April 9, Pozirk.<\/em> <\/strong>Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka has signed into law a ratification bill for a double tax treaty between Belarus and Myanmar, according to the Belarusian leader\u2019s press office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The accord does not apply to corporate and individual income taxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ihar Siarhiejenka, chairman of the House of Representatives, went to Myanmar on April 7 to attend the presidential inauguration ceremony for junta chief Min Aung Hlaing. He will stay there until April 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On April 3, \u0141uka\u0161enka \u201con behalf of compatriots and his personal behalf\u201d congratulated General Min Aung Hlaing on his election as president of Myanmar. On that day, the parliament of Myanmar chose Min Aung Hlaing to be the next president, formalising his grip on political power five years after he ousted a democratically elected government. Nearly 90 percent of the lawmakers owe their loyalty to the military, either as serving officers or members of the army-backed USDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Myanmar\u2019s parliamentary elections, held in December and January, have been widely dismissed by Myanmar\u2019s opposition forces and Western governments as a sham designed to formalize military rule behind a veneer of democracy. A delegation of Belarus\u2019 central election commission observed the final phase of the elections at the end of January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka visited Myanmar in late November 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Belarusian officials have sought to expand ties with Myanmar lately. The country has been under military rule after a coup in early 2021, followed by a civil war that is believed to have claimed more than 90,000 lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
