Kazakhstan, Fertilizer and Belarus’s Political Crisis (Grigory Ioffe, The Jamestown Foundation)

Since the start of 2022, two unexpected “black swan” events have indirectly altered last year’s calculus regarding the expected evolution of the Belarusian political crisis. First, Belarus joined the Russia-led Collective Security Treaty Organization’s (CSTO) intervention in Kazakhstan on January 5, 2022. Second, Belarusian potassium exports to Western fertilizer producers are coming to a halt under current sanctions. Taken together, these developments make the potential uncoupling of Belarus from Russia an even more distant prospect and likely freeze any impending change at the helm of power in Minsk.
