Belarus: Strategic developments in Minsk

In Belarus, a building for the KGB is being built on the site of a cemetery by Lukashenko's decree. In the center of Minsk, on the site of an old Catholic cemetery, a new complex of the Academy of National Security under the KGB of Minsk is planned. As early as 2018, the Ministry of Culture included the territory of the Zolotogorsky cemetery in the protected zone and banned construction there. Despite this, work has been ongoing for several months. The authorities have not disclosed what exactly is being built on the cemetery site. The Belarusian service of Radio Liberty has obtained project documentation for the KGB Academy and is describing what it will look like.
