November 3, Pozirk.<\/em><\/strong> Belarus is planning to reopen its embassy in Slovakia before September 1, according to a decree signed by Prime Minister Alaksandar Tur\u010dyn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRestoring Belarus\u2019 permanent diplomatic presence in Slovakia will significantly improve the efficiency of our work in developing political, trade, economic and investment ties; exploring industrial cooperation opportunities; and developing new markets,\u201d the government\u2019s press office said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Belarus closed its embassy in Bratislava in the fall of 2023. The last Belarusian ambassador to Slovakia was Ihar La\u0161\u010denia, who resigned in protest against the government’s policy in August 2020. The diplomat, a former aide to Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka, supported peaceful protesters after the disputed presidential election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On September 3, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico asked Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka to set a date for his visit to Minsk, as the two met in Beijing ahead of a massive military parade. The two pro-Russian politicians also had a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin the previous day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
