MINSK, 18 January (BelTA) – Belarus has started the preparations for the state border demarcation, Chairperson of the State Border Committee of Belarus Igor Rachkovsky informed while reporting to the head of state on the operation of the border service in 2009, BelTA has learnt.
“We have started preparing for the demarcation of the state border with Ukraine. We are planning to launch this work once Belarus ratifies the treaty on the state border with Ukraine,” said Igor Rachkovsky.
According to him, the border service protects Belarus’ state border, and also implements the state border policy having integrated into the law-enforcement structure considering the scope of tasks it fulfills. “The goals set for 2009 have been implemented. We have completed the reformation of the border service and created an integrated system of territorial border service bodies. There are no grounds for other reforms,” Igor Rachkovsky noted and added that the border system of Belarus may be refined in the future.
Speaking about the 2009 highlights, Igor Rachkovsky singled out the completion of the border demarcation with the Baltic states, optimization of the border zone depth and simplification of border crossing rules. About 2,000 permits to visit the border zone have been issued a year. In 2009 more than 4,000 permits were issued. At the same time, the security level remained the same and control over the stay of foreign citizens in border zones was ensured.
Some 515 border violators were detained in 2009, the same number as in 2008. The number of illegal transit migrants downed from 124 to 111 people. At the same time, according to Igor Rachkovsky, the number of the detentions for the violation of the border legislation has increased significantly – from 4471 to 7184 people.
In 2009, the Belarus Border Committee developed cooperation both with border services of the neighboring countries and the Belarusian law-enforcement bodies. In 2009, the Belarus Border Committee itself and in cooperation with KGB, the Interior Ministry and the State Customs Committee seized material values to the tune of more than Br34.6 billion.
