Zurabov is no longer ambassador

By presidential decree of the post of ambassador to Ukraine, Mikhail Zurabov was released. Various sources report that in this way the head of state satisfied the numerous requests of Zurabov himself for his resignation. In particular, RIA News with reference to sources in the Russian Foreign Ministry writes that the first personal requests of Zurabov for resignation were voiced before Vladimir Putin immediately after the coup in Ukraine in February 2014 of the year.

Interlocutor RIA News offers his own interpretation of why Zurabov continued to remain at his post, despite the actually failed policy toward Ukraine:

However, his removal from office would have meant that Moscow would have completely lost the ambassador to Kiev. The new ambassador would not be able to take up his duties, since his candidacy is coordinated with the Ukrainian authorities, including with the parliament, which is impossible with the current radical anti-Russian attitude of the Ukrainian legislators.

According to the latest data, Mikhail Babich, who is the plenipotentiary of the president in the Volga Federal District, can replace Mikhail Zurabov as the Russian ambassador to Ukraine.

By the way, about federal districts ... By the decision of the President of Russia, the Crimean Federal District will become part of the Southern Federal District. Now in the Southern Federal District consists of eight regions: the Republic of Crimea, Adygea and Kalmykia, a federal city of Sevastopol, Krasnodar Territory, and Astrakhan, Volgograd and Rostov regions.

The post of plenipotentiary of the president in the SFD is occupied by Vladimir Ustinov.

Finally it happened! This "empty space" was removed from the ambassadors. Totally agree with you! After Zurabov, the blockage is complete, and the prosecutor’s office should follow on his heels for previous achievements. Not imprisoned, untouchable, they will probably be identified as an assistant or adviser to the Kremlin, or maybe to Serdyukov as a partner. ..... "However, his removal from office would mean that Moscow would have completely lost its ambassador in Kiev.

And what about the radical anti-Russian sentiments of the legislators have changed in favor of Russia!?!?

[Berkut24]

I think that in recent years, when nothing could be done in reality, such an "empty space" was absolutely necessary. And the fact that it was decided to replace him suggests that Russia is going over to the offensive in Ukraine. The procession of the Russian Orthodox Church throughout Ukraine is also confirmation of this. The situation is such that now neither the EU nor the US will stand up for their protégés.

The Southern Federal District was formed in May 2000. Initially, it included 13 subjects of the Russian Federation. After the secession of the North Caucasian Federal District from its composition in January 2010, their number dropped to six. Now, after unification with Crimea, it includes eight regions: the republics of Adygea, Kalmykia and Crimea; Volgograd, Astrakhan and Rostov regions; Krasnodar Territory and Sevastopol.

Russian senators, although they approved the candidacy of Mikhail Zurabov as ambassador of the Russian Federation to Ukraine, did not come to a consensus on the benefits of this appointment. Recognizing his experience in the government, they do not exclude that a certain reputation of the ex-minister may not be beneficial to diplomatic activities.
Zurabov was one of the main initiators of the reform scheme, which consisted in replacing social security benefits with cash payments. The so-called "monetization" is a very controversial issue. Amounts paid to retirees are not commensurate with the benefits. In the first few months of 2005, protests took place across the country. Later, a decision was made by the government, which eliminated the consequences of the reform.

Zurabov has been repeatedly accused by the media of lobbying for the interests of various insurance and medical companies.
Mikhail Zurabov was considered a strange choice as an ambassador to Ukraine. Political relations with Ukraine were considered outside the competence of Zurabov, since he had no diplomatic experience.

[Reptiloid]

I would like to know ----- who considered him a strange choice. And appointed, however, such a strange thing. Strange, amazing thoughts come to my reptiloid head. MAYBE he is where someone wants nothing to be done. That he would not do anything strange. HERE !!!!!.

So it was recalled after the coup. Then they returned, appointed a representative in the Contact Group for the Settlement of the Situation in the Donbass. Today, relations between our countries are so damaged that Moscow decided that there is nothing to lose and that the ambassador can be dispensed with. And, probably, for a long time, because it is unlikely that the current Ukrainian authorities will approve a new candidate, whoever he is. And Sergey Toropov, Foreign Ministry, was appointed temporary charge d'affaires of Russia in Ukraine.

Aleksandr Albertovich Veshnyakov. Since March 1994, he worked in the Central Election Commission of the Russian Federation. March 21, 1995 was elected Secretary of the Central Election Commission of the Russian Federation. Since February 10, 1999 - member of the Central Election Commission of the Russian Federation of a new composition. On March 24, 1999, he was elected Chairman of the Central Election Commission of the Russian Federation of a new composition. Since August 2000, he was the head of the Working Group formed by order of the President of Russia to prepare proposals for improving the legislation on elections. On March 26, 2003, he was re-elected head of the CEC of Russia. On January 11, 2008 he was appointed Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Russian Federation to Latvia.

On February 12, 2008, he assumed the post of Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Russian Federation to Latvia. And silence. A holy place does not exist.

It is he, Zurabov, who is responsible for the material and moral losses suffered by Russian citizens during his career as Minister of Health and Social Development.
And he did not leave anything good about himself as the ambassador of the Russian Federation to Ukraine. Zurabov sat as ambassador in Kiev through the entire "Yanukovych era", stupidly sat through the entire Maidan, then sat under Poroshenko (there were even rumors that he was Poroshenko's personal friend), and only now he is leaving.
Zurabov did not see the imminent danger of Ukraine’s banderization, did not warn Russia, did not save anything, failed everything.
I would like to hope that someday he will nevertheless be responsible for this.
And after that - Sergey Toropov was appointed temporary charge d'affaires of Russia in Ukraine.

Today (not mine):
1. Menyailo was removed from his post as governor of Sevastopol and sent as plenipotentiary to Siberia http://sevastopol.su/news.php?id=88994. Instead, Deputy Minister of Industry of the Russian Federation Ovsyannikov will temporarily rule the city. Quite an unexpected step, because it seemed that Menyailo would definitely sit out before the elections. But nonetheless. Thus, the local opposition to the governor indirectly achieved its goal - Menyailo left and the "battlefield" formally remained with Chaly's group. In my opinion, the upcoming changes will be in every way better than the permanent conflict between Menyailo and Chaly, which has hampered the adequate development of the city for almost 2 years. Chaly commended Menyailo's replacement and said that he had known Ovsyannikov since 2015.
2. The Crimean and Southern Federal Districts are combined into simply the Southern Federal District. Accordingly, the post occupied by the Belaventsev envoy http://sevastopol.su/news.php?id=88996 disappeared. This probably demonstrates that the stage of integration of Crimea into the Russian Federation is completed.
3. The ambassador of the Russian Federation to Ukraine Zurabov was removed https://lenta.ru/news/2016/07/28/posol/. Here you can only say - finally and why for so long. Who will be in his place is not yet clear. So far, the name of the plenipotentiary in the Volga Federal District of Babich is called. Sergey Toropov has been appointed Charge d'Affaires of the Russian Federation in Ukraine http://www.gazeta.ru/politics/news/2016/07/28/n_8931995.shtml
4. The chief customs officer of the Russian Federation Belyaninov has been dismissed http://www.bbc.com/russian/news-36913689, although yesterday the FCS showed confidence that the former boss is still hoo. Apparently, the "accumulation" turned out to be not quite "accumulation" and it did not work out to "keep the good" with impunity. Instead, the FCS will be ruled by FSB Bulavin.
5. The governor of the Kirov region Nikita Belykh has been removed - "due to the loss of confidence" http://www.rbc.ru/politics/28/07/2016/5799dd999a794778f6f54322. There White and the road. The government of the Kirov region has resigned.
6. Russia indirectly reacted to the US proposals for an armistice in Syria - 3 corridors for refugees will be created from surrounded Aleppo + Assad offered the militants an amnesty http://kommersant.ru/doc/3049323 if they dumped from the city or surrender their weapons. Quite a logical attempt to get by with little blood during the storming of the city itself and an unequivocal proposal to the militants and their owners - hand over Aleppo. August near Aleppo promises to be hot. In the meantime, the defense of the Greens in Bani Zeid is disintegrating https://i.imgur.com/wQ2DByS.jpg (map in HD), part of the militants fled through a narrow neck from Aleppo https://pbs.twimg.com/media/ Cocoq7lVYAASj47.jpg
7. The Primorsky court upheld the jury's decision and acquitted the “Primorsky partisans” http://www.novorosinform.org/news/57890 To be honest, this was completely unexpected. The prosecutor's office will appeal.

UPD:
8. The governors of the Yaroslavl and Kaliningrad regions were dismissed from their posts. In the Yaroslavl region, instead of Yastrebov, who left "of his own free will," Mironov, the former deputy head of the RF Ministry of Internal Affairs, was installed http://www.interfax.ru/russia/520919. Instead of the Governor of the Kaliningrad Region, Tsukanov, who left as plenipotentiary, and became Plenipotentiary in the Northwestern Federal District, the region will be ruled by the head of the local FSB Zinichev http://www.interfax.ru/russia/520915.
9. Turkey is ready, together with Russia, to jointly fight the Caliphate and "An-Nusra" http://kommersant.ru/doc/3049296, whose militants have recently entered the territory of Syria from the territory of Turkey. What a twist. As part of the "fight for democracy" in Turkey, 131 media outlets were also closed.
10. The Olympic team today, thanks to a recent decision by the IOC http://www.segodnia.ru/content/178065, drove to the Olympics in Brazil http://tass.ru/sport/3491817. More than anything else, it is a pity, of course, to Isinbayev, who really really wanted to speak. She will not be the standard bearer.

With the current lawlessness and Russophobia in Ukraine, whoever you do not put there as an ambassador will not be of any benefit. Yes, and would not be allowed to plant, so Zurabov, who had been appointed since Yanukovych times, was sitting there.

Why has there been no flag or coat of arms over diplomatic buildings lately? Shame ! For Andrey Zet.

[X Y Z]

According to the latest data, Mikhail Babich, who is the plenipotentiary of the president in the Volga Federal District, can replace Mikhail Zurabov as the Russian ambassador to Ukraine.

What is this for? Or is the diplomat now no longer a profession and does any high-ranking official travel as ambassador without any preparation?

Now this "ambassador" will be sent to the geyropu, experience with the urine-ruin is large. Such people are not sent to retirement.

Oh, I suppose, it’s horrible how this person yearns for the Pension Fund. Surely unbearably longing.
Less invertebrates would be necessary for us, so the greyhounds in some organisms would radically decrease.

Former worthless functionaries are sent into exile by ambassadors to the CIS countries, and the Foreign Ministry, as a rule, to the more important European and overseas states, well, Middle Eastern and African.

Finally they sent an ambassador, and how long he sailed in the hole.

[dumpy15]

A charge d'affaires to Kiev had to be appointed immediately after the coup in February 2014, or at least in July 2014 after the attack on the Russian embassy. The second question: the appropriateness of recognizing the legitimacy of the election of the President of Ukraine in May 2014. One can be sure that the United States would never have recognized even the fact that elections were held in a similar situation as legitimate.

Game Over!!!!!!!

[Khariton]

Zhirinovsky would be an ambassador there .... He would have them there .... showed "Kuz'kina's mother" And Zurabov is not fish, not meat ... A military and linguistic ambassador is needed there!

And the liberals have a holiday! They are very happy about the disbandment of the Crimean Federal District. They piled up a mountain of golden bricks in the liberal media, they believe that Putin is preparing to merge Crimea back to Ukraine

[Old Siberian]

Yes, he is an ambassador far, far .....

[mamont5]

Apparently, Porosenko is coming to an end, because personal ties with him were the only plus of Zurabov. But he failed to take advantage of them ...

[Observer2014]

I don’t understand how you can appoint a former minister of health as an ambassador! But read this "After that, Mikhail Yuryevich's career was associated with the structures of Adamov's department for a long time. In 1988, he became chairman of the board of directors of Konversbank. Since 1992, Zurabov was the head of the MAKS insurance company for six years. MIKHAIL ZURABOV - MINISTER OF HEALTH In 1998, Mikhail Yuryevich was invited to take the position of Boris Yeltsin's adviser on social issues. A year later he headed the board of the Pension Fund of the country. For five years. He held the next position of a politician for three years. He was appointed Minister of Health and Social Development. He served as a politician until September 2007. After him, Tatiana Golikova took this position. "

[g1v2]

Everything is simple. Zurabov used to have a joint business with Poroshenko. They are old roots around 2010. Therefore, they appointed to directly rub with Petya.

[Larra anathema]

Zurabov was a medical nightmare. And the patients too ... Zurabov, Fursenko and Serdyukov are three "heroes" - the grave-digger of "our everything" - education, healthcare and defense.
He was recalled from Ukraine, apparently, when it turned out that there was practically nothing to destroy there.

[svp67]

By the decree of the President of the Russian Federation, Mikhail Zurabov was relieved of the post of ambassador to Ukraine. By the decree of the President of the Russian Federation, Mikhail Zurabov was relieved of the post of ambassador to Ukraine. By the decree of the President of the Russian Federation, Mikhail Zurabov was relieved of his post.

So I would listen and listen ...

Various sources report that in this way the head of state satisfied the numerous requests of Zurabov himself for his resignation.

Why didn’t they kick him out? Do not confuse their wool with public. God grant that the new ambassador would defend Russia's interests much better. And the flag with the emblem of Russia was finally returned to the Russian Embassy in Kiev.

[vfqjh]

Maybe I'm wrong, but if we had less of such ministers - diplomats. How do you want to believe that someday at the helm of the economy and state policy will be worthy, not elected. There are people whom I can offend with these words, but, believe me, there are very few of them.

[Dmitry Potapov]

In short, this was not an ambassador, so he was sent. In general, the humiliation of Ukraine is worse than assigning this donut hole to the post of ambassador in my opinion is difficult to come up with.

[0895055116]

Finally, IT HAS DONE - THIS MISSION in the rank of ambassador has been removed from office! It had long been necessary to remove it a long time ago, not later than AUTUMN 2013 - it could be ANOTHER, MORE SMART AND DEDICATED TO THE INTERESTS OF RUSSIA AMBASSADING IF IT WAS NOT PREVENTED, WOULD LIKE TO REDUCE THE DAMAGE THAT RUSSIA AND Ukraine BORNED FROM BANDER! And this misunderstanding in the rank of ambassador HAS MUCH STRENGTHENED THE DAMAGE, THAN WOULD ATTEMPT TO PREVENT IT!

[Fonmeg]

The decision, which was made yesterday! To say that Zurab was not an ambassador in the deep understanding of this post is to say nothing. Worthless little man! From that cohort of scoundrels!

Putin, that way, in the morning on First and Russia-1, will announce - well, like, guys, Crimea is back to Ukrainians ... Why are these miserables puffing out there? Rather, he will deport dill to Poland. And it's better to go to the Alpha Centauri area, so that they don't get it about the xhaz and "discounts".

[Larra anathema]

Well, on the "Snob" hoping for a sensible thought, someone cut through. They say that he finally included the Darkest Crimea in Russia, soldered it with the Southern Federal District, so that there were fewer reasons to shout about the occupation.
But the "bright head" immediately came to her senses and suffered a funny nonsense that all this was (sic!) In order to exterminate Crimea not locally, but together with the entire Southern Federal District.

You ought to “stop reading liberal newspapers” long ago, but how can you refuse when it's so funny?

Well, usually in these cases they say that the photographer was paid little
I think every photographer "admitted to the body" has a shot for every occasion. The main thing is when will they come in handy?

Still, there is some movement in the Foreign Ministry. One is no longer an ambassador, etc.
It is a pity that the other dirty trick is still a "journalist", "politician", raw foodist, apple-apple, chess player, etc. etc.
And it would be fun to learn in these hot July days that, for example, one bearded reptile, who scolded Russia and its people all her life from the pages of a Moscow "youth" newspaper, is no longer a journalist. Alas, this is not real! Although, if our Foreign Ministry is changing, maybe nothing lasts forever under the moon!
And we must remember: a wounded beast is doubly dangerous!
