  Russia and Belarus suspended from CEPT membership

On March 17 the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications 
(CEPT) announced the indefinite suspension of Russia and Belarus 
following the invasion of Ukraine

The CEPT announcement said:

Outcome of the written procedure with the CEPT Assembly regarding 
suspension of the Russian Federation and Belarus from CEPT Membership.

Based on a request from a number of CEPT members, the CEPT Presidency 
carried out a written procedure, in accordance with the CEPT 
Arrangement, on the proposal to suspend indefinitely and with immediate 
effect the memberships of the Russian Federation and Belarus in the CEPT.

Thirty-four responses were received to the CEPT Assembly letter in 
support of the proposal and one abstention.

Based on the above, the CEPT Assembly has therefore decided:

1. to suspend indefinitely memberships of the Russian Federation and 
Belarus in the CEPT.
2. that the suspension of the said CEPT members will take effect as from 
00:00 (CET), 18 March 2022.
3. that any future readmission to the CEPT would follow the usual rules 
established in the CEPT Arrangement, notably the need for a two-thirds 
majority of members of the CEPT to endorse such a decision.


Moreover, the CEPT Presidency requested the Office to take all necessary 
measures in order to set in place the above-mentioned decisions.

The CEPT Presidency
