Anatoly Chubais left the post of a special representative of the President of Russia on sustainable development issues and left the country. The departure is allegedly connected with the fighting of the Armed Forces of Russia in Ukraine. This was reported by Bloomberg with reference to two anonymous sources.
Sources of RBC said that Chubais, along with his wife Avdotya Smirnova, went to Istanbul. A friend of the official’s wife also confirmed that she is in Istanbul. According to one of the sources, Chubais "was going to return" to Russia.
66-year-old Anatoly Chubais was the first deputy chairman of the government, the Minister of Finance and the head of the presidential administration under the President Boris Yeltsin. He was one of the key figures and the ideologist of the privatization of Russian enterprises in the early 90s of the twentieth century.
On February 24, the Russian army entered the territory of Ukraine. This happened immediately after Vladimir Putin announced that he had decided to start the “special operation” in the Donbass after the request of the so -called “DPR” and “LPR”.
Many countries and large international companies have imposed sanctions against Moscow, turning around the programs of cooperation with Russia.
