Vladimir Putin decided on the candidate of the Governor of the Amur Region

Vladimir Putin finally submitted to the Amur Regional Council of People's Deputies his candidate for the post of governor of the region. It turned out to be Nikolai Kolesov, whose name appears in a letter to the head of state to the chairman of the Amur Regional Council Olegurkov, dated May 24.

The press service of the President of the Russian Federation, in turn, confirmed that in accordance with the Federal Law + 184-ФЗ dated 06.10.99 "On the general principles of the organization of legislative (representative) and executive bodies of state power of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation" such a letter was sent to the Amur Council of People's Deputies, Interfax reports.

Note that the former head of the region Leonid Korotkov was removed from the post on May 10, 2007. In the following days, the Amur Region "fever" from the unknown who will become the next head of the region, reports Amur. Info . At that stage of consultations about the possible candidates, the name of Kolesov in the forecasts of local politicians and political scientists never appeared.

On May 24, deputies of the local regional council and administration officials to no avail waited for the news from the federal center: the plenipotentiary of Kamil Ishakov did not come to a meeting of the regional council.

By law, the president had to decide on the new candidate of the governor until the end of the day on May 24th. However, this did not happen, which was outraged by local deputies the next day. “This is a violation of the federal law by President,” said deputy Yuri Kuznetsov. “So the government looks at lower ranks.” The deputy of the regional council Gennady Gamza also spoke out equally seditizedly seducted: "The law is violated in the Russian Federation. And the guarantor of the Constitution also violates the law." The parliamentarian Andrei Plutenko tried to calm the excitement. "The attitude is calm, the president is an employed person. And we work in a planned regime and, I think, wait for the solution," he said. “A difficult problem is to choose the one who will lead our area,” Speaker Oleg Turkov concluded ..

We add that they distracted the president from the obligation to choose the new governor of the Amur Region to determine the new chapters of the Krasnoyarsk Territory and the Omsk region. And in line there remains Kamchatka.

It is possible that it is precisely considerations of compliance with the letter of the law that explains that the presidential letter late for several days was dated all the same on May 24.
