Sergey Sobyanin

Sergei Sobyanin is a Russian statesman and politician who broke into politics from the working class. Thanks to his professionalism, tough character and hard work, in 2010 he was elected mayor of Moscow, in 2018 he was re-elected to this post again. Prior to the post of mayor of the capital of Russia, he was Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation, and before that he headed the administration of President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin.

The attitude to the activities of an official among colleagues and the population is ambiguous - some consider him to be a statesman and a computer person capable of performing difficult work. Others, representatives of the opposition movement, constantly criticize Sergei Semenovich, accusing him of fraud and corruption.

Sergey Sobyanin was born on June 21, 1958 in the Tyumen region, in the village of Nyaksimvol. The zodiac sign is Gemini. Father Semyon Fedorovich worked as chairman of the village council, and later became the director of the creamery. Mother Antonina Nikolaevna was an economist and worked as an accountant under the guidance of her husband, first in the village council, and then at the creamery. The future mayor of Moscow was the youngest child in the family; he has two older sisters, Natalya and Lyudmila.

There is no unequivocal answer to the question of who Sergei Sobyanin is by nationality. Official data says that his male ancestors were Ural Cossacks. In his autobiography for the election commission for the post of governor of the Tyumen region, Sobyanin called himself Russian and denied the information that he was a representative of the Mansi people, as described in some reference books and encyclopedias.

The childhood of Sergei Sobyanin was no different from other children. He was a diligent student and child, successfully graduated from Berezovskaya secondary school and in 1975 moved to Kostroma, where he entered to study at the local Technological Institute. In 1980, having received a red diploma in mechanical engineering, he immediately got into the working ranks and, by assignment, worked as an engineer at the Kostroma plant for the production of woodworking machines.

Later he decided to expand his higher education and entered the correspondence department of the Ulyanovsk branch of the All-Union Correspondence Law Institute. In 1989, Sergei Semenovich received a law degree, and 10 years later he defended his thesis and received the degree of candidate of legal sciences.

The future Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation got into politics from the Komsomol organization of the Chelyabinsk Pipe-Rolling Plant, where he worked as a workshop foreman. In 1982, the biography of Sergei Sobyanin received a political direction, and he became the head of the organizational department of the Leninsky District Committee of the Komsomol of Chelyabinsk. After 2 years, he was sent to the city of Kogalym, where he first took the position of head of housing and communal services, and later became the head of the city's tax inspection.

Since 1991, the career of Sergei Semenovich began to rapidly gain momentum - first he was appointed head of the Kogalym administration, and 2 years later he became the first deputy head of the Khanty-Mansiysk district. This post opened the way for Sobyanin to the Khanty-Mansiysk District Duma, which he headed in 1996.

In 2001, the future mayor of the capital of Russia was elected governor of the Tyumen region, and a few months after his appointment he received membership in the supreme council of the all-Russian party "United Russia". In 2005, Sergei Sobyanin got into the administration of the President of Russia and was appointed head. Therefore, Sergei Semenovich moved to Moscow and relinquished his governor's duties.

His political career in the capital also developed rapidly - in 2006 he is a member of the Commission for Military-Technical Cooperation, in 2008 he leads the election campaign of former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, and in 2009 he becomes the head of the Board of Directors of Channel One.

After Medvedev's victory in the presidential election, Sergei Semenovich receives the post of Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation and becomes the head of the government headed by Vladimir Putin, as well as a member of the Commission for Economic Development of the Russian Federation and is a member of the Skolkovo Board of Trustees.

In the fall of 2010, after the resignation of the former mayor of the capital, Yuri Luzhkov, Sergei Sobyanin became one of four candidates for the post of mayor of the capital from the "United Russia". After he was approved as mayor of Moscow, the powers of deputy prime minister of the Russian Federation were removed from him, and Sergei Semyonovich immediately began to solve the problems of the city, which, in his opinion, consisted of traffic jams and corruption.

A year later, Sergei Sobyanin's achievements as mayor of Moscow were appreciated by his colleagues and the country's leadership. He managed to stop the destruction of historical Moscow, to organize the fight against organized crime and illegal trade, to achieve the development of public transport, to ensure the transparency of the city's budget, to modernize the city's education and healthcare systems.

In 2012, after Medvedev adopted the law on the return of direct elections of regional heads, Sergei Sobyanin resigned and decided to run for mayor of the city in the status of a self-nominated candidate. Oppositionist Alexei Navalny became his main competitor in this struggle. The man said that Sergei Semenovich was illegally participating in the upcoming elections, to which the Moscow City Electoral Commission made an official statement that the registration of the candidate for the post of mayor of the capital Sergei Sobyanin was carried out in full compliance with the legislation of the Russian Federation.

On September 8, 2013 Sergei Semenovich was re-elected to the post of mayor of Moscow in the first round of voting. Sobyanin received more than 51% of the vote, and his main rival, Alexei Navalny, received support from 27% of the population.

As mayor, Sobyanin takes care of the restoration of architectural monuments. The preservation of cultural heritage, according to Sergei Semenovich, is one of the priority areas in the work of the Moscow mayor's office. He noted that under his leadership, in the fall of 2015, 6 hundred objects, 4 thousand facades of buildings of historical importance were restored and about 200 buildings that were previously in the demolition plan were preserved. Under Sobyanin, the procedure for recognizing buildings of historical importance as cultural and architectural monuments was simplified.

However, the opposition forces believe that under Sobyanin, the practice continued, for which Yuri Luzhkov was criticized. It's about the destruction of historic buildings in order to build new ones. In particular, according to the coordinator of the Arkhnadzor movement Rustam Rakhmatullin, with the coming to power of Sobyanin and his team, the attitude towards the monuments changed at the level of declarations. Rakhmatullin linked the decrease in the level of construction activity in the center of the city with “many years of public demand” and the outflow of money due to the crisis.

In early 2016, the mayor of the city authorized the demolition of the so-called “samostroy” located near metro stations. In winter, workers demolished over 100 trade pavilions in one night. The press dubbed this event "The Night of Long Buckets." There were some doubts about the legitimacy of the actions of the Moscow authorities. To this Sobyanin remarked that "truth, heritage and the history of the country are not sold in Russia."

Alexei Navalny, a former competitor of Sobyanin, at the beginning of 2017 accused the mayor of the city of over-spending on the purchase of jewelry for Moscow streets. According to Navalny's data, the Moscow government purchased jewelry in the amount of 2,241,630 rubles, while the price from the supplier was equal to 475,000. A few days later, Sobyanin proposed to remove the city's public procurement data from the federal government procurement portal, which drew criticism from lawyers of the Anti-Corruption Foundation.

The renovation of the capital's housing stock continues in 2017. Part of the renovation is the Khrushchev demolition program, which has raised concerns among the residents of these houses. Sobyanin assured that only those houses, more than half of which will vote for relocation, will be demolished. In an interview in 2016, when asked about permanent construction and about the sounds of renovation, which are heard even in the city hall, Sobyanin replied: "These sounds are pleasant for me." According to the mayor, they say that the city is developing, there is movement, there is no stagnation.

Also in the spring, the mayor approved the launch of a new project called "Moscow Doctor". Its essence lies in the assignment of such a title to specialists who will be able to prove that their qualifications, experience and professional level are higher than the basic requirements and meet international standards.

The personal life of Sergei Sobyanin remained stable and, at first glance, happy until 2014, when the mayor of Moscow announced his divorce from his wife Irina Rubinchik. With the support of his wife, Sergey Semenovich went through a career path and lived in marriage for 28 years. The reason for the divorce of the mayor of Moscow from his wife is unknown - he asked not to interfere in his personal life, noting that they parted on a good note and maintain friendly relations.

Rumor has it that the reason for the separation of the spouses lies in the relationship between Sergei Semenovich and his colleague Anastasia Rakova. She, at a young age in the late 90s, began working with Sobyanin and walked with him, as an assistant, the path from the head of the Khanty-Mansiysk Duma to the mayor of the capital. Dense teamwork and gave rise to talk that they are connected not only by working relations. They say that the father of Rakova's daughter, born in 2010, is Sergei Sobyanin.

Sobyanin has children from a marriage with Irina - Anna and Olga, born in 1986 and 1997, respectively. The eldest daughter of the mayor of Moscow is a creative person, she graduated from the children's art school of Khanty-Mansiysk, and after that she received a higher education at the St. A. L. Stieglitz. She married businessman Alexander Ershov, a resident of the cultural capital of Russia. Less is known about the youngest daughter of Sergei Sobyanin, Olga. She lives in Moscow, studied in a regular school, showed interest in making music and drawing.

According to official data, Sergey Sobyanin's income for 2017 amounted to 6 million 531 thousand 129 rubles. This is 75 thousand rubles. more than in 2016. Thus, his salary is about 550 thousand rubles. per month. At the same time, he owns a 26-meter garage, but does not own a car. Also, the mayor of Moscow has an apartment of 308 square meters in free use.

In 2013, a scandal erupted around this apartment and his youngest daughter. All the same Alexei Navalny published an investigation in which he said that these elite apartments, located in the center of Moscow, belonged at that time to his underage daughter Olga. The approximate cost of such a property is 173 million rubles. Judging by the politician's declarations, this price exceeds Sobyanin's possible income for 10 years by more than 6 times.

Sergei Sobyanin is a big fan of literature and classical music, but his main hobby is hunting. As the mayor of Moscow himself admits, he first went out to the taiga as a 15-year-old boy, and since then he has become so imbued with this that hunting has become one of his favorite forms of recreation. Going out hunting, Sobyanin prefers to personally drive a jeep or snowmobile.

The man tries to adhere to a healthy lifestyle. He does not smoke, prefers wine to vodka - if not on the hunt, but now there is no free time for the once beloved basketball and volleyball. Nevertheless, for his age (in 2018, Sergei Semenovich turned 60) looks great. With a height of 175 cm, its weight is about 73 kg.

In mid-June 2018, in the center of Moscow, on Pokrovka, in the Central House of Entrepreneur, the election headquarters of Sergei Sobyanin was opened. On May 26, he announced his intention to take part in the mayoral elections in Moscow at the celebration of the birthday of the Active Citizen project in Gorky Park.

In addition to Sergei Semenovich, four more candidates were contenders for the post of mayor of the capital - the head of the Tagansky municipal district, Ilya Sviridov (from Fair Russia), State Duma deputy Mikhail Degtyarev (from the Liberal Democratic Party), former State Duma deputy Vadim Kumin (from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation), as well as a non-partisan businessman Mikhail Balakin.

On September 9, 2018, Sergei Sobyanin won the victory and recognition of the residents of the capital in the Moscow mayoral elections. According to the exit poll, 70.17% of Moscow's population voted for it.

The current mayor has done a lot for Moscow, but he has a lot of unrealized projects, of which, in fact, his election program consisted. He plans to create 160 km of new lines and 79 metro stations by 2020, as well as organize conditions for the convenient movement of pedestrians and motorists around the city. The program of renovation and improvement of the capital will continue.

Sobyanin has an official website on which fresh Moscow news is published with enviable frequency and efficiency. Sergei Semenovich has his own official account on Instagram, where new photos also regularly appear. In 2015, it was officially confirmed that the account was real and that the mayor of the city would personally manage it. The head of Moscow is also present on Twitter.
