The Communist Party of Belarus (Belarusian: Камуністы́чная па́ртыя Белару́сі, Kamunistichnaya Partya Belarusi; Russian: Коммунистическая партия Белоруссии, Kommunisticheskaya Partsija Belorussii)) is a political party in Belarus, that supports the government of president Alexander Lukashenko.
The party suggested merging with the Party of Communists of Belarus on July 15, 2006. While the Communist Party of Belarus is a pro-presidential party, the Party of Communists of Belarus is one of the major opposition parties in Belarus. According to Sergey Kalyakin, the chairman of the PCB, the so-called "re-unification" of the two parties was a plot designed to oust the opposition PCB. [1]
As a member of the world Communist movement, the CPB enjoys relations with other Communist Parties in the region and throughout the world to a much greater extent than the PCB, which many in the region have considered "pro-Western."
