Marat Markau served as Minister of Information since 2024.

Actor Ruslan Charnecki held the post of Minister of Culture for a very short time, one year and four months.

Appointing Markau, Alexander Lukashenka said that he himself asked for the chair of the Minister of Culture, and that "previous ministers were unable to work effectively."

Marat Markau was born in 1969 in Luniniec. He graduated from the Minsk Higher Engineering Anti-Aircraft Missile College of Air Defense, served 13 years in the Belarusian army, where he rose to deputy platoon commander. After graduating from the BSU Faculty of Law, he worked as an auditor for several years. Later he got a job at the Belarusian Telegraph Agency. From there he moved to the Presidential Administration, where he reached the position of 1st Deputy Head of the Main Ideological Department. In December 2011, he was appointed Deputy Chairman of Belteleradiocompany. In March 2017, he became Chairman of the Board of ONT, and from June 2024 — Minister of Information.

Dmitry Zhuk, who has been the editor of "SB. Belarus Today" since 2018, has been appointed in his place. He is the son of Belarusian-speaking writer Ales Zhuk and has a degree as a Belarusian language teacher, but has no reverence for the Belarusian language.

In addition, Alexander Tserekhau has been appointed Deputy Prime Minister for construction, transport, and housing and communal services.

Andrei Mokhar became the general director of BelTA (before this he was the director of the information broadcasting directorate of the ONT TV channel), and Andrei Dzіkun headed "Atlant".

Finally, Mikhail Orda was sent as ambassador to Mongolia.
