Decree No. 422 as of 1 September 2014

    Concerning the demarcation of the state border of the Republic of Belarus with Ukraine

    On 1 September Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko signed Decree No. 422 “Concerning the demarcation of the state border of the Republic of Belarus with Ukraine”.

    The decision was prompted by the need to implement Article 3 of the Belarus-Ukraine Border Treaty as of 12 May 1997.

    The document provides for special conditions of conducting demarcation works on this part of the border. The border section in question is 1,084.2km long. The special terms are aimed at the efficient use of budgetary funds while conducting the works.

    The decree eases some demarcation procedures, which will help reduce the timeframe and the cost of the works.
