The Agrarian Party (Russian: Агра́рная па́ртия, Agrarnaya partiya; Belarusian: Аграрная партыя, Ahrarnaja partyja) is a left-wing agrarian political party in Belarus. It supports the government of president Alexander Lukashenko.[1]
It was created in 1992 as the United Democratic Agrarian Party of Belarus (Аб'яднанная аграрна-дэмакратычная партыя Беларусі).[2] In 1994, it changed its name into Agrarian Party. Leader of the party is Mikhail Shimansky.
