Here's what they write about him in the press:

Mansi or not Mansi?

A few facts from the life of the “appointee”

National question

The website of the former governor of the Tyumen region says that he is “a native northerner, and in the third generation.” And the founder of the Sobyanin family is a Ural Cossack, who “by the will of fate ended up in the Berezovoy region” - in the village of Nyaksimvol, Berezovsky district, Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug. The village is Mansi. Therefore, during the gubernatorial elections in the Tyumen region in January 2001, information appeared that Sobyanin was a Mansi. The name of Sobyanin as a famous Mansi even appeared on the pages of several websites dedicated to the history of the Mansi people. However, in the biography sent to the election commission, the candidate himself identified himself as Russian.

Pine skis

According to Sergei Sobyanin, thanks to his father, he fell in love with hunting and skiing. “I started skiing, it feels like before I learned to walk,” Sobyanin admitted. The ex-governor’s personal collection still includes homemade pine skis donated by his father. Sobyanin Sr. is not only a hunter, but also the chairman of the village council of his native village of Nyaksimvol. My mother worked as an accountant all her life.

Friendship with Abramovich

The ex-governor was in great relationship with Roman Abramovich. Not without his support, Sobyanin was elected head of the legislative assembly of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug. Sibneft (together with Surgutneftegaz) supported Sobyanin in the gubernatorial elections in Tyumen in 2001.

“Diplomacy” in Tyumen

Sobyanin was also supported in the gubernatorial elections by the heads of two autonomous districts that are part of the region - Filipenko and Neelov. They hoped that Sobyanin would not insist on merging the districts with the region. However, as soon as the Kremlin discovered its interest in “enlarging” the region, Sobyanin instantly forgot about the interests of his patrons. In 2003, he joined Dmitry Kozak’s commission and developed amendments that made the districts financially dependent on Tyumen.

Accused of Satanism

In 2001, Leonid Roketsky accused his main rival Sobyanin of bribing the judge who was considering the case of abuse by Sobyanin’s headquarters. Sobyanin himself also suffered from black PR people - he was accused of intending to bring Chinese guest workers into the region and even... of Satanism.

What's wrong with the press?

At the post of governor, Sergei Semenovich distinguished himself with the phrase: “I do not believe that a journalist can be free by definition, and our press cannot be free.”

Best manager

In 2003, Sobyanin was recognized as the best manager of the year by the Russian Managers Association. The governor spent a lot of energy on negotiations to move the head offices of leading oil companies operating in the region to Tyumen. For example, the office of the TNK-BP company is registered in Tyumen, which brought 14 billion rubles into the regional budget, according to local economists.

"Disservice"

Sergei Sobyanin became the first governor to join United Russia.

["Vremya-MN", 01/12/2001: "The Ural elite is friends with the Chechen separatists. As follows from the report prepared by the analytical department of the GRU of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces and published by State Duma deputy Viktor Ilyukhin in a speech on the AST TV channel, Chechen field commander Shirvani Basayev ( younger brother well-known terrorist Shamil Basayev) had previously been in contact with representatives of the political and business elite of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug (KhMAO), on whose territory more than half of Russian oil is produced. In particular, in August 1998, in one of the vacation homes near Moscow, he met with Sergei Sobyanin when he was the chairman of the Duma of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug (now Sobyanin holds the post of first deputy representative of the President of Russia in the Ural Federal District). Sh. Basayev, who was at that time the head of the Southern Oil Company, asked S. Sobyanin to facilitate a more intensive penetration of Chechen business into oil industry KHMAO. Viktor Ilyukhin also drew attention to the plan recently developed by the Union of Chechen Oil Workers and presented to Sobyanin for the employment of a significant number of Chechen refugees in the Tyumen region. This plan seems to Ilyukhin to be a development of previously reached agreements between Sobyanin and Basayev. After the fact" - insert by K.Ru]

[Gazeta.Ru, 11/15/2005: “Mislanded Siberian. [...] Sobyanin’s relationship with Surkov may turn out to be very difficult. Four years ago, Surkov did everything to prevent Sobyanin from being elected governor: Surkov’s old friends from Alfa Group and Tyumen oil company were interested in the victory of Leonid Roketsky. However, Surkov was unlucky then. Sobyanin was the creature of the plenipotentiary Pyotr Latyshev, behind whom loomed the figure of Sergei Ivanov, who was extremely close to the president. In fact, during the election campaign there was a separate war between the northern regions of the Tyumen region supporting Sobyanin , and the south of the region, where they wanted to see Roketsky as the head of the subject. After a landslide victory in the elections, Sobyanin immediately neutralized his opponents. Firstly, he headed the board of directors of the disgraced TNC, and secondly, he strengthened his position so much that when in February this year, Sobnyain raised the question of his reappointment; none of the serious competitors tried to prevent this. [...] An additional reason for the appointment of the head of the Tyumen region was Putin’s personal sympathy for Sobyanin. The governor has repeatedly demonstrated himself to be a loyal supporter of Putin’s course. At the beginning of 2000, he became part of the initiative group to nominate Putin for president, and a year after his election, he was one of the first to speak out in favor of extending presidential rule to seven years." - K.Ru sidebar]

Six versions of Putin's surprise

“Hu from Mr. Putin?” - stunned politicians asked each other 6 years ago. Today everyone is asking a different question. Why Sobyanin? Why was a Tyumen newcomer appointed to the post of head of the Kremlin administration, which often surpasses the prime minister’s position?

Sergei Sobyanin, of course, cannot be called a newcomer to the capital’s corridors of power. During Yeltsin's second term, the speaker of the local Duma from Khanty-Mansiysk was one of the most prominent Russian senators. In 2001, Putin personally blessed him for election as governor of the Tyumen region. After his active participation in the Kozak commission on local government Sobyanin began to be considered one of Putin’s favorite governors. In Moscow, there was periodic talk about his appointment as Minister of Justice, then Prosecutor General, or Putin's plenipotentiary representative in one of the districts.
But, despite all this, Sobyanin’s arrival in the Kremlin can be considered an exceptional event. For mysterious reasons, a person who is not part of the president’s inner circle has been appointed to a key post in Putin’s apparatus.

Version one. Neutral

At the end of the 5th year of VVP’s rule, all the main members of his St. Petersburg entourage quarreled to death with each other. There is a relationship of mutual hatred between the new First Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev and the head of the presidential secretariat Igor Sechin. Sechin and FSB Director Nikolai Patrushev treat each other no less “warmly”. And finally, almost all Kremlin residents of St. Petersburg, without exception, took up arms against the North Caucasian plenipotentiary Dmitry Kozak. Against this background, the appointment as chief of administration of a person from one of the competing clans would lead to a radical breakdown of the system of checks and balances.
Sobyanin’s arrival allows us to avoid this. The former Tyumen governor is considered a distinctly neutral person. Until now, he has managed to maintain equally smooth relations with Medvedev, Sechin, and Vladislav Surkov.

Version two. Not superman

For some time, Alexander Voloshin was actually the second person in the country. Valentin Yumashev was the supreme divorcer and arbiter of all quarrels within the oligarchic elite. But there are also opposite changes. By the end of their stay in the chair of the head of the presidential administration, Yuri Petrov and Sergei Filatov could no longer influence anything. And Nikolai Egorov was a minor figure throughout his entire Kremlin term. In a word, the position of the head of the administration in itself does not guarantee anything.
It is possible that Sergei Sobyanin was initially destined for the role of a “weak” head of the administration. They say that now it is important for Putin that all the most significant decisions are made in the Government House. That’s why a person not from St. Petersburg was appointed to the Kremlin, without his own team and the chance to quickly create one.

Version three. Temporary worker

That's it, the question of succession to the throne in Russia is closed. Either Medvedev or Ivanov will become president, some political experts decided after the reshuffle. But it’s hard to believe in such an outcome. By turning into candidates for succession, the two new deputy prime ministers have made themselves a huge number of enemies. Now everyone will gradually start tripping them up. And two with more than a year until next presidential elections- this is quite a sufficient period for the destruction of any politician. In addition, Putin is known for his dislike of revealing his political trump cards ahead of time. Therefore, it is possible that the entire current political structure is temporary. And that after a certain number of months and years, both Medvedev and Sobyanin will give up their chairs to completely different people.

Version four. Ejection to the top

A simple trick has long been known in bureaucratic circles: if you want to make some important chair vacant, ensure that its owner is promoted. Many people are sure, for example, that the deep meaning of turning the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Stepashin into prime minister in 1999 was precisely to free up the minister’s chair for the favorite of the Yeltsin family, Rushailo. The post of head of the Tyumen region is one of the most important in Russia. This region contains countless oil reserves. It is possible that, with all his sympathy for Sobyanin, VVP wanted to see another person in this chair.
Whether this version is justified or not will become clear pretty soon. Everything will become clear as soon as the name of Putin’s candidate for the new Tyumen governor is announced.

Version five. Uniter

One of the Kremlin's favorite political projects is the unification of regions. But in the Tyumen region this ambitious GDP plan has encountered a serious obstacle. All the main oil wealth of Tyumen is concentrated on the territory of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug. And the district political elite, led by Governor Filippenko, flatly refused to unite. To overcome the resistance of the Khanty-Mansiysk group, its protege Sobyanin was made governor of Tyumen in 2001. But this was not enough for the Khanty-Mansi people. New post Sobyanin guarantees that he will be the one top level control the association of Tyumen and will be able to satisfy the interests of all his old friends.

Version six. Nationalizer

Gazprom's purchase of Sibneft shares from Abramovich angered many liberal observers. They say, how is it that at one time Abramovich bought Sibneft for pennies, and now the state is paying the real price for it. But in ridding the old court oligarchs of their property there is also positive side. This can be taken as a sign that in 2008 there will be a real change of power in Russia. But in this case, Abramovich is far from the only oligarch who needs to get rid of property ahead of the changing of the guard in the Kremlin. It makes sense to do the same, for example, to the head of Surgutneftegaz Bogdanov and some other people. A good relationship Sobyanin and Bogdanov are well known. Therefore, it is possible that a new round of “oil nationalization” will be one of main tasks the new chief of the Kremlin apparatus.

Sergei Semyonovich Sobyanin- Russian politician and statesman, candidate of legal sciences, mayor of Moscow since October 21, 2010, replacing Yuri Mikhailovich Luzhkov (husband of entrepreneur Elena Nikolaevna Baturina) in this post.

Muscovites are not the kind of people who line up in chorus, walk and march. They have their opinions, they have theirs active position. They will never go against their will. No matter how many times I have met with them, they always tell me what they think to my face.

The working life of Sergei Sobyanin

Officials may say one thing, but in reality something else is happening. Even if the average situation in the city as a whole is favorable, then there is bound to be a certain percentage, 5-10 percent of the territories, that are problematic. Either the management companies there are bad, or the contractors stole something there, or something else. It's still the same percentage.

Vasya, I’m a good contractor, I’m a good customer, we’ll come to an agreement there, I won’t offend you. It’s understandable why he doesn’t offend him. Because they work in collusion. I don’t need any operational data, I just fire them as soon as such cases are identified, and that’s it.

Sergei Semyonovich Sobyanin - quotes

Muscovites are not the kind of people who line up in chorus, walk and march. They have their own opinion, they have their own active position. They will never go against their will. How many times have I met with them - they always tell me what they think to my face

Officials may say one thing, but in reality something else is happening. Even if the average situation in the city as a whole is favorable, then there is bound to be a certain percentage, 5-10 percent of the territories, that are problematic. Either the management companies there are bad, or the contractors stole something there, or something else. Still the same percentage

Vasya, I’m a good contractor, I’m a good customer, we’ll come to an agreement there, I won’t offend you. It’s understandable why he doesn’t offend him. Because they work in collusion. I don’t need any operational data, I just fire them as soon as such cases are identified, and that’s it

We think: the mayor of the city is doing a good job, or at least we hope that he will do a good job, and we give him a chance to work. But the United Russia party - we treat it much worse. And miraculously these two things come together

Origin

Sergei himself calls himself Russian and denies his Mansi origin. There is also a version that among Sobyanin’s ancestors there are Komi-Zyryans, but this information has not yet been confirmed by any authoritative sources. Sergei’s paternal grandfather, Fyodor, was an Old Believer and lived for more than a hundred years. Father, Semyon Fedorovich, was born in Nyaksimvol. Didn't finish high school. At the beginning of the 1950s, he became chairman of the Nyaksimvolsky village council of the Berezovsky district, and in 1967 the family moved to the regional center. My father worked in Berezovo as the director of a butter factory before the start of perestroika.

Sergei's maternal grandfather is from Chelyabinsk. He fought in the Russo-Japanese Company and the First World War, and became a full cavalier of George. During the revolution, he enthusiastically took the side of the Reds, fought under Budyonny, and rose to the rank of platoon commander. Then he returned to his native village, where he became a fairly prosperous and respected person. In the early 30s he was dispossessed and sent into exile with his family in Nyaksimvol.

Sergei Sobyanin’s mother worked all her life with her husband, first as an accountant for the village council, and later as an economist at a creamery. Sergei Sobyanin - younger son in family. He has two sisters - the eldest Natalya and the middle Lyudmila.

Education

Soon Sobyanin decides to get a second higher education and enters the Ulyanovsk branch of the All-Union Legal Correspondence Institute, which he graduates in 1989. In 1999 he defended his PhD thesis on the legal status of autonomous okrugs within the Russian Federation.

Labor activity

The second version is the opposite - after graduating from school, Sobyanin moved to Chelyabinsk and got a job at the Chelyabinsk Pipe Rolling Plant, and entered the Kostroma Institute of Technology in absentia. After graduating from the institute in 1980, Sergei Semenovich became a foreman of turners and a shop foreman. He led the Komsomol organization of the plant. In 1982, he began working as head of the department of Komsomol organizations of the Leninsky district committee of the Komsomol of the city of Chelyabinsk.

Administrative and leadership positions

At the end of 1988, he went to work for the Khanty-Mansiysk District Committee of the CPSU, where he worked until 1990. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, he was appointed head of the Kogalym tax inspection, and later (December 1991) - head of the Kogalym city administration. He led the city until 1993. While leading the city, he established relations with Kogalymneftegaz LLC, the city-forming enterprise of Kogalym. November 1993 was marked by the appointment of Sobyanin as first deputy head of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug for economic issues.

Speaking at a press conference dedicated to the first year of work as mayor of Moscow on October 19, 2011, Sergei Sobyanin said that during the year he managed to change the development strategy of the capital, stopping the destruction of the historical part of the city, as well as successfully combating illegal and spontaneous trade, modernizing work public transport, and also make the budget more transparent.

In 2013, Sobyanin informed the president about his resignation from the post of mayor of the capital of his own free will and to run in early elections in 2013. Vladimir Putin signed this statement and appointed him acting. mayor. Political scientists associated Sobyanin’s actions with his desire to prove the legitimacy of his position in the eyes of Moscow residents. According to the results of the vote held on September 8, 2013, Sobyanin won, receiving a little more than half of the votes. Opposition leader Alexei Navalny took second place.

At the beginning of 2016, Sergei Sobyanin gave permission for the demolition of the so-called “samostroy” near metro stations.

Connections and partners

Abramovich Roman Arkadievich, born October 24, 1966, entrepreneur. With the help of controlled structures, in particular Sibneft, he financed the election of Sobyanin as governor of the Tyumen region. At present, they continue to maintain relations, however, not as close as during the election campaign for the post of Tyumen governor.

Bogdanov Vladimir Leonidovich, born May 28, 1951, CEO OJSC "Surgutneftegas". We met through Filipenko. During his tenure as chairman of the KhMAO Duma and governor of the Tyumen region, Sobyanin acted as a lobbyist for the interests of Bogdanov and his business. Continue to maintain relationships.

Gavrin Alexander Sergeevich, born July 22, 1953, former minister energy industry of the Russian Federation and former member Federation Council from the Tyumen region. Cousin of Irina Sobyanina. Previously, we maintained close contacts, including of a business nature. Now their relationship has virtually come to naught.

Neelov Yuri Vasilievich, born May 24, 1952, member of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation from the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, former governor Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. He maintained and maintains a fairly close relationship with Sobyanin. They jointly participated in the development of the process of unification of the Tyumen region and the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, which is part of it, but is an independent entity.

Putin Vladimir Vladimirovich, born 10/07/1952, President of the Russian Federation. Sobyanin actively supported Putin in the presidential elections in 2000, and also financed a number of projects of the new President. In turn, Putin thanked him by personally “blessing” him for his election as governor of the Tyumen region. Putin appointed Sobyanin to the post of head of the Presidential Administration of the Russian Federation as a “hardware counterbalance” to Sechin. During his work in the Administration and the Government Apparatus, Sobyanin demonstrated exceptional loyalty to Putin, for which he was ultimately “rewarded” with the post of mayor of Moscow.

Rakova Anastasia Vladimirovna, born 02/08/1976, chief of staff of the mayor of Moscow. Actually common-law wife Sobyanin. I have known Sobyanin since 2001, when I worked to ensure the election of the governor of Tyumen. She followed Sobyanin to Moscow. She was the only employee whom he hired first to the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation, and then to the Moscow City Hall. Has very big influence on Sobyanin and enjoys his virtually unlimited trust.

Sechin Igor Ivanovich, 09/07/1960, President of OJSC NK Rosneft. Relations with Sobyanin are almost openly hostile. They finally deteriorated during Sechin’s tenure as Deputy Prime Minister, who oversaw the fuel and energy complex, when his activities directly “affected” Sobyanin’s business interests. Although Putin is trying to smooth over the differences between them, the confrontation between Sechin and Sobyanin may take a new turn during the election campaign for the post of mayor of Moscow in 2013. It is possible that Sechin may initiate the injection of a number of materials compromising Sobyanin.

Timchenko Gennady Nikolaevich, born 09.11.1952, entrepreneur. Familiar since the 1990s, when Sobyanin supplied oil to the oil refinery controlled by Timchenko in the city of Kirishi Leningrad region. According to some reports, it was Timchenko who introduced Sobyanin to Putin.

Filipenko Alexander Vasilievich, born May 31, 1950, auditor of the Accounts Chamber of the Russian Federation, former governor of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug. At the request of Sobyanin’s father, whom he treated with great respect, he supervised his son’s career, first through the CPSU. Then he was Sobyanin Jr.’s mentor in politics and business. At the same time, Filipenko planned to ultimately hand over the “reins of government” of the district to Sobyanin.

Khan German Borisovich, born October 24, 1961, entrepreneur, shareholder of Alfa Group. They collaborated closely when Khan became executive director of OJSC TNK-BP. Together we helped resolve conflict situations between TNCs and BP. They continue to maintain contact today.

Chemezov Oleg Leonidovich, born September 22, 1964, entrepreneur. He was Sobyanin's most trusted confidant during the election campaign for the post of governor of the Tyumen region. From 2003 to 2005 he was first deputy governor of the Tyumen region. Then Sobyanin appointed him as his actual representative to the TNK-BP company.

Yakushev Vladimir Vladimirovich, born June 14, 1968, governor of the Tyumen region. Previously, he headed OJSC Khanty-Mansiysk Bank. He was appointed to his position largely thanks to Sobyanin’s lobbying abilities. Continues to respect Sobyanin’s economic interests in his region.

To information

Having headed the capital in October 2010, Sobyanin first began to make personnel changes, getting rid of almost all the previous “Luzhkov” personnel. The most prominent were the resignations of the vice mayor Vladimir Resin and chief architect Alexandra Kuzmina. The capital's prefects were deprived of the status of city ministers. However, no one except Anastasia Rakova, with whom he had a special relationship, Sergei Semenovich did not bring from the apparatus of the Government of the Russian Federation, just as he did not bring anyone (again, with the exception of Rakova) to the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation from Tyumen and from the Administration to the Government.

In Moscow, Sobyanin tried to act the way he was used to acting in Tyumen, but did not take into account that these two cities are incomparable in scale. So, in Tyumen, in order to solve the traffic problem, it was enough to asphalt the roads. In Moscow, a much more serious problem than the quality of roads was traffic jams. Sobyanin was never able to cope with them. Neither the introduction of dedicated lanes for public transport nor park-and-ride parking helped. In turn, the constant repairs of the roadway, and especially the relaying of paving slabs by unskilled Central Asian workers, aroused suspicions of a banal “cutting of funds”, which Sergei Semenovich condones at best.

Sobyanin’s image was also negatively affected by his war with shopping kiosks and small shops. Overly zealous executors demolished hundreds of kiosks installed in accordance with all legal requirements, which caused justifiable anger not only among representatives of small businesses, who were primarily affected during this campaign, but also among many Muscovites who were accustomed to “walking distance” shops near metro stations.

Thus, during his almost three-year tenure as mayor of Moscow, Sobyanin was unable to solve long-standing problems. This, as well as the continuing rise in real estate prices, the reduction of “Luzhkov” allowances, the growth of uncontrolled migration from Central Asia with the simultaneous deterioration in the quality of street cleaning prevents him from becoming as popular a mayor as he remained Yuri Luzhkov before last day his tenure in office.

By character, Sergei Semenovich Sobyanin is far from soft. Otherwise, he simply could not have become what he became. He is smart, sophisticated in both politics and business, and ambitious. At the same time, he adheres to the principle: “Don’t ask for service, don’t refuse service.” All his appointments were not initiated by him, at least that’s how it looked from the outside. But still, Sergei Semenovich is more of an apparatchik than a politician. That is why he would never have become mayor of Moscow in a truly competitive election, especially if his opponent would have been another business executive who could communicate more actively with the electorate.

Sobyanin's family life is not easy. Upon arrival in Kogalym he married Irina Rubinchik, a representative of an influential Jewish clan in the region. Sergei Semenovich thought in this way to improve his career prospects. Of course, he succeeded, but friendly family I have never been to the Sobyanins. Sergei Semenovich and Irina Iosifovna were too diverse people. Sobyanin helped his wife’s business with administrative resources, financed, at her request, the reconstruction of the only synagogue in Tyumen, “resolved the affairs” of her relatives, but still the family ship continued to leak, even despite the birth youngest daughter. In the end, the Sobyanins separated and each lived their own lives.

Currently, the role of wife for Sergei Semenovich is played by Anastasia Rakova. He noticed her back in 2001, when she was an assistant to the first deputy chairman of the government of Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug Oleg Chemezov. Since then, Sobyanin and Rakova have been inseparable; he constantly drags her along with him. It is possible that they will eventually formalize their relationship.

Sergei Semenovich Sobyanin is one of the few people in the upper echelons of power who does not belong to the “St. Petersburg” group. Despite this, he enjoys the confidence of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin. He has proven himself excellent as a “curator” of a large oil region, head of the Presidential Administration, and chief of staff of the Government. Sobyanin continues to demonstrate his loyalty as mayor of Moscow. But we must still remember that Sergei Semenovich has been on Putin’s team only since January 2000, that is, after Yeltsin’s fateful “I’m tired, I’m leaving.” Previously, he demonstrated loyalty to other people. And it is possible that if the pendulum of history swings in the other direction, Sobyanin will also be loyal and in demand by completely different forces.
