MINSK EXPELS BRITISH EXPERT in RADIOLOGY.



Belarusian authorities have invalidated a multiple-entry visa for Alan Flowers, an expert in radiology based at Kingston University in London, and banned him from visiting the country for the next five years, RFE/RL?s Belarusian Service and BelaPAN reported on July 31. Officials gave no explanation for the expulsion. Flowers, who came to Belarus earlier in July, must leave Belarus by August 3. Flowers, who has spent years studying the fallout from the Chornobyl nuclear disaster, told journalists that his deportation might be linked to his contacts with the unregistered "European Youth Parliament group in Belarus." "The main reason I believe the Belarusian authorities are not happy with my presence here is that this organization has become stronger and more Belarusian students have actively joined the debate," he said.
