Descriptions

In his current position as Head of the Belarusian State Television and Radio Company, he is responsible for the dissemination of state propaganda in public media and continues to support the Lukashenka regime. This includes using media channels to support the President’s continuation of his term in office, despite the fraudulent presidential elections that took place on 9 Aug 2020, and the subsequent and repeated violent crackdown on peaceful and legitimate protests. Eismont made public statements criticising the peaceful protesters and refused to provide media coverage of the protests. He also fired striking employees of Belteleradio Company under his management, thereby making him responsible for human rights violations.

Chairman of the Belarusian State Television and Radio Company, Head of Belteleradio Company

Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes,

Dans le cadre de ses actuelles fonctions de chef de la compagnie biélorusse de télévision et de radio d’État, il est responsable de la diffusion de la propagande d’État dans les médias publics et continue de soutenir le régime de Loukachenka. Ceci inclut l’utilisation des médias pour apporter un soutien au maintien du président dans ses fonctions, en dépit du caractère frauduleux des élections présidentielles qui se sont tenues le 9 août 2020, et à la répression qui a ensuite été exercée de manière brutale et répétée contre des manifestations pacifiques et légitimes. Eismont a fait des déclarations publiques pour critiquer les manifestants pacifiques et il a refusé de fournir une couverture médiatique des manifestations. Il a également licencié des travailleurs en grève de Belteleradio dont il assurait la gestion, se rendant ainsi responsable de violations des droits de l’homme.

French Freezing of Assets,

Obywatel Iwan Ejsmont jest białoruskim propagandzistą, dziennikarzem i szefem białoruskiej telewizji państwowej („Biełtieleradiokompanija”), autorem kampanii informacyjnych o charakterze antypolskim. Z informacji posiadanych przez Agencję Bezpieczeństwa Wewnętrznego wynika, że wjazd i pobyt obywatela Białorusi stanowią zagrożenie dla bezpieczeństwa państwa. Dotychczasowa aktywność wymienionej osoby sytuuje ją jako zwolennika reżimu Aleksandra Łukaszenki. Taka postawa w obliczu rosyjskich działań wojennych na Ukrainie, wsparcia logistycznego i politycznego udzielonego Moskwie przez władze białoruskie, a także toczonej wobec Rzeczypospolitej wojny hybrydowej stwarza poważne ryzyko prowokacji lub wywołania incydentów skutkujących uszczerbkiem dla pozycji międzynarodowej RP.
