More government resignations in Brest
Anatoly Bushuyev has resigned as chairman of the State Property Management and Privatization Committee of the Brest Regional Executive Committee (regional government).
Minister of State Property Management and Privatization Vasily Novak has accepted Mr. Bushuyev's resignation. The Ministry itself is about to cease to exist in Belarus' ongoing government reform, but the Council of Ministers has decided to leave its regional branches intact. Mr. Bushuyev is reluctant to comment on the reasons behind his
resignation.
Vera Osmolovskaya, chief of the Industry and Foreign Economic Activities Department of the Brest City Executive Committee, handed in her resignation earlier this week. November has also been marked by the resignations of Gennady Mosko, chairman of the Brest City Executive Committee, and Mikhail Kolotukhin, the Brest region's
police chief. No replacement has been found for the city head, while Mr. Kolotukhin has been succeeded by Colonel Vladimir Shafarenko, who formerly represented Belarus' Ministry of Internal Affairs in Poland.
There are two more notable vacancies in Brest. The region's TV and radio chief, Vasily Manyuk, has been appointed first deputy chairman of the Belarusian State Television and Radio Company. Nina Tolstik has been dismissed as director of the state-run Business Center in Brest's free economic zone.
