Two Belarusian anti-nuclear activists Mikalaj Ulasievich and Tacciana Novikava were prohibited to enter Lithuania, their visas were terminated, RFE/RL informs.
The activists were travelling to attend a conference on nuclear safety in Lithuania.
Mr. Ulasievich says they were held by customs officers for six hours. Even a member of the Lithuanian parliament (Seimas) arrived at border to solve the matter.
Mikalaj Ulasievich considers that influential advocates of a nuclear power plant (NPP) construction in Lithuania are at the bottom of not letting them in Lithuania as both he and Ms. Novikava were intending to deliver speeches against using nuclear energy around the world.
The referendum on building a NPP is to be held in Lithuania this October.
