Chairman of Brest regional executive committee Kanstantsin Sumar
It is two years since Baranavichy activist Mikalai Charnavus started applying for the registration of a local Ukrainian minority NGO “Kobzar”. His latest visit to chairman of Brest regional executive committee Kanstantsin Sumar was not optimistic, as the high official said the NGO could only be registered after 15 mln rubles were donated to the city budget.
According to the activist, Mr. Sumar’s another condition was making the Ukrainian city of Simferopol a twin city of Baranavichy.
