Naomi Banned in Belorus

President of Belorus Alexander Lukashenko banned printed ads with models who are not citizens of the country. He didn’t even make an exception for Russian models. Since the 1st of January Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss should provide proof of Belorussian citizenship if they want to remain of billboards of Minsk. Mr. Lukashenko only wants to promote Belorussian models as he thinks they are unfairly discriminated by international advertising agencies. Unfortunately almost all international perfumers have global contracts with models and will probably stop advertising in Belorus. What is good for national self-esteem sometimes is bad for economy.
