Minsk News Agency

The Minsk News Agency (明斯克新聞社), or Minsk-Novosti, is a Belarusian media organization headquartered in Minsk, claiming to provide news and information services. Online archives suggest the agency has operated since around February 2009. Key personnel include Andrei Krivosheev, who serves as general director and describes himself as a political and social observer, author and presenter of television projects for Belarusian State TV and Radio Company. The organization positions itself as a news agency operating within Belarus’s media landscape and has engaged in international partnerships, including cooperation agreements with Chinese provincial media organizations such as Gansu Province’s communication center. Krivosheev has been identified by Polish security services as actively supporting the Lukashenko regime and is included on international sanctions lists, with Polish authorities citing his activities as posing security risks due to his support for the current Belarusian government amid regional conflicts. The agency operates within the broader framework of Belarus’s state-controlled media environment, where independent journalism faces significant restrictions.
