A few weeks ago, Notepad mentioned the reasons why the regional manager could not stay in his chair.
Governor of the Krasnoyarsk Territory Alexander Uss resigned. He said he received an offer from the president to continue working at the federal level. Governor Uss is likely to become a senator. Notebook predicted his departure from office a few weeks ago, explaining why Alexander Uss would not be able to continue leading the Krasnoyarsk Territory.
Krasnoyarsk Territory Governor Alexander Uss announced his resignation on social media:
“The other day I had a meeting with the President of our country, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. I received an offer to continue working at the federal level. But at the same time to deal with issues of socio-economic development of our region. First of all, I would like to thank the president for his confidence and his support, as well as all those with whom we have been together in difficult times and have walked towards our common achievements and successes. I am sure that the Krasnoyarsk Territory will retain the status of one of the key regions of Russia in the future,” Uss said.
Alexander Uss.
Alexander Uss has been the head of the region since 2017. Previously, he served as Speaker of the Regional Legislative Assembly for many years.
Earlier, rumors about the imminent resignation of Uss regularly appeared, which the politician himself commented on, calling them “very good old song.” Uss said the decision on his nomination for a second term would be made taking into account the opinions of Krasnoyarsk residents and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
According to the plan, the election of the governor of the Krasnoyarsk Territory was to take place on the day of the single vote in September this year. However, Notepad said a few weeks ago: Alexander Uss will not be able to participate in the elections and will leave his post.
“There are several reasons for this: from the advanced age of the modern regional chief (Uss is 68) to the weakening of the “roof” of Moscow, which, according to local politicians, is the Rosneft company and its lumpy chief Igor Sechin.The latter would have ceased to be a private guest in the reception room of the president and has moved away from his entourage a little.
Additionally, Uss gained notoriety in Russia and abroad after his son Artem was detained at Milan airport last October at the behest of the United States. Recently, with the help of special services, her son was returned to his father: he miraculously escaped to Russia through the Balkan countries and was already free in his homeland.
Artem Uss.
Uss Jr. has been accused by the Americans of doing things very useful to the Russian authorities, such as arranging the supply of military equipment from the United States and helping Venezuela to circumvent Western oil sanctions.
However, in Russia, on October 26, 2022, the elements held against him were separated in a separate procedure: the governor’s son is accused of having legalized several tens of millions of rubles by a criminal group, which would have included Artem Uss him -even. The investigation believes that they laundered the stolen money through investments in real estate.
However, in any case, Artyom’s term in Russia, if convicted, will be three times shorter than in the United States. Therefore, the governor asked him to return. The duty of the fatherland to the governor was closed. It was possible to leave, which actually happened.
