History
[edit]Until 1991 the Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic had been a constituent SSR of the Soviet Union. Upon the breakup of the USSR, the Supreme Soviet of Belarus declared itself independent of the Soviet Union on August 25, 1991, and renamed itself the Republic of Belarus on September 19, 1991. The Republic of Poland recognised Belarus on March 2, 1992. An embassy was established in the capital, Minsk, in 1992, with Elżbieta Smułkowa as Chargé d’Affaires. Relations between Poland and Belarus have been continuous since that time.
Polish Embassy in Belarus is located in Minsk. Additionally there are Consulates General located in Brest and Grodno.[1]
