Belarus is suspected of helping Iran procure missile technology, especially navigation and guidance products, in violation of U.N. sanctions. According to intelligence information, a Belorussian businessman named Yuri Charniauski has been trying to purchase an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) for his company, TM Services, from a Russian firm named Optolink in order to sell it to Iran. Members of the U.N. panel of experts will discuss the implementation of U.N. sanctions on Iran with Belorussian officials during a visit to Belarus this month.
