Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Kirov Region Maria Gaidar leaves this post to go to study in the United States. The spokesman for the governor of the region Boris Vesnin specified Interfax that Gaidar is leaving the post since June 11 and her statement has already been signed by Nikita Belykh.
According to him, Maria "leaves for a year to study at Harvard", but after graduation in the United States, he plans to return to Russia. In its place, Gaidar recommended the head of the Department of Health Dmitry Matveev, RIA Novosti reports. “But the governor makes the decision on the appointment and agrees the legislative assembly,” Gaidar herself emphasized.
“Today I wrote a statement about the deputy chairman of the government of the Kirov region. Two and a half years that I worked here were special for me. The problems of the Kirov region became my own, and its inhabitants became very relatives,” writes Maria Gaidar on her blog on Wednesday.
According to her, while working in the Kirov government, she managed to do a lot, but now she is leaving for Harvard at Kennedy's school "to study under the program of Edward Mason, and I will receive what is called the mid-Career in Public Administration (MC/MPA)."
Maria Gaidar, the daughter of the famous Russian economist-reformer of the Yeltsin eraYegor Gaidar , served as deputy chairman of the Government of the Kirov region from July 23, 2009. In this position, she oversaw the work of the Regional Department of Health of the region, the Department of Social Development, the Department of the State Employment Service. Her father Yegor Gaidar died on December 16, 2009 at the 54th year of his life.
Recall that the son of the governor of the Kirov region Nikita Belykh is already studying abroad, in the UK, and this circumstance is very outraged by some State Duma deputies. Recently Belykh explained the situation with sending his son to study in England that many considered at least nonpatriotic.
“I did this, and I’m not going to report to anyone, there is no political background here. There is a father’s position here, who wishes his child good in terms of receiving education and upbringing, which he cannot give him for reasons. I did it - and before I did it, I wrote about it and explained all this publicly. After which a noisy campaign began, the deputies of the State Duma began to speak about it - they went to them about it. The ass, ”Belykh said.
Nikita Belykh is a former leader of the Union of Right Forces. From this post, he left after the decision of the ATP on the self -dissolution and the participation of some of its members in the Kremlin project "Just business". On December 8, 2008, Medvedev proposed the candidacy of the White for the post of Kirov governor. On December 18, the candidacy was approved by the regional legislative assembly.
Maria Gaidar was also previously part of the Union of Right Forces. When Nikita Belykh agreed to become the governor of the Kirov region, Gaidar was indignant: "Nikita Yuryevich sold his soul to the devil." However, this did not stop her from getting up to the governor’s adviser soon, and later become the deputy chairman of the regional government.
