In 2011, after the wave of repressions that followed the 2010 presidential election in Belarus, Lukashenko became subject to an EU travel ban and asset freeze as part of a sanctions list of 208 individuals responsible for political repressions, electoral fraud and propaganda. In the EU Council's decision, Lukashenko has been described as "Businessman, with active participation in financial operations involving the Lukashenka family.” The sanctions were lifted in 2016.
On 21 June 2021, Dmitry Lukashenko was again banned from entering the European Union. Switzerland joined the sanctions on 7 July.
On December 2, 2021, Dmitry Lukashenko and the Presidential Sports Club were added to the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List by the United States Department of the Treasury as well as to the United States Department of State's sanctions.
