Abstract

15 Surganov Street, Minsk BY. It was early afternoon and Taman sat in a private cubicle, his occasional haunt, reading and re-reading Presidential Decree #59 of February 9, 2012, issued just weeks before and invoking a “conversion” clause that would demonstrably affect the “Berezinski Biosphere Reserves and National Parks,“ “Braslavsky Lakes,” “Pripyat,” “Narochansky” and, most importantly, “Belovezhskaya Pushcha” − “changing boundaries of zones regimes protection and use of specially protected natural territories.”
