The Foreign Affairs Commission of the Belgian parliament's lower chamber are likely to consider in October a resolution urging to lift EU anti-Russian sanctions, lawmaker Aldo Carcaci, who drafted the resolution, said on Sunday.

BRUSSELS (Sputnik) — According to Carcaci, the resolution will call on the Belgian government to remove anti-Russian sanctions imposed by the European Union.

"Most probably it will be done in October," Carcaci, who is a member of Belgian opposition People's Party (PP) told RIA Novosti.

"By subjecting this resolution we open discussion on sanctions which primarily damage Belgian businesses, in particular crops producers," Carcaci added.

In 2014, the European Union imposed sanctions against Russian businesses and individuals amid disagreements over the crisis in Ukraine, while Russia banned EU food imports in return.
