He lived to be 64 years old.  This is reported by the news agency Belta, according to Reuters.  Press Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Belarus, Anatoly Glaz, confirms the death.  Makej has been foreign minister since 2012. Earlier this week, Makej attended a conference in Yerevan, Armenia for the Collective Security Treaty (CSTO), which is a military alliance between Russia and countries in Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and Central Asia.  He was scheduled to meet Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov next Monday.  Press and information director for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Russia, Marija Zakharova, states through the messaging app Telegram that they are shocked by the news.  Before the presidential election and the massive protests in Belarus in 2020, Makej had been one of the initiators for Belarus to improve its relationship with the West.  However, he changed this point of view after the protests took place.  Makej was an officer in the Red Army and later served in the army in Belarus after the dissolution of the Soviet Union.  He ended his military career in 1993. The cause of death is not known, but according to Belta the death must have been unexpected.<br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nrk.no\/nyheter\/utenriksministeren-i-belarus-er-dod-1.16196511\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ttn-69 <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>26 November 2022 at 14:48 The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Belarus is dead The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Belarus, Vladimir Makej, is dead.
