Former Minister of Nuclear Energy Adamov turned out to be a terrible swindler. Otherwise, why would the Basmanny Court issue a warrant for his arrest. Thus, the Russian authorities want to get ahead of the Americans in line for Adamov, who is still being held by the Swiss. Among the many options for solving Adamov’s problem (from the theft of a minister or his liquidation to diplomatic pressure), preference was given to the idea of deputy Ilyukhin, who proposed recalling the old but closed case against Adamov and seeking his extradition.
