<s>[INST] The next text is a question of a member of the European parliament:"To my knowledge, during his visit to Belarus on 30January this year, the EU’s Commissioner for European Neighbourhood Policy and Enlargement Negotiations,Johannes Hahn, was handed a letter by the representatives of opposition parties. In the letter they expressed their concerns about the blocking in the territory of Belarus of one of the country’s key independent information sources, the website charter97.org. A copy is enclosed (2 files).  Since then, there has been no response from the Commission regarding its opinion of the declaration of Belarusian civil society, or the blocking of access to this website in the territory of the Republic of Belarus. This response is especially important given that the international organisation Reporters Without Borders has condemned the activity of Belarusian official institutions, culminating in the blocking of the website from 24January.  1.What is the Commission’s opinion of the actions of the Belarusian authorities, more specifically, the blocking of access to the website charter97.org, considering that these actions are aimed at restricting public access to independent media in an EU neighbouring country and a participant in the European Neighbourhood Policy?  2.Is the Commission taking, or does it plan to take, any concrete measures to persuade the Belarusian authorities to change their behaviour in relation to access to the media?"
