November 4, Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong> Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka has appointed Andrej Rybako\u016d as new CEO at the Belarusian potash giant Bie\u0142aru\u015bkalij, his press office reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rybako\u016d, who had managed the state-run oil and petrochemical Bie\u0142naftachim monopolist, replaced Ivan Ha\u0142avaty who headed Bie\u0142aru\u015bkalij since 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0141uka\u0161enka also suggested selling potash fertilizers on the domestic market with  smaller profit margins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou see that there is a crazy demand for the food products, in the neighboring state [Russia] . . . in China and others,” the state-run media quoted him as saying. “Let’s finally introduce enough mineral fertilizers in agriculture to increase crop production and respectively livestock to get more milk and meat and sell them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bie\u0142aru\u015bkalij has been under the European Union\u2019s sanction since 2021 over allegations of human rights abuses. Ha\u0142avaty was also sanctioned for his links to \u0141uka\u0161enka and his family members as well as alleged involvement in politically-motivated reprisals at the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few weeks ago, the European Court of Justice rejected appeals by the Bie\u0142aru\u015bkalij, Ha\u0142avaty and the Belarusian Potash Company (BPC) against EU sanctions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bie\u0142aru\u015bkalij remains a key source of income for the \u0141uka\u0161enka regime and enjoys preferential treatment to export potash fertilizers, according to the ruling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
