<CLARI-ITEM STORY>
<P> MINSK, Belarus, March 24 (UPI) -- The U.S. Embassy in Minsk has
protested the expulsion of an American diplomat from Belarus.</P>
<P> First Secretary Serge Alexandrov was arrested Sunday during an anti-
government demonstration in Minsk and ordered to leave the country.</P>
<P> Ambassador Kenneth Yalovitz, strongly protested the action at the
highest level of the Belarus government. An embassy spokeswoman in the
Belarus capital told United Press International that ``the highest
levels of the State Department in Washington'' had been informed of the
incident.</P>
<P> The diplomat was detained by Belarus police while carrying out normal
diplomatic activities. Alexandrov, who is of Belarussian origin, had
been watching a demonstration which turned violent. More than 70 people
were arrested, including two opposition leaders.</P>
<P> Police used tear gas and clubs to disperse the 10,000-strong crowd.</P>
<P> The embassy has demanded an immediate explanation from the Belarus
authorities for the action which is seen as a violation of the Vienna
convention on diplomatic rights.</P>
<P> National television in the former Soviet republic said in a broadcast
that the U.S. Embassy was trying to ``seriously interfere in Belarus'
internal affairs.'' It also accused Alexandrov of being a CIA agent
working under cover of a diplomatic rank.</P>
<P> An embassy spokeswoman told UPI she did not know what action the
State Department would take but did not rule out a tit-for-tat expulsion
of a Belarus diplomat from Washington.</P>
<P> Relations between the United States and Belarus have deteriorated in
the past few weeks. On Friday, Washington cut off $40 million in aid due
to alleged human rights violations by the Minsk regime.</P>
