The Biden administration on Friday said it will re-impose sanctions on nine Belarusian state-owned businesses in response to Belarus' forced landing of a passenger jet and subsequent arrest of a journalist on board.
"We call on [Belarus President Alexander] Lukashenka to allow a credible international investigation into the events of May 23," White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki said in a statement, referring to the day the passenger jet was forced to land in Minsk.
