The Biden administration is urging U.S. citizens in Belarus to depart the country immediately and warned against travel there in a statement published Monday.

The updated travel warning comes after bordering countries Lithuania, Latvia and Poland have stepped up security along the border over concerns about Russian Wagner mercenary forces exiled in the country.

The State Department, in its warning, encouraged Americans still in Belarus to depart the country immediately and categorized the country as a Level 4 risk, the highest security warning.

    Or, tell them to come visit you instead.

        Yeah that’s a big issue. Hell even some of the EU countries have issues getting visitor visas for the USA. I’ve got UA and PL family and both prior to the war had really really tough times just to be able to come visit.

      No clue why you’re being shot down for this but you’re right, if you have Belarusian family and they’re not pro-putin then I’d try my hardest to get them over here.
