VILNIUS—Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia imposed travel bans on President Alexander Lukashenko and 29 other Belarusian officials on Aug. 31, signaling impatience with the West’s cautious approach by announcing sanctions without waiting for the rest of the EU.
The three small Baltic states have led calls for firm measures against Lukashenko, who is accused by opponents and the West of rigging an Aug. 9 election to prolong his 26-year rule.
