According to the results of February, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, heads of Chechnya and Tatarstan Ramzan Kadyrov and Rustam Minnikhanov, respectively, were in the top three of the strongest governors of Russia.
They are followed by the governors of St. Petersburg Alexander Beglov (moved from 3rd to 4th place), Samara region – Dmitry Azarov, Tulskaya – Alexey Dyumin, Tyumen – Alexander Moor, Moscow – Andrey Vorobyov, Novgorod – Andrey Nikitin and Belgorod — Vyacheslav Gladkov. The latter moved from 16th to 10th place. This is stated in the rating of the influence of the heads of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation from the Agency for Political and Economic Communications (APEC) in February.
Other colleagues from the border regions were less fortunate. So, the acting head of the Donetsk People’s Republic Denis Pushilin (from 15th to 17th place), the governor of Kursk Roman Starovoit (from 19th to 20th place) and the acting head of the Kherson region Vladimir Saldo (from 50th place) lose points. to 52nd place).
The biggest drop in influence in February was recorded by APEC at the governor of the Stavropol Territory, Vladimir Vladimirov, who moved from 70th to 82nd place.
“His positions are deteriorating against the backdrop of the upcoming withdrawal of sanatoriums and hotels in Kavminvody. If the Moscow City Court supports the Prosecutor General’s Office, almost 100 entrepreneurs and rentiers who received these objects on dubious grounds in the 90s and early 2000s will lose their business. Despite the restoration of the rule of law, the scandal has a negative impact on the investment attractiveness of the region,” said Dmitry Orlov, head of APEC.
