BELARUS: EU REGULATION PROVIDES DEROGATION FOR BIATHLON WEAPONS

EU Regulation 2018/275/EU amended Regulation 765/2006/EC to provide for a derogation w.e.f. 23rd February for the export to Belarus of certain types of small-calibre sporting rifles, small-calibre sporting pistols and small-calibre ammunition, and from the ban on assistance or services related thereto, while recognising that the export of such equipment should be limited.  A licence would still be required, and Member States have to inform the Commission.
