Yevtushenkov offered Luzhkov a job in the "system"

The main owner of the AFC System Vladimir Yevtushenkov proposed to the ex-mayor of Moscow Yuri Luzhkov to work in the petrochemical unit of his investment holding.

“I made him such an offer, if he wants to work,” Yevtushenkov said on the air of the Echo Moskvy radio station during the Great Watch of the Vedomosti newspaper Vedomosti.
