Aleksandr Zharov

Alexander Zharov is known thanks to the post of head of Roskomnadzor, which he held until 2020, which is not the only interesting fact in his biography. The man began his career in medicine, and eventually managed to become a prominent statesman and political figure.

Alexander Zharov was born on August 11, 1964 in Chelyabinsk, Russian by nationality. There is little information about his early years, biography and parents. After leaving school, the young man decided to devote himself to saving human lives. He entered the local medical institute, where he mastered the specialty of anesthesiologist-resuscitation specialist.

The following years, the guy worked by profession, in parallel collaborating with the Chelyabinsk Medical Institute as an assistant at the Department of Pathological Physiology. In 1997, Alexander decided to move to Moscow, where he got a job in the magazine "Family Doctor". He first served as a staff columnist and later became editor-in-chief. After that, the man began to delve deeper into the media sphere.

Already in 1998, Zharov took up the duties of an adviser to the chairman of RIA "Vesti" Alexei Volin. A year later, he began to cooperate with the Minister of Health of the Russian Federation Yuri Shevchenko, was a press secretary, was engaged in public relations. Later he held the post of assistant to the Prime Minister Mikhail Fradkov, worked in the Department of the Press Service of the Russian Government and the Ministry of Communications and Mass Media.

In parallel, Alexander Alexandrovich continued to build a career in medicine, led the Health and Life program. In 2004 he defended his Ph.D. thesis. However, 9 years later, the “Dissident” community questioned the honesty of awarding the title, since plagiarism was found in the work.

The details of the man's personal life were not disclosed. It is known that he is married and is a happy father of six children. According to CNews, the income of Zharov's wife is several times higher than his own: she is engaged in entrepreneurship.

The career of a statesman developed rapidly, and already in 2008 he was awarded the title of State Counselor of the Russian Federation of the 1st class. Shortly thereafter, he joined the board of directors of Channel One, and then received the post of head of the Roskomnadzor service, which made him famous.

Under Alexander Alexandrovich, the implementation of laws on the protection of children, the eradication of piracy on the Internet and the fight against insult to the authorities was actively carried out. The blocking of resources involved in the distribution of illegal substances and calling for suicide was carried out. A system of fines has also appeared for official media outlets that use foul language.

Not all users and resources were satisfied with the actions of the head of the service, many considered the blocking unreasonable. In an interview for Ekho Moskvy, Zharov said that his job is solely to monitor the implementation of the laws of the Russian Federation, and this does not pose a threat to honest sites that do not contain prohibited information.

During the conversation, the figure spoke about the specifics of the work of Roskomnadzor. He presented statistics, according to which the service was able to detect more than 6.5 thousand companies that illegally use user data. Also in 2019, 40 premieres that applied for anti-piracy protection were not made publicly available until the initial release.

The loudest scandal associated with the name of Alexander Alexandrovich as the head of Roskomnadzor was the blocking of the Telegram messenger. Since the head of the service refused to give the FSB access to accounts and correspondence, the owners of which were suspected of illegal actions, by a court order it was decided to block it on the territory of the Russian Federation.

When implementing the decision, news appeared about failures in the work of other resources, including Roskomnadzor, which the head of the service denied. It was not possible to achieve the final termination of the messenger's work, since it functions through blocking bypass programs.

In 2019, Aleksandr Aleksandrovich also oversaw the implementation of the new law "On Reliable Runet", the purpose of which is the uninterrupted functioning of the Russian segment even in the event of an emergency disconnection from foreign servers.

In March 2020, news emerged that Zharov was relieved of his post as head of Roskomnadzor at his own request. After being fired, the man did not remain unemployed for long. The very next day it became known that he was appointed CEO of Gazprom-Media instead of Dmitry Chernyshenko.

Rumors that Alexander Alexandrovich would head the holding appeared in the winter, but then he denied this information.
