The Financial Times reports that EU leaders have been preparing to “punish” Belarus after journalist Roman Protasevich was arrested when his flight was diverted to Minsk. Ideas being considered include targeting “the business interests of oligarchs who are financiers” of the regime, banning Belarus’s national airline from EU airports, declaring its airspace unsafe, and extending travel bans and asset freezes that are already imposed on dozens of officials, the paper says.
