’ is blocked

The editorial board associates it with the enforcement of Decree #60 regulating the activities of the national internet resources.

’No one has explained anything to us or warned us, but we don’t have any access to the website now,’ commented Volha Karach, a founder of the Vitsebski Kuryer.

’We have made the news of our website accessible at Facebook and Twitter, but that doesn’t solve the problem’, complains Volha. ‘Every week, our readers are waiting not only for the printed, but also for the electronic version of our newspaper’.

At present the newspaper intends to officially address its provider, Beltelecom, to receive official explanations of the reasons for blocking the website.
