In his current leadership position as the Governor of the Grodno/Hrodna Region/Oblast he continues to support the Lukashenka regime.

Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes,

Dans le cadre de ses anciennes fonctions dirigeantes de ministre de la santé, il était responsable de l’utilisation des services de santé pour réprimer des manifestants pacifiques, y compris en recourant à des ambulances pour transporter des manifestants ayant besoin d’une assistance médicale vers des lieux d’isolement plutôt que vers des hôpitaux. Il a fait de nombreuses déclarations publiques dans lesquelles il a critiqué les manifestations pacifiques qui se déroulaient en Biélorussie, accusant en une occasion un manifestant d’être en état d’ébriété.
