Anti-Belarusian sanctions have caused a 90 percent reduction in trade. Contracts will be serviced until June 4^th, 2022 only, and then the movement of goods will stop. As a result, agencies will lose funds and thousands of jobs – to eventually be forced to declare bankruptcy.

Customs brokers have drafted a desperate letter addressed to the Prime Minister, describing their plight – but received a boilerplate letter in response. They were offered alternative ways out of the situation that do not affect the current problems.
