Connections: Aleksandr Lukashenko (political patron), Leonid Minets and Olga Minets (business partners in the media business), Tatiana Teterina (daughter), Raman Buhayets (business partner), Igor Zaichkov (former Lukashenko aide for sports and deputy director of BelGlobalStart), Tatsiana Matveyeva (business partner), Aliaksei Matveyeu (business partner), Aleh Kachan (former Minister of Sports of Belarus, later head of BelPakSnab, a company linked to Teterin), Eugeny Liventsev (business partner), Andrei Kuzmenko (business partner), Anatol Yarmolenka (business partner).

Privileges: Thanks to his close ties with Aleksandr Lukashenko, Teterin can address business matters directly and secure preferential treatment. As a result, he received tax breaks on re-export operations and a de facto monopoly on importing beer and confectionery. He also received special terms and cheap land for constructing a complex near the Palace of Independence, which investigators consider preferential. Additionally, he received the exclusive right to run a vehicle disinfection business at border crossings.

From 2018 to 2021, he acquired nearly 30 hectares of land through a lifetime, inheritable leasehold. In 2025, the Start TS Farming Enterprise was included in the state investment program. This granted the company access to loans from Bank Razvitiya and budgetary funding.

Restrictions: Teterin has been subject to EU sanctions since June 21, 2021, and Swiss sanctions since July 7, 2021. The European justification cites his membership in Lukashenko's inner circle and the benefits he received from the regime. The restrictions include freezing assets in relevant jurisdictions and banning entry into the EU.
