This was reported by the Nasha Niva publication, which was recognized by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Belarus as an extremist formation and blocked on the territory of Belarus and Russia.
According to the publication, Alexander Lukashenko’s assistant in the Vitebsk region, Igor Brylo, disappeared from his workplace in the company of unknown men several days ago and has not appeared at his workplace since then. Journalists suggest that this circumstance is connected with the “dairy business”, the central figure of which was the general director of Babushkina Krynka OJSC, Gennady Skitov.
“Nasha Niva” reminds that Igor Brylo and Gennady Skitov have long-standing professional and friendly ties. The future Minister of Agriculture and Food of Belarus began his career as a veterinarian at the Borisov meat processing plant, when it was headed by Gennady Skitov. Igor Brylo has worked at the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of Belarus since 2013, and since February 2022 - as head of the department.
“During a public scolding of the “dairy business,” Alexander Lukashenko threw out, among other things, the following phrase about Skitov: “They called the Ministry of Agriculture and asked: “Don’t set an indicative there. Let me, we’ll sort it out here. We’ll sell it at lower prices.” prices, and then determine these indicative prices below which you cannot sell." So, do I understand?" the publication writes.
Correlating the statements and the time frame - and the KGB of Belarus stated that the operational development of Skitov had been carried out since 2020, when Brylo already held leading positions in the Ministry of Agriculture and Food - "Nasha Niva" suggests that Igor Brylo may be accused of playing along with corruption schemes through regulation or non-regulation of indicative prices
Indicative prices in Belarus are the minimum prices at which meat and dairy products can be sold for export. They are determined by the ministry through its decrees, published officially.
Igor Brylo headed the Ministry of Agriculture and Food for only a year and a half, after which, during a meeting with the president, he was removed from his post and appointed assistant to the president for the Vitebsk region.
