Andriy Petrovych Beshta (Ukrainian: Андрій Петрович Бешта; 14 December 1976 – 30 May 2021[1]) was a Ukrainian politician and diplomat.[2] In November 2015, he became the Ukrainian Ambassador to Thailand, and in 2017, took up part-time positions as Ambassador to Laos and Myanmar. He held all three positions until his death in 2021, although in April he was dismissed from the position of Ambassador to Thailand along with several other ambassadors but held onto the post because a successor had not yet presented their credentials.[3][4][5]
On August 24, 2021, he was posthumously awarded the diplomatic rank of Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary.[6]
