Border guards may be granted the right to fingerprint foreigners when entering Belarus

Within the framework of a visiting session of the House of Representatives' standing committee for Foreign affairs and National Security, deputies visited the facilities of the border service on the border with the European Union. One of the proposals is to expand the functions of the Border and Customs Committees. It is proposed to allow border guards to fingerprint foreigners when they enter our country.

Now the State Border Committee is preparing a number of amendments to the legislation, which should be submitted to the House of Representatives of the National Assembly. The Belarusian parliament is working hard to create conditions that will not allow to exert pressure on our country. First of all, it concerns sanctions. Among the innovations are changes in the Law on Customs Regulation. Such measures are designed primarily for the security of the state.
