oland is "expecting" the Belarusian authorities to release all political prisoners, Polish Ambassador Henryk Litwin said at an online questions-and-answers session hosted by BelaPAN's newspaper Belorusskiye Novosti on Wednesday.

He said that Poland fully shared the European Union's common position on Belarus. "We influence this common position and are simultaneously engaged in dialogue with Belarus in all spheres that are within the national scope, and the dialogue is now very active in areas like economy, cross-border cooperation, environment and culture," he said.

Mr. Litwin said that the Polish president's meeting with Alyaksandr Lukashenka was out of the question in the near future. "Contacts at the head of state level are impossible," he said. "The issue depends on the development of dialogue between the European Union and Belarus."
