It is noted that this will be the first visit of the US Secretary of State in the history of modern Belarus.

In August, a visit to Minsk was made by Assistant to the US President for National Security John Bolton, who later resigned.

“Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is expected to follow his example and will go to Minsk in January,” the publication notes.

In addition, in September, US Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs David Hale also visited Belarus.
