Brother - 2: Siberian version: Alexandra Lebed can continue Alexey

The Legislative Assembly of the Krasnoyarsk Territory appointed the election of the new governor on September 8. The names of famous politicians and businessmen are already sounding as possible successors Alexander Lebed, political scientists pretend the chances of candidates. Meanwhile, significant adjustments can occur in the election alignment of forces. The brother of Alexander Lebed, the head of the neighboring Khakassia, Alexei Lebed, stated his very definite ambitions in an interview with OG. - You came to the big policy in the footsteps of Alexander. Have you felt your brother’s shoulder all these years? - He always helped me. Morally, of course. There was an agreement on friendship and cooperation between our regions, we had a wonderful agreement on many issues. From the construction of roads to broiler production. Together they built a bridge. He was called: "Brotherly." And I’m sure that we will build him ... - Would you like to continue the work of Alexander, becoming the governor of the Krasnoyarsk Territory? - Participation in the September 8 elections requires me a very balanced decision. Which is not yet finalized. It is not only about a vast territory. It is important not to bring people who live here. I have to calculate my strength well. And people living in the Krasnoyarsk Territory must say if they want to see me in this capacity! - How do you look at the possibility of the return of Khakassia to the Krasnoyarsk Territory? - I have nothing against this idea. - Although your regions are adjacent, their position is different. Khakassia is by no means a donor. - The question of donation is purely political. Every year we transfer taxes much more to the budget than we get back in the form of transfers. We were all driven into a corner, we seem to need help. So easier to manage us. At the same time, our lobbying opportunities are extremely limited: one deputy in the State Duma and two members in the Federation Council. The federal center presses us through inter -budget relations. They were built at one time according to the rule of parity: 50 percent of the budget - the center, 50 - to us. Today, the center is already taking 60 percent, 40 leaves us. Moreover, the most profitable, easily collected taxes are taken by the center, and the problematic ones, such as income tax, leaves us. Calculations are carried out to the maximum: collect, they say. And enterprises are trying to hide taxes, and the legislation helps them in this. Last year, we did not receive one hundred million rubles for this reason. There is such a company: Siberian aluminum. The main plant is here, and the metallurgical plant in Samara. There the workshop burned out, but here they made a profit. The company gives a combined balance: some losses. It seems that our plant works, smokes, people are sneezing there, but there is no profit. From January 1, we persistently asked them to share balance. Now there will be more taxes. The main thing is not even more - more taxes or less, but that the country does not create conditions for the development of the economy. No matter what I develop here - ten, twenty, one hundred new enterprises - still the taxable base of plug -ups, all the "extra" instantly "is cut off." Do I have one such picture? Take the Krasnoyarsk Territory: the donor, according to economic indicators, is in the first five subjects of the Federation, and today has tremendous wage debts. The budget is terrible: adopted with a deficit of 24 percent, at 7 billion rubles. A bunch of debts: did not pay for the coal, for oil. Absurd - the richest subject of the Russian Federation has tremendous debts! In fact, the region was rich, and remained. Over the past year, he added the most in the added value, that is, the most subjects of the Siberian district produced goods and services. Khakassia also worked well. And the sense? Governors are objectively unprofitable. The best conditions in the country are now created for loafers and mediocrity. It is profitable to do nothing. It is profitable to pretend to be poor: the poorer you are, the more you will be given from the center. They get a halt and give it. - Nevertheless, in your republic, 60 percent of enterprises work with profit. Why the aluminum factory is not in decline - this is understandable. How did the mines raise? Used government tranches? - I have not seen any trenches in the eye. Apparently, they all went to other goals. According to my data, out of 106 mines, which are closed in Russia today, only one acted in a civilized way: they paid people. The rest simply covered. Our coal enterprises - Khakas -Call, the Montenegrin coal company (Chuk), the East Belsky incision - belonged to the aluminum concern for a long time. The MDM group was recently sold. They promise more profitable opportunities for the implementation of this coal, a more open policy in terms of paying income taxes. We are talking about 70 percent of the coal that is mined today in Khakassia. After all, how was it? For six months, they did not pay salaries, the Khakasskaya mine stood completely, the employees themselves plundered all the equipment. People did not work, but charged a salary. Now the mine is restored. The “Abakan” section works profitably. The section of the "steppe" - too ... all these enterprises went through the bankruptcy procedure. Although people objected: when a person is bad, he is ready to blame everyone! Of course, the Russian Bankruptcy Law is imperfect, but nevertheless we did not close the mines, did not flood them, as was done throughout the country ... Now the prospect is visible: with new owners, the industry will work. Two or three years - and we go by ten million tons. - The revived mines are fed by numerous villages in the vicinity of Abakan - she herself saw. What benefit does the coal industry bring to the republican budget? - From coal, we receive no more than 6 - 7 percent of the income to the budget. The main thing is the aluminum factory: more than 50 percent of taxes. There are reserves for replenishing our budget. The Russian legislation interferes. I mean property tax. The real cost of the same Sayano -Shushenskaya hydroelectric power station is billions, and the tax is paid very moderate. This is the trouble of all enterprises in the country. And there is no mechanism to revalize! - They say that the governors are unhappy with the recent increase in salaries to state employees declared by the government. What is the matter? - The government decided to increase the salary of 18 categories of the tariff grid, without fixing it with the transfer of finance to the regions. A clearly unexcounted decision has been made. They thought they would order us, and everything would be completed. Yes, we pay an increased salary, but we incur serious moral losses. For example, before we had 25 programs of socio-economic development, and this year we left seven ... forced to freeze investments: the construction of the Montenegrin hospital, clinics in Sayanogorsk, and schools in Balyks. The construction of the house of disabled people has been suspended. Conservation is a very conditional concept. This is the death of ... plundered equipment, building materials. There are scientifically substantiated norms: if the salary takes more than 40 percent of the budget, it is reinforcing it. And we already have 70 - 80 percent of money for a salary. The federal authorities must be responsible for their words. When Ms. Matvienko at one time famously announced an increase in salaries, everyone screamed - "Hurray!". But "Hurray" did not work. And the Ministry of Finance, if you want, do not want, I have to agree with this. But I do not want to agree. Because then we must resign. And I don’t want to leave either. Because everything is there "from one village." I think life will put everything in its place.
