This is a second sudden unexplained death of Lukashenko’s officials in a year – in November, Belarusian foreign minister Vladimir Makei dropped dead. Makei had formerly vowed his nation – widely seen as now controlled a puppet regime – would not allow Vladimir Putin’s troops to use it as a staging area to attack Ukraine. Only days ago, a Russian chief was found dead in a river, but “didn’t drown” – sparking conspiracies around his death. Andrey Fomin was swimming in the Volga, Europe’s longest river, when he suddenly died at the weekend. The 57-year-old was the chief prosecutor of Chuvashia, a region about 420 miles east of Moscow, and was an ardent supporter of despot Putin. According to Telegram channel A Siren, Fomin was reported dead on Saturday, July 1. He was reportedly swimming about 500ft offshore but did not make it back to the river bank.
