Name: Tsybulsky Alexander Vitalievich. Date of birth: September 15, 1979. Place of birth: Moscow, USSR. Position: Acting Governor of the Nenets Autonomous Okrug

Childhood and early career

Little is known about the current acting governor of the Nenets Autonomous Okrug. He was born on July 15, 1979 in the capital of the USSR, there is no information about his parents in open sources.

Initially, Alexander made a military career - from 1996 to 2005 he served in the army, studied at the Military University of the Ministry of Defense. This is one of the oldest military educational institutions, in 2014 the university celebrated its centenary. They train specialists in five areas - military-humanitarian, military-legal, military-philological, military-conductor and military-financial.

What exactly the future politician preferred is unknown. And the service in the army turned out to be short-lived - in 2006, a military specialist graduated from the Moscow Institute of International Business and began working in the Department of Foreign Economic Relations of the Ministry of Economic Development. The study, however, did not end there - in 2014, Alexander Vitalyevich was trained under the Master of Business Administration program at the Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration under the President of Russia.

For the development of territories

The career of Alexander Tsybulsky in the Russian government was quite successful. From the Ministry of Economic Development, he moved to the department of international cooperation of the government apparatus, held various positions in the Ministry of Regional Development. In 2013, he moved to the Ministry of Economic Development, where he began working as an assistant to the minister and in just two years he advanced to the post of deputy head of the department. First - Ulyukaev, after his arrest - Oreshkin.

Throughout his activity, the main area of ​​interest remained practically unchanged - international relations, the development of economic cooperation with other countries, and territorial development.

As a deputy minister, among other things, Tsybulsky oversaw the development of all kinds of territories with a special status - SEZs, territories of advanced socio-economic development, single-industry towns. He was also responsible for the socio-economic development of the Arctic territories. Perhaps this is what played a role when a decisive turn took place in the career of Alexander Vitalievich.

Crimean trace

As Kommersant wrote, one of the brightest pages in the biography of Alexander Tsybulsky is connected with the Ukrainian events, as a result of which Crimea became part of Russian Federation. Tsybulsky participated in negotiations with Brussels and Kiev, as a result of which the entry into force of the economic part of the association agreement between Ukraine and the European Union was postponed.

This is what caused the mass protests in Kyiv. As a result, the President of the country Viktor Yanukovych fled, Ukraine was headed by Petro Poroshenko, and Oleksiy Tsybulsky received a new direction - he headed working group for the integration of Crimea and Sevastopol and oversaw the socio-economic development of new Russian regions.

After the arrest of Ulyukaev, some people predicted Tsybulsky to be a minister, but it did not work out. And he is also called a student of Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Kozak - Alexander Vitalyevich was a member of the commissions under his leadership and participated in the development of a regional development strategy.

Two decrees with a difference of a year

On October 19, 2016, the President of the Russian Federation signed a decree appointing Alexander Tsybulsky, Deputy Minister of Economic Development, "the official representative of the President of the Russian Federation when the chambers of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation are considering the issue of ratifying Protocol No. associations of cooperation (EvROS), dated November 16, 2009, signed on behalf of the Russian Federation in Strasbourg on June 8, 2012”.

A year later, on September 28, 2017, Vladimir Putin appointed Alexander Tsybulsky Acting Governor of the Nenets Autonomous Okrug. A native Muscovite went to the Far North.

Surprise for northerners

The “gubernatopad”, as a result of which the deputy minister actually headed the rural area, as one of the political scientists put it, took place last autumn. According to Kommersant's information from a source close to the presidential administration, the selection of candidates went through the personnel department of the Kremlin with the participation of specialists from the Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration.

Political scientists were surprised by Tsybulsky's appointment. The head of the Political Expert Group, Konstantin Kalachev, noted that Tsybulsky's predecessor, Igor Koshin, was extremely unpopular in the region due to the course towards optimizing social spending, but specifically noted that he did not think that the previous governor did not suit the management of Rosneft in any way. ". (It is with this oil giant that the appointment of Tsybulsky to the NAO is sometimes associated. In the telegram channels, discussing the event, it was suggested that the acting head of the region would represent the interests of Rosneft - the Pechora LNG project and other offshore initiatives). And he added - they say, in the Nenets Autonomous Okrug "everyone knows everyone." As it turned out, not everyone - at least, Tsybulsky turned out to be a surprise for the local elite.

Another political scientist, Alexander Kynev, admitted that what he saw in the public field does not stand up to criticism, and called the appointment of Tsybulsky a exile. However, he could not name the reasons for it.

Another version is that the Nenets Okrug can be merged with the Arkhangelsk Region. However, many experts consider this unlikely. The prospect of a possible unification in the NAO has always been perceived extremely negatively, and it is unlikely that a native Muscovite will be able to convince the northerners. He simply will not find arguments that would be accepted by the other side. The difference in mentality.

About personal

In the column "personal life" of the current head of the NAO, you can safely put a dash. That is, he certainly has it - only so far there is no verified information about it in the public space. Looks like he's married. Looks like two kids. But in official biography this information is missing. Just as there are no traces of Mrs. Tsybulskaya in the income declaration, which, being a deputy minister, Alexander Vitalyevich dutifully filed. The official owns an apartment and Toyota, another apartment in use. In 2016, he earned almost 6.8 million rubles.

Tsybulsky cannot be called an active user of social networks. Recently, however, there was a curious incident. At the meeting, the head of the region asked one of the officials whether he had complied with the order given to ... Vkontakte. And he urged to be more attentive to his pages in social networks and get yourself the same ones - to communicate with the residents of the district. Modern means of communication should be used in order to more quickly respond to emerging issues, and not to collect meetings on any occasion.

Everything that is published in the accounts of the head of the region is official, Tsybulsky emphasized.

According to the official portal government agencies authorities of the Nenets Autonomous Okrug, the acting governor has two accounts - on VKontakte and on Instagram. However, it is apparently useless to look for photographs of his wife, children, friends there. Tsybulsky's character is not the same.

Or maybe it's not in character, but in professional features. In the telegram channel about regional politics with an emphasis on gubernatorial elections, “16 Negroes” briefly commented on the appointment of Tsybulsky in the NAO: “In the NAO Tsybulsky. Scout. Then in Putin's government."

True, under New Year the acting governor changed his usual secrecy and told everyone interested that he had family pet. My name is Khalifa.

Varangian in the outback

The Nenets Autonomous Okrug is, of course, a very peculiar region. Geographically, it is autonomous in the most literal sense of the word - it can only be reached by plane. The climate is harsh, the infrastructure is not developed. Actually, the NAO now lives off oil. When the price of "black gold" began to fall, problems began.

And they really don’t like the “Varangians” there - people from the outside. These are just people like Tsybulsky, who is unlikely to have been to the Far North at least once before the appointment of the acting governor and certainly did not live there permanently.

Now the former deputy minister is actively mastering the science of governorship in that part that is hardly familiar to him from his previous activities. He announced the Year of Reindeer Husbandry in the Nenets Autonomous Okrug, presents awards, meets with veterans, and even dances around the Christmas tree. Perhaps he will be able to settle down in a new place. Unless, of course, he wants to. Nevertheless, the Far North is a harsh and peculiar place. Not everyone will survive.

Tsybulsky Alexander Vitalievich (born July 15, 1979, Moscow, Russia) is a former Deputy Minister of Economic Development. On September 28, 2017, he was appointed Acting Governor of the Nenets Autonomous Okrug (NAO).

Yesterday, as Kommersant announced, the head of the Nenets Autonomous Okrug (NAO), Igor Koshin, resigned, becoming the third governor to be fired this week. He himself explained this decision by "transition to a new job." Deputy head of the Ministry of Economy Alexander Tsybulsky has been appointed acting head of the NAO. A source in the presidential administration (AP) explained to Kommersant that when choosing regions to replace governors, a number of factors were taken into account, in particular the socio-economic situation in the region. A number of governors are in line for resignations.

The fourth day of gubernatorial resignations passed, unlike the previous day (see Kommersant on September 28), without surprises. In the middle of the day, according to the already established practice, a presidential decree appeared on the resignation of the head of the NAO, Igor Koshin. Only after that, and not before the decree, as the head Krasnoyarsk Territory Viktor Tolokonsky, Mr. Koshin spoke to the staff of the district administration and local deputies. He explained his resignation by “moving to a new place of work,” which, however, he did not name. Mr. Koshin admitted that many of his reforms were "painful due to the fact that they were superimposed on the economic crisis, when budget revenues fell by a third." “When I became governor, the oil market was already in a fever, and I was at a crossroads: to continue the budget distributions, which will soon end, or to change the system, making it, if not independent of oil, then at least resistant to fluctuations in its cost. I chose the second path and have no regrets,” he stressed.

Igor Koshin was appointed acting head in 2014, after which he received 76.7% of the vote in the elections. Prior to that, his career was also associated with the NAO. He was repeatedly elected to the district parliament, was its speaker, represented the region in the Federation Council.

Valery Chuprov, co-chairman of the regional headquarters of the ONF in the Nenets Autonomous Okrug, explained to Kommersant that Igor Koshin "carried out the necessary transformations, but did not clearly calculate the social consequences." According to the head of the district committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Alexander Sablin, under Igor Koshin, "part of the powers were transferred from the level of municipalities to the district level, in addition, social support measures were reduced." “As a result, there was a low turnout in the municipal elections. But in 25 years, seven governors have already changed in the district, which means that the point is not in personalities, but in the system of power,” the communist concluded.

The president-appointed acting head Alexander Tsybulsky was greeted with restraint in the district. Mr. Sablin told Kommersant that he "does not know this person, and it is not very clear what prompted the president to make such a decision." Deputy of the State Duma from the Nenets Autonomous District Sergey Kotkin expressed the hope that "the interim will continue the projects of the predecessor." A former high-ranking official who worked in the Nenets Okrug noted that "after "his" Koshin, the Okrug received a registered Muscovite." Mr. Tsybulsky himself said yesterday that he would go to the Nenets Autonomous Okrug "in the near future" and his "first task is to get to know the region."

Oleksandr Tsybulsky, prior to his appointment to the Nenets Autonomous Okrug, served as deputy head of the Ministry of Economy (he has worked in the department since 2006). In reality, his career began in the now abolished Ministry of Regional Development, where he moved up to the director of the departments of international cooperation and sectoral programs. In 2013, the new minister Igor Slyunyaev did not find common language with the ministry team, and key personnel began to leave the department. Mr. Tsybulsky returned to the Ministry of Economy as an assistant to the minister, later he headed the department for interaction with the bodies of the Customs Union and economic cooperation with the CIS countries. He participated in negotiations with Brussels and Kiev, which resulted in the postponement of the entry into force of the economic part of the association agreement between Ukraine and the EU (recall, it was the decision to postpone that caused mass protests in Kiev, as a result of which President Viktor Yanukovych fled the country). A year later, Alexander Tsybulsky became deputy minister and began to oversee, in particular, the management of special economic zones, single-industry towns, the preparation of a state program for the development of the Arctic, and issues of socio-economic development of the regions. In 2015, the official headed the working group of the Ministry of Economy for the integration of Crimea and Sevastopol.

The interlocutor of Kommersant noted that Alexander Tsybulsky, as a deputy minister, was responsible for the same issues that are supervised by Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Kozak, was a member of commissions under his leadership, and participated in writing a regional development strategy. "Tsybulsky can be called Kozak's 'disciple'," the interlocutor of Kommersant said. After the arrest of Alexei Ulyukaev, the candidacy of Mr. Tsybulsky was even discussed as a possible contender for the vacant seat.

Kommersant's sources believe that the new head of the NAO could have been given the task of uniting the district with the Arkhangelsk region (these are the so-called matryoshka subjects). The topic of unification, according to Valery Chuprov, has always been perceived sharply and "very negatively" in the district. Arkhangelsk political scientist Andrey Churakov noted that Mr. Tsybulsky “from the post of federal deputy minister became the de facto head of a rural district, so if he has ambitions, he can promote the theme of unification.” Sergei Pivkov, deputy head of the LDPR faction in the Arkhangelsk regional assembly, noted that for the merger, "the opinion of the population will be the determining factor." The interlocutor of Kommersant is sure that in the event of attempts to unite the NAO with the Arkhangelsk region, the federal government will have problems. “Moreover, Muscovites will not find arguments for unification, “island” thinking is understandable only to people who lived on the “island” (you can get to the polar NAO only by plane.- "b"),” he said.

An interlocutor in the government and a source close to the Presidential Administration say that almost all appointments come from the president's personnel reserve. Indeed, in latest version the list of the personnel reserve published on the Kremlin website includes the names of both Alexander Tsybulsky and Gleb Nikitin, who was appointed acting head of the Nizhny Novgorod region on September 26 (Dmitry Azarov, who headed the Samara region on September 25, is not on this list). The selection of candidates went through the personnel department of the Kremlin with the participation of the RANEPA. The Kommersant Academy confirmed that Mr. Tsybulsky had completed an additional education program with them.

Earlier, Kommersant's sources called a rather long list of regions in which power could change. A source in the Presidential Administration told Kommersant that when choosing regions to replace governors, the dynamics of socio-economic development were taken into account (for example, the budget deficit increased in the NAO), electoral support, and the presence of inter-elite conflicts.

The likelihood of resignation is high for another 12 heads of regions, follows from the sustainability rating of governors (“State Council 2.0”), prepared by the Minchenko Consulting holding. Among the potential retirees from this list there are those whose departure has already been announced by Kommersant (for example, the heads Murmansk region Marina Kovtun, Omsk, Novosibirsk and Ivanovo regions Viktor Nazarov, Vladimir Gorodetsky and Pavel Konkov). Yevgeny Minchenko will also read his resignation to the heads of Kalmykia, Primorsky Territory, St. Petersburg, the Republic of Altai and the Altai Territory. They are accompanied by Viktor Tolokonsky and Ramazan Abdulatipov, who announced their resignation on September 27, the heads of the Krasnoyarsk Territory and Dagestan. Two Kommersant sources close to the Presidential Administration at once say that they "freaked out" without waiting for the president's decrees. Yesterday, speaking to local deputies, Mr. Abdulatipov explained his resignation from office by saying that “there are people in Moscow who shave hares on the go (Kommersant’s interlocutor, who knows the Avar language, claims that this is an Avar proverb)”: “From them we suffered already in the 90s. And it's bad that they sometimes impose not very popular decisions on the president. But the president's decision is law for us." Candidates for removal and appointment for presentation to the president, reminds the Kommersant source, are preparing the political bloc of the Presidential Administration. Obviously, the head of Dagestan had in mind his curator - the first deputy head of the presidential administration, Sergei Kiriyenko. Recall that Mr. Abdulatipov was Deputy Prime Minister in the government of Mr. Kiriyenko in 1998, but resigned two and a half months before the dismissal of the entire cabinet.

A separate story of yesterday's evening was the story around the possible change of the head of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. The start of the wave of rumors was a report by a RIA Novosti source in the Presidential Administration that “neither the head of the FANO, Mikhail Kotyukov, nor the head of the Oboronprom, Sergei Sokol, are considered for the post of head of the Krasnoyarsk Territory.” Previously, these names were called as quite probable candidates. The standby mode immediately fueled the rumor that Alexander Uss, speaker of the region's legislative assembly, flew to Moscow, having lost the election of the head of the region to Alexander Khloponin in 2002. Yevgeny Minchenko called the appearance of this candidacy “logical”: “In fact, in the region under Tolokonsky, a tandem of a governor and a speaker ruled.” At the same time, the expert noted that his candidacy "does not quite fit into the logic of rejuvenation of the governor's corps": Mr. Uss is 62 years old.

Kommersant is following developments.
