June 27, Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong> Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka has dismissed Siarhiej Alejnik as foreign minister after a year and a half in office, Pul Pervogo<\/em> reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He picked Maksim Ry\u017eanko\u016d, 52, a former first deputy head of his administration, to replace him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ry\u017eanko\u016d worked at the foreign ministry from 2003 to 2006.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0141uka\u0161enka has appointed D\u017amitryj Krutoj, 43, as head of his administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Krutoj served as Belarusian ambassador to Russia, and earlier he served as deputy head of \u0141uka\u0161enka’s administration from June 2020 to August 1, 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0141uka\u0161enka’s press office quoted him as saying that Krutoj will remain in charge of the implementation of agreements with Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Natalla Piatkievi\u010d, 51, has replaced Ry\u017eanko\u016d as first deputy head of the administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She had held that office for two years, until the end of 2010, before becoming \u0141uka\u0161enka’s aide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Piatkievi\u010d was his spokeswoman from 2001 to 2004. She retired from civil service in 2014. Then she reportedly married Valancin Rybako\u016d, Belarus’ permanent representative to the United Nations, and lived in the USA despite being under US sanctions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0141uka\u0161enka has appointed Juryj \u0160ulejka, ex-chairman of the Brest Regional Executive Committee, as deputy prime minister in charge of agriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anatol Linievi\u010d, former first deputy chairman of the Viciebsk Regional Executive Committee, has been named minister of agriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Siarhiej Barta\u0161, who headed the ministry for less than a year since August 2023, has been dismissed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0141uka\u0161enka also has promoted Deputy Industry Minister Alaksandar Jafima\u016d to industry minister.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jafima\u016d repla\u0441ed Alaksandar Raho\u017ekin, who headed the ministry since October 2022. In turn, Raho\u017ekin has been named ambassador to Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juryj Fra\u0142o\u016d, who led the State Control Committee’s Main Audit Directorate for Minsk, has become \u0141uka\u0161enka’s aide in Minsk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
