The Liberal Democratic Party of Belarus (Belarusian: Ліберальна-дэмакратычная партыя Беларусі, Russian: Либерально-демократическая партия беларуси, romanized: Liberal'no-Demokraticheskaya Partiya Belarusy), or ЛДПБ (LDPB), is a political party in Belarus. It was created in 1994 as the Belarusian successor of the Liberal Democratic Party of the Soviet Union. The party supports the current president Alexander Lukashenko.[2] Despite the name, like its Russian counterpart, the LDPB is not a liberal democratic party, but adheres to a similar nationalist far-right ideology.[citation needed]
In the legislative elections, 13–17 October 2004, the party won 1 out of 110 seats. Its candidate at the presidential election of 2006, Sergei Gaidukevich, won 3.5% of the vote.[citation needed]
According to the official results of the elections to the local Councils of Deputies of the Republic of Belarus (2014), no candidate from the party was not able to become a deputy. Leader Gaydukevich is the deputy chairman of the Standing Committee of the National Assembly of Belarus for international affairs and national security. He was elected in 2016 a member of the National Council of the sixth convocation of the Minsk region.[citation needed]
