For freedom and prosperity

Recently, the leadership of the Cato Institute in Washington signed a contract with Andrei Illarionov appointing him as a senior fellow at the Center for Global Freedom and Prosperity. As Kommersant reports, there is no talk of immigration yet. In January 2005, Andrei Illarionov voluntarily left the post of Russia's representative in the G8 countries as a sign of disagreement with the ratification of the Kyoto Protocol, which he called a “strategic mistake.” And in December 2005, Illarionov voluntarily left the post of economic adviser to the president.
