Which of the high-ranking officials. Where do the children of Russia's main politicians live and study?
A brief history of the latest fight against “individual shortcomings” in the public administration system as a whole fits between two aphorisms of the president: from “Where are the landings?” to “The fight against corruption should not turn into a show.” We have collected in one rating all the most high-profile imprisonments of officials that have occurred since the beginning of the first term. The higher the place in the ranking, the larger the amount (in terms of rubles) the defendant was charged with. We also proceed from the provisions of the UN Convention on Illicit Enrichment and strengthen the position of the defendants due to the funds and valuables found on them, even if their criminal origin has not (yet) been proven.

Anti-corruption cheat sheet
Georgy Alexandrov from the Investigation Management Center spoke specifically for the Rosbalt news agency with senior reserve FSB officer Alexander S. about surveillance of officials and the methods of work of the “office” today. In Russia, a decision to criminally prosecute officials “with a special status” cannot be made without the approval of the head of state, emphasizes a senior reserve FSB officer.
— Which of the top division officials can fall into the zone of interests of law enforcement officers?
— First, you need to understand that almost all Russian high-ranking officials today are, in fact, representatives of the business community, defending the interests of certain private or public companies. All these corporations use intelligence services and law enforcement agencies to provide operational support in the fight for financial flows. Some call it the war of clans or towers. And in very large companies, such as Gazprom or Rosneft, there is also fierce internal competition - according to all the laws of wild capitalism.
In the current situation over the past decades, even state-owned enterprises need lobbying. Otherwise, businessmen can squeeze them out of lucrative orders even in the field of arms production. This happened in the nineties and at the beginning of the 2000s. A very small circle of people are allowed to manage perpetually unprofitable projects for a long time, as is, for example, what happens with the Bulava missile. This topic is generally considered to be supervised by Igor Sechin. Another similar major lobbyist today is Dmitry Rogozin. There is a fierce struggle between representatives of various competing structures - with intrigue, bribery, and the use of offshore companies. One of the tools is to initiate criminal prosecution. It can be started, for example, at the request of the head of one of the state corporations.
— What control or supervisory structures can develop officials of this level?
— The development of class “A” officials can be carried out by several departments: the “office” (FSB) and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, to which the Prosecutor General’s Office and the Investigative Committee are connected. The same “office” is very heterogeneous. Some of its chapters are tied to Bastrykin, others to Chaika, and others to the first person personally. In recent years, the “office” has been an extremely powerful gaming department in the struggle, where everyone is trying to promote their people to important positions and positions. The above-mentioned persons, as well as Zolotov (head of the National Guard), Sechin, Sergei Ivanov (former head of the Administration of the Presidential Administration, today the special representative of the President of the Russian Federation on environmental issues, ecology and transport) resolve issues there.
— Can we say that all high-ranking officials are under constant control?
- 99 percent. Another question is that in the case of operational development there may be many volumes with reports on external surveillance, wiretapping of telephone conversations (WTP), but nothing criminal. The sweet dream of the authorities since the Yeltsin era is to have dirt on everyone without exception. This was done personally by Boris Nikolaevich and his people. But I know that there are a small number of ministerial level people who are not personally involved in any business and do not acquire wealth. Others simply place trusted people in key positions - relatives, childhood friends, sports teammates, colleagues from previous places of work, who solve financial issues for them. For example, a good governor will not steal - he will create conditions for people close to him to realize their business interests.
— At what point do they begin to closely “lead” an official?
— When a fresh person just gets into the top ranks and reaches level “B” (deputy minister, service, federal agency, mayor of a not very large city, etc.).
-Where do they get information from?
- If he was completely clean up to this point (which is extremely rare), the collection of data from agents, from closed and open sources begins. Publications in the press, information from social networks and bloggers are very helpful. Something is bound to come up. This could be some kind of secret business, or, for example, a hidden relationship with a woman or man, drugs, or other bad habits. This information will definitely be tracked and transmitted upward to the level of management of the departments involved in development. Here the question arises: whose person is this? The figure can be friendly, neutral or hostile. In the first case, most likely, the data will simply be transferred to a curator who monitors the operational situation in a particular department. Unless, of course, it is some kind of “bomb”.
— What could become such a “bomb”?
- Well, if it turns out that a man is dismembering schoolgirls in his basement. Or has a large offshore office. But there are few such idiots.
— What if it’s “neutral” or “alien”?
— The received operational information is verified. If it turns out to be reliable, the collection of evidence begins, updating, filling with “meat”. After all, you can’t put newspaper clippings on the Kremlin table. For this purpose, operational measures begin - anti-tank operations, installation of surveillance. This decision is made at the level of top officials of the developing agency. In the course of work or based on the results, they can involve, for example, Bastrykin, who, depending on the political situation, can disclose this data to the president.
— Could the same Bastrykin give instructions for the development, for example, of FSO Lieutenant General Gennady Lopyrev, who was taken with a billion in cash?
- I'm sure not. This could only be done by the FSO's own security service, or the 6th FSB service, which is not entirely legal. But in this division there are people tied directly to “First”. So here, with a high probability, it could not have happened without the knowledge of the president.
— Top-level officials use closed communication channels. Are they listening too?
— These types of communications are listened to and recorded by default. Nobody discusses anything interesting about them or anything that needs to be hidden. Important information is caught in correspondence by e-mail, instant messengers, and conversations on “left” mobile phones.
— How are such telephone numbers calculated?
— Often, all tubes located within a radius of several tens and sometimes hundreds of meters from the object of observation or the location of its traditional location fall under the PTP. For example, places of work and residence.
— Was this the case with Alexey Ulyukaev?
— The whole official version with the arrest of the Minister of Economic Development, to be honest, seems crazy to me. Who do you have to be to extort money from Sechin? There are no such people in the world. With Ulyukaev, I am sure, this is a production from beginning to end. The entire operation was purposefully prepared in advance. He was lured to the Rosneft building. In my opinion, there is no point in talking seriously about a bribe. Ulyukaev has been in power for decades. He is not an idiot. His persecution can be caused by many different factors. Thus, the minister could be “brought under the monastery” without any real guilt at all. I admit that the goal was the desire to send a sign to the population, to my subordinates, or vice versa - a powerful signal to the world community.
- But what about the evidence?
“If a decision is made to bring the case to court, everything will be in the best possible way.” If there is a goal to accuse, for example, of rape, then the defendant’s sperm is found inside the victim. And with paint on your hands it’s just baby talk. When a well-fixed person, for example, rolls his fingers, any necessary substance automatically falls on them. And then a wash done in the presence of witnesses will show either special paint or the presence of traces of a narcotic drug. This applies to both clothing and discharge.
— Who gives the go-ahead for the implementation of information obtained as a result of the development of this or that high-ranking official?
— The same heads of law enforcement agencies report to “First” that there is evidence of the guilt of one of the VIPs. Then the president gives permission for intensive development. And when he receives the whole situation, he already decides what to do with the guilty person: scold him, fire him, or send him to jail. I can assume that the choice is made based on three main factors of expediency: personal loyalty, economic efficiency and benefit to the state.
The US Treasury Department has compiled the so-called Kremlin report - a list of high-ranking officials and businessmen whom Washington considers close to the Russian leadership. The report was prepared under the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA), which US President Donald Trump signed into law in August 2017.
The list includes employees of the Kremlin administration, members of the Cabinet of Ministersled by Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, the heads of Gazprom and Rosneft Alexey Miller and Igor Sechin, as well as 96 Russian businessmen, whose fortune, according to Forbes magazine, is from $1 billion. However, pIn addition to the public part of the list, there is also a non-public part, the US Treasury said. In the closed part there may be people who are not included in the open lists of politicians and businessmen, their position or position may be lower than that of people whose names have been made public, and their wealth may be less than $1 billion, the document says.
Just for reference
The report was compiled “solely at the request of CAATSA”, it is not a list of sanctions, and the inclusion of individuals and organizations in it “should in no way be construed as imposing sanctions on them,” the document says. It also does not “reflect an intent” to impose sanctions, does not impede, restrict, or prohibit anyone from doing business with these individuals or entities, or “indicates that the U.S. Government has information” that these individuals are involved in any illegal activity. or harmful activities.
High-ranking political figures are included in the report in accordance with the definition given by the US Congress in the CAATSA law, the document states. For the purposes of this report, these are: heads of the presidential administration; cabinet members, ministers, heads of other major departments; other high-ranking politicians, including leaders of the State Duma and the Federation Council, members of the Security Council, heads of state-owned companies.
