Ivan Stanislavovich Tertel (Russian: Иван Станиславович Тертель; Belarusian: Іван Станіслававіч Тэртэль; born 8 September 1966) is a Belarusian politician. He is the current Chairman the State Security Committee of the Republic of Belarus.
Early life
He was born on September 8, 1966, in the Grodno Region. His father Stanislav Yanovich was a projectionist and his mother Anastasia Kazimirovna worked as a librarian. He comes from a Catholic family.[1]
He studied at a basic school in Privalki, graduated from high school in Druskininkai.
Military service
Tertel was conscripted by the Soviet Army in 1984, serving in Tula. In 1989, he graduated from the Ryazan Guards Higher Airborne Command School. He studied with Yunus-bek Yevkurov.[2]
In 1994, he graduated from the National Security Institute of the KGB of the Republic of Belarus, and in 1996 from the Yanka Kupala State University of Grodno. In 2017, he graduated from the Academy of Public Administration under the President of the Republic of Belarus .
From 1993 to 2007, he served in the State Border Committee of the Republic of Belarus and held the position of head of the information and analytical group in the 16th border detachment of the border troops.
Political career
Between November 24, 2008, and December 16, 2013, he served as Deputy Chairman of the State Security Committee, responsible for ensuring economic security and combating corruption. From December 16, 2013, to June 4, 2020, he served as Deputy Chairman of the State Security Committee. During this time, he also served as a member of interdepartmental commissions on military-technical cooperation and export control, as well as on security in the economic sphere under the Security Council of Belarus.
On June 4, 2020, he was appointed Chairman of the State Control Committee of the Republic of Belarus. He requested to be dismissed from military service and transferred to the reserve, while retaining the right to wear military uniforms and insignia.[3]
On August 17, 2020, in Novopolotsk, Ivan Tertel attempted to address the striking workers of the Naftan Production Association who were dissatisfied with the results of the 2020 presidential elections in Belarus. However, they did not listen to him and instead began to boo and shout at Tertel, demanding that he leave.[4][5]
On September 3, 2020, he was relieved of his position as Chairman of the State Control Committee and appointed as Chairman of the State Security Committee of the Republic of Belarus. In October 2020, he was granted the military rank of lieutenant general.[6]
In January 2021, Igor Makar, a former deputy commander of the combat group of the Almaz Special Anti-Terrorism Unit, claimed that Ivan Tertel was involved in developing the plan to assassinate Pavel Sheremet in 2016.
Sanctions
He has been sanctioned and put under restrictive measures by various countries, including the US, the EU, the UK government, New Zealand, Canada, Ukraine, Australia, and Japan. Much of this has to do with his participation in the 2010 Belarusian protests on the side of the state.[7][8][9]и[10][11][12]
Personal life
Yevkurov married Mareta on 23 December 2007.[13] They are parents of five children.[14] Their first son was born on 1 November 2008.[13] His nephew Captain Adam Khamkhoev was a commander of an airborne assault company and died on 21 May 2022 during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[15]
