Yakauleuski: Sheiman's appointment is connected with Venezuela

Yakauleuski: "This change or promotion closer to the President (he was not far from him anyway) is probably connected with Venezuela. Sheiman is in charge of the bilateral high-level commission with Venezuela. The word "high-level" means that he has the powers of a vice PM."

The commission is in charge if military and technical cooperation and arms trade, the experts says.

Valyantsin Rybakou will be able to go back to work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs where he started his career as a diplomat, Yakauleuski thinks.
