The abolition of the diplomatic rank of P. Latuška and I. Liaščenia is reported to be “related to actions that degrade the state (diplomatic) service”.
V. Markovičius was removed from the post of Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary in Latvia “for improper performance of official duties”. His diplomatic rank has also been revoked.
From 2012 to 2019, Latuška was Ambassador to France. He later ran the Janka Kupala National Academic Theater, but was fired after condemning the treatment of protesters by members of the power structures and calling for a legal evaluation of his actions. After Mr. Latask became a member of the Coordination Council, Mr. Lukashenko declared that he had “crossed the red line” and would “comply with the law”.
The former Belarusian ambassador to Slovakia, Liaščenia, also expressed his support for the peaceful protests by Belarusian citizens after the elections and called on the authorities to investigate all cases of torture and beatings of protesters. Then he fulfilled his resignation. At the end of August, Lukashenko signed a dismissal order for Liaščenia.
