The "reluctantly" Tkachev sent the mayor of Sochi. Now he will lead Olympstroy

The sensational resignation in the main project of the country: instead of the most experienced seeds of Weinstok, appointed personally by President Vladimir Putin, the Olympstroy Magorport will be headed by the mayor of Sochi Viktor Kolodyazhny. He was given the Order of the Hero of Labor of the Kuban in advance. The governor of the Krasnodar Territory Alexander Tkachev announced the resignation of the colodye "reluctantly", or, as he himself said, "creaking with his heart." “Sochi mayor switches to a more responsible work. He will lead the Olympstroy state corporation,” Tkachev said at the extraordinary session of the Sochi city assembly. Not a word was said about Weinstock. A little later, Prime Minister Zubkov confirmed the sensation: according to him, Vinenste himself resigned.

Olympstroy is a state corporation for the construction of Olympic facilities and the development of the city of Sochi as a city -Climatic resort. The corporation, before the sensational announcement of Tkachev, was headed by Semyon Weinstok, an experienced manager who worked for many years the president of the transneft pipeline monopoly and translated "to the Olympics" at a crucial moment - during the construction of the largest Pipeline of the VSU.

In September 2007, the resignation of the President of Transneft took place , about the possibility of which the Russian media wrote . After that, Russian President Vladimir Putin invited Semyon Weinstok to head the state corporation for preparations for the 2014 Olympics in Sochi. Weinstock agreed.

In March of this year, Weinstok calculated that the 2014 Olympics will cost taxpayers 3 times more than the initial estimate. So, the amount necessary for the creation of only transport infrastructure will amount to 316 billion rubles.

However, as previously reported, Olympstroy will spend 200 billion rubles on the construction of the Olympics. She was supposed to be responsible for the design, construction, reconstruction of sports and infrastructure facilities, including communication, energy supply, tourism and healthcare.

At the same time, not a word was mentioned in the media about the upcoming permutation in the Olympic State Corporation .

Semyon Weinstot headed Transneft in 1999. Before the arrival there since 1995, Semyon Weinstok was the general director of the "daughter" "Lukoil" - "Lukoil - Western Siberia". Under him, Transneft has turned into a strong company with a high credit rating and a multi -billion dollar turnover.

It is worth noting that from the post of Transneft’s head, Weinsteus went to a difficult moment for the company - during the construction of the VSO pipeline , as if sacrificing the Olympiad. Constantly, the current resignation looks doubly strange - the criticism of Weinstock has not been reported recently.

Zubkov confirmed: Weinstock left himself

The Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Viktor Zubkov signed on Thursday orders for the dismissal of the president of the Olympstroy state corporation Semyon Weinstok and on the appointment of the mayor of Sochi Viktor Kolodyazhny.

“The task that was assigned to Weinstock seeds, he fulfilled with honor, I want to thank it,” Zubkov said on Thursday during a meeting with Weinste and the Minister of Regional Development Dmitry Kozak.

Kozak said, in turn, that the president’s presentation on the awarding of Weinstock was prepared by the Order “For Merit to the Fatherland” for organizing the work of the state corporation.

In turn, Semyon Weinstok said that he was satisfied with the result of work as the head of the Olympstroy state corporation and leaves of his own free will. “I made the decision to leave this work on my own initiative,” he said, adding that he fully supports the candidacy of Viktor Kolodyazhny, who would replace him as the head of Olympstroy. Weinsteus also said that so far he had yet decided what he would do in the future.

Kozak: Change of the head of the Olympstroy state corporation is planned

The head of the Ministry of Regional Development Dmitry Kozak states that retired Semyon Weinstok from the post of head of the Olympstroy state corporation, there is nothing unexpected.

"This is a systematic replacement. Back in September, when a decision was made to appoint Semyon Mikhailovich Weinstok the head of the corporation, such an agreement was reached with him," Kozak said at a press conference in the White House on Thursday. “We had no problems related to the work of Semyon Mikhailovich,” he said.

According to Kozak, Weinstok asked him to relieve him of his post with the wording "in connection with his retirement." The minister noted that "not he (Weinste) asked for this corporation, but we agreed with him."

“He fulfilled his part of the agreement, came, reported and asked him to be replaced,” said the head of the Ministry of Regional Development. He recalled that Vainstok, still being the head of Transneft, “wrote a statement to be dismissed in connection with retirement”.

“Just on the day when he turned 60, there was such a request, appeal - for some time to work and try to establish the work of the Olympstroy state corporation,” Kozak explained.

Speaking about the appointment of the former mayor of Sochi Viktor Kolodyazhny, Kozak noted that "everything is also natural here, everything is clear." “We need an experienced successor of this work, and the person who is in the subject,” the minister explained. According to his assessment, just such a person.

Tkachev arrived in Sochi to take part in the meeting of the meeting, the deputies of which were to consider the statement of the head of Sochi. The decision was made unanimously. "The acting head of Sochi will be Vladimir Afanasenkov, Interfax reports.

Before his appointment, Afanasenkov served as deputy head of the administration of the Krasnodar Territory on the preparation of Sochi for the 2014 Olympic Games. He also worked at the Azov-Black Sea Directorate for the construction of roads and the Directorate for the implementation of the federal targeted program for the development of Sochi as a city-cubic resort.

“This person is distinguished by decency and performance. The administration of the region and the former mayor of Sochi are betting on it,” Tkachev said, representing the new head of the city.

According to the governor, without the leader-builder of Sochi it will not be possible to fulfill the tasks of preparing the city for the Olympics.

"More than ever, reluctantly, I support the college transition to a new position," Tkachev said. According to the governor, the college rating in Sochi as the mayor is more than 70%. "He is one of the best mayors in the history of Sochi, thanks to the collar of the city, he became the Olympic capital. The colony will enter the history of Sochi, since he is a fairly large political figure not only in the Krasnodar Territory, but also in the country," the governor emphasized.

In turn, the vice-governor of the Krasnodar Territory, Murat Ahejak, read out the order of the governor: "For high achievements and a great contribution to the preparation of the resort city to conduct elections as the Olympic capital, to award Viktor's college medal" Hero of Labor Kuban. "

Kolodyzhny applied to the city assembly of Sochi with a statement on the early termination of his authority of his own free will. The deputies approved the statement of Kolodyazhny unanimously. Presumably the election of the new mayor of Sochi will take place in October of this year.

Weinsteus and Organizing Committee "Sochi-2014" could not divide the territory

The Coordination Commission of the International Olympic Committee , which would arrive in the Olympic city on April 21, was decided to replace the key position to the first visit to Sochi. This unequivocally indicates the availability of serious problems in the preparatory organizational process, notes the "All Sport" .

It is no secret that Semyon Weinstok took a position on a number of fundamental issues, excellent, for example, from the position of the Sochi-2014 Organizing Committee , which, as previously reported, plans to receive $ 865 million from sponsors. In particular, this applies to the need to transfer the location of a number of Olympic objects - the sanitary -beobslane route and the freestyle park - compared to the application book.

Recall also that according to the statements of the protest campaign, the authorities of the Black Sea resort began to evict more than 4 thousand people to liberate the space for the Winter Olympic Games.

Modern Olympic Games are a business with a huge cash turnover, they bring huge income and the IOC and the organizers, MK notes. Revenues from their conduct in our time are significantly higher than the funds allocated for construction. They are consuming from the competition themselves-the sale of tickets and souvenirs, as well as from the funds of sponsor firms and, finally, from the funds received for the rights to television games.
