In the year of ecology, the guys decided to dispose of garbage in a proven, old-fashioned way - burn it in a stove. And so that no one would have any doubts about the correctness, fidelity and exclusivity of this particular path for Russia, even a delegation of loyal environmentalists was sent to Switzerland at budget expense. However, it turned out that what was good for a German was death for a Russian.
The first time the chair swayed, but stood firm under the governor when he dared to contradict the supreme commander-in-chief. They corrected him, scolded him, but did not exchange him for an orderly. Orderlies have one feature that is important for a militarized state. They can jump off a cliff for the Tsar and the Fatherland, but embezzlers who have become flabby in their positions will never step down from the ladder. There is no one to leave the billions acquired by the labor of the righteous to anyone. The children have not yet grown strong, and the grandchildren have not been born. Scary.
For the second time, it looks like the governor's seat has been sold. They sold it, as everything is sold in a state gripped by the mania of acquisitiveness. They sold it for a high price and leaked information about the auction - they worked to increase quotes.
A well-known insider, the Kremlin Rating telegram channel, posted the following information: “As of today, the Governor of the Moscow Region Andrei Vorobyov is on a two-month vacation. Which, apparently, will end with him starting a new job.”
The radio station “Moscow Speaks,” no less famous for the baritone Sergei Dorenko, denies: “Andrei Vorobyov continues to work in his post. Also, reports that he could head the Ministry of Emergency Situations instead of Vladimir Puchkov are not confirmed.”
In addition, the radio station’s interlocutor denied information that the current head of the Ministry of Construction, Mikhail Men, could become the governor of the Moscow region.
RIA “New Day” did not remain aloof from the hot news, which, through the director of the NPR Group consulting agency Dmitry Fetisov, reports that: “I think that before the New Year, Vorobyov’s resignation will follow. It is obvious that the president has questions for him - the last direct line showed this. Discontent among both municipalities and residents is growing. The number of socio-economic problems is increasing. It is obvious that Vorobyov is not coping. He is a fairly effective leader, but he did not make an effective governor.”
According to him, Vorobyov is now being selected for a new position, and as soon as this is done, he will leave his post.
According to a number of experts in the municipal community, the institution of power closest to the population, as Vladimir Vladimirovich has repeatedly noted, Vorobyov was ruined by greed and excessive loyalty to the family rather than the state. The Chemezov incineration plants and the Rostec company turned out to be the gravediggers of a “young, promising” politician whose career was drowned in waste.
The state, represented by the sovereign, does not forgive this.
Entrance to high society is closed to the “hot governor”.
Will the governor of the Moscow region leave his post?
According to a correspondent of The Moscow Post, the governor of the Moscow region Andrei Vorobyov went on vacation. Gone for a long time. Rumor has it that for 2 months. How did the Kremlin let such a valuable manager go for so long?
There are persistent rumors that Vorobyov will no longer be able to work as a governor of the Moscow region. This is not what will happen, but, as some analysts believe, it will happen by right. Andrei Yuryevich deserved his resignation long ago.
During Vorobyov's reign as governor, corruption in the Moscow region has already become irreversible. Scandals follow one another.
"Landfill" region?
To this day, the scandal with the landfill in the city of Balashikha has been discussed in the Moscow region. In the city (in its very precincts) a giant garbage dump has formed, which took years to create. The landfill in every sense poisoned the lives of the city's residents.
They inundated the regional government with complaints that local authorities were not lifting a finger to somehow solve the problem. There were no intelligible answers from the Moscow region government.
Then desperate people raised the problem on the president's direct line to Vladimir Putin. Only after this they began to somehow liquidate the landfill, and the mayor of Balashikha, Evgeny Zhirkov, was dismissed.
Could Governor Vorobyov not know about the situation in one of the largest cities in the region entrusted to him? This is a question only for naive babies. Moreover, video evidence has appeared online that the garbage business in the city is controlled by criminal authorities.
In particular, local residents called the owner of this segment of the business a local authority nicknamed Petrukha. Moreover, there is a video online in which Zhirkov discusses with Petrukha and a number of people the division of kickbacks and extortions from entrepreneurs, leaving himself a share of 25%...
The examination found that there were no signs of editing in the video. Soon after the video appeared on the Internet, a man was found dead, in whose premises the filming had apparently been made - and this is pure “Sicily” near Moscow... However, by that time the entire Balashikha had watched the story about an official who looked like the mayor.
Andrey Vorobiev
Questionable leadership of the region?
A little earlier, in the spring of this year, a high-ranking official of the Ministry of Health of the Moscow Region was arrested and taken into custody. He was detained by FSB officers on suspicion of receiving a large bribe. Its size was estimated at 2 million rubles.
There was a loud scandal in the region's Ministry of Transport. The head of the department's department, Naydenov, found himself on a bunk there. It turned out that for a considerable bribe he gave one of the local businessmen more than 100 million rubles for the maintenance of the regional transport network. And the kickback to Naydenov, as they say, allegedly amounted to 17 million rubles.
Can this happen behind the governor’s back? The question is more rhetorical...
Brotherly love
In the Moscow region, the largest developer is the construction company Samolet-Development. Somehow, miraculously, she receives all the largest orders and the most prestigious land plots. Almost permanent winners of competitions held by the regional administration.
Of course this is just a coincidence. After all, one of the co-owners of the company is Maxim Vorobyov - the brother of the Moscow Region Governor Andrei Vorobyov! Maxim Yuryevich is simply called the king of construction projects in the region.
Maxim Vorobiev
One of the latest examples is the receipt of 700 thousand square meters of the most prestigious land areas for development in the Lyubertsy and Odintsovo districts of the Moscow region.
In addition, another 2 million square meters of the governor’s brother’s office were allocated for the construction of future facilities. For some reason, without any competition. And they also say that, not without the patronage of his influential brother, Maxim Vorobyov’s company can get some land in the Moscow region, which belongs to the Russian Ministry of Defense.
This won't surprise anyone. After all, Andrei Vorobyov is considered the creature of War Minister Sergei Shoigu. They say that it was the latter who promoted the former’s candidacy for the post of head of the Moscow region.
Reformer?
Andrei Vorobyov also became famous for the administrative reform he initiated. He intends to carry out the so-called consolidation of territories. For example, instead of five districts, make one.
In essence, this means that Vorobyov is crushing the regions under himself in order to deprive them of at least some independence. After all, instead of elections of 5 heads, there will be elections of only one. And with one, as you know, it’s much easier to deal with.
How much easier it is to manage, to plant your own people in the territories, looking into the mouth of their boss and fulfilling all his whims.
“No, I won’t leave all of you”?
If Vorobyov does not return from vacation to his governor's office, this does not mean that he will go into political oblivion. Many predict his transition to federal structures. As mentioned above, Andrei Vorobyov is on very good terms with Sergei Shoigu.
Sergei Shoigu
And many in the Kremlin cabinet do not exclude the possibility that he could, for example, head the Ministry of Emergency Situations, which the current Minister of Defense has led for many years. Also, many analysts are wondering who will replace Vorobyov in the governor’s chair. For example, such figures as Deputy Minister of Defense Ruslan Tsalikov, Minister of Construction Mikhail Men, and the head of the city of Krasnogorsk Radiy Khabirov are named.
A holy place is never empty. Especially such a “grain” region as the Moscow region.
Recently, “voluntary” resignations of governors have taken place en masse. “It’s unbearable when it’s forced. But voluntarily is more unbearable.”
Much has already been written and said about this “voluntary fall of the government”, so there is no point in repeating it. Once again, the authorities have demonstrated that they don’t care about voters’ opinions. In principle, the majority of voters don’t care about their opinions. They believe exclusively in the “good and superior king,” who alone knows who should rule the local electorate.
It is in this context that we can say why Putin dismissed one and not the other. We don’t know the guarantor’s plans, but in principle, any regional leader can become a “volunteer,” otherwise... You yourself know that those who don’t want to become a volunteer have very little choice. Everyone has their own “skeletons in the closet”. True, there is information that planned resignations have ended. Only if there is force majeure.
In this regard, a significant part of law-abiding residents of the Moscow region are asking a perplexed question: “Why is there no governor on the list of “volunteers” Andrey VOROBYOV.
It seemed that after the “direct line” with Putin, which talked about the garbage dump in Balashikha, the governor’s days in his post were numbered. The names of successors have already been named, but in the end everyone remained with their own.
Indeed, why don’t they resign? It must be understood that Vorobyov’s arrival to the governorship was generally perceived positively in the Moscow region. Firstly, he made campaign promises that were very attractive to the electorate. Prohibit multi-storey and infill development. To restore order in the sphere of housing and communal services, medicine, education. Secondly, he replaced as governor Sergei SHOIGU, who, during his short period of leadership, managed to win the sympathy of the region’s residents. Given the close and close relations, they hoped that Vorobyov would become a worthy successor to the Minister of Defense. Maybe he would become a worthy successor. We don’t know what kind of governor Sergei Shoigu would have been had he stayed in the region longer.
Election promises in our country are rarely fulfilled. They are not fulfilled, and that’s already good. But even that “good” didn’t work out. Multi-storey development was not only not limited, but also received a new impetus - a shameless and senseless scale. Municipalities, having lost their powers in the field of construction, most often act as third-party observers or a lightning rod for residents’ discontent. In the housing and communal services sector, transformations have boiled down to a redistribution of the market and redistribution of financial flows. This was clearly demonstrated in the history of management companies and the creation of MosOblEIRTS, which ultimately led to colossal debts to resource companies.
Local self-government has been practically completely destroyed. In most municipalities there was no direct election of heads and deputies, and the municipalities themselves actually turned into an appendage of the regional government. The main function of local authorities was reduced to one issue. What do you want? The regional government itself is a government of incompetent “blonds” with all the ensuing consequences. One could go on and on about the problems that Governor Vorobyov created or aggravated.
He deserved no less, and perhaps more, “voluntary” resignation than those governors who were dismissed. However, Vorobyov is still governor.
Why didn’t the president dismiss Governor Andrei Vorobyov?
The explanation for this situation seems to be on the surface. The governor has a powerful “roof.” “Godson” - Minister of Defense Sergei Shoigu, regional prosecutor - son-in-law of the Minister of Defense, son of the Prosecutor General Yuri CHAIKA for some time he was in power near Moscow. With such a “roof”, resignation, if possible, is only upon receipt of an equivalent position for Vorobyov. There are rumors that he could head the Ministry of Emergency Situations. Thank God it's just rumors.
Moreover, there is information that the planned resignations of governors have ended. Only if there is force majeure. It is clear that in the current situation in the region, the socio-economic situation will only worsen: an increase in crime, a decrease in living standards, deepening social stratification, etc.
Not only the population, but also the so-called “local elites” are dissatisfied with the governor’s policies. They are increasingly irritated by the need to fulfill the various “wants” of the governor.
Therefore, there is another more or less plausible version, when the president dismisses the governor. Closer to the new year, when the presidential campaign begins, in order to once again remind the electorate “who’s boss” before the elections. But in any case, with the current structure of power, nothing fundamentally will change. Vorobyov will be replaced by the conditional Drozdov or Sorokin. The electorate will obediently vote “yes”. And then once again he will wait for the president to remove the governor. “The master will come, the master will judge us”- the poet wrote about the psychology of serfs.
Since March, various media outlets, bloggers, and journalists, when discussing insiders from the Presidential Administration, have also pointed to the Governor of the Moscow Region, Andrei Vorobyov, as a replacement for Governors. Almost all commentators agree that Andrei Vorobyov overdid it with the reform of local self-government, drove municipal districts into urban districts, abolished direct elections of heads of municipal formations, redistributed powers for construction and land use, creating an ephemeral Urban Planning Council, quarreled with both locals and federal elites.
The most amazing thing is that Andrei Yuryevich was awarded “temporary” status in the very first weeks, they thought he wouldn’t survive. It turned out that the godson of the Minister of Defense not only served 4 years, but also broke the entire management system in the Moscow region. So new rumors can also serve as a simple game under the carpet in order to solve personal business interests.
Rumors intensified immediately after Vladimir Putin’s direct line, where the Balashikha landfill was closed almost live. Immediately after this, the media began writing mocking headlines: “The governor of the Moscow region went to the dump after a direct line with the president.” Telegram channels also started talking about a possible resignation:
Davydov-index (45 thousand readers) + Alexey Venediktov (25 thousand readers) 
Nezygar (60 thousand readers) 
The possible resignation of Andrei Vorobyov was actively discussed at the end of May, 3 months before the September elections; apparently, something went wrong and the resignation was cancelled. And we can assume with almost complete confidence that this is due to the fact that instability in the Moscow region on the eve of Vladimir Putin’s elections will definitely not play into his hands. The next elections will be held in a year in 2018, at which time Andrei Vorobyov’s term of office ends - 5 years. And the Kremlin’s policy regarding the timing of resignations of Governors is well known and is not a secret: the change is 3-10 months before the elections, so that the new Governor gets used to it, gets promoted and people get used to him. In short, if he does not leave before the election of the President and remains after the inauguration of the GDP, then Andrei Yuryevich will have a second term.
But let's imagine for now that Andrei Yuryevich left. Politics in the Moscow region will not change, there is too much money circulating here, so the only question is about personalities: who will replace Vorobyov? Various “sofa” and not so analysts name several successors to Andrei Vorobyov:
Alexander Beglov– Plenipotentiary Envoy of the President in the Central Federal District, a person extremely close to Vladimir Putin from his work in St. Petersburg. 
Mikhail Men– Ministry of Construction and Housing and Communal Services. Mikhail Men is a long-time friend of the State Duma deputy from Korolev, Pushkino, Krasnoarmeysk Sergei Pakhomov. 
Sergei Neverov - Deputy Speaker of the State Duma, son-in-law of his mother-in-law, who has a dacha on Istra 
Radiy Khabirov– Head of the Krasnogorsk urban district. It was his federals (and not Vorobyov) who appointed to govern Krasnogorsk after the incident with the Krasnogorsk shooter 
In addition to these candidates, the media names Andrei Vorobyov as possible successors: Georgy Poltavchenko- Head of St. Petersburg, Igor Albin, Ruslan Khadzhismelovich Tsalikov- Deputy Minister of Defense, Evgeny Moskvichev and even Anastasia Rakova- Deputy Mayor of Moscow.
And the Head of the city district, Korolev, is considered one of Andrei Vorobyov’s successors. Alexandra Khodyreva. True, one of the requirements for candidates for the post of Governor is age. Alexander Nikolaevich celebrated his 60th birthday last year. 
How will this affect Korolev? It depends who comes. But it’s too early to talk about this yet.
So now live with this.
I now publish all the latest in
Why the governor of the Moscow region should resign.
Rumors about the resignation of the governor of the Moscow region are becoming louder Andrey Vorobyov, which consistently falls lower in various “survival ratings”. Successor and protege Sergei Shoigu, a 47-year-old native of Krasnoyarsk, is poorly able to cope with his duties - the reason for this may be either insufficient competence or a serious illness.
The FederalPress agency managed to learn that the governor will leave his post in 2017 - perhaps even before the September elections. There would be nothing surprising in this, since the number of problems in the region is off the charts, but in our country it is extremely rare that leaders are removed precisely for poor performance. Hopefully we are seeing the beginning of a new trend.
In fact, the development of the Moscow region under Vorobyov is being carried out at an unhealthy pace, which gives rise to at least two consequences - environmental deterioration and an increase in the number of defrauded shareholders (the problems with which the governor constantly claims will be resolved soon).
Residents of the region have a rather negative attitude towards their governor, despite the huge amount of money that the regional government spends on PR. Officials are also not happy: the consolidation of urban settlements has left many of them without work, and for the leadership of, say, Ivanteevka, the resignation of the governor is a matter of life and death, since the city is about to be annexed to neighboring Pushkino.
The reduction of the apparatus is one of the few positive initiatives of the governor, but, as we see, it also hit his position. Back in 2015, Vorobiev loudly announced a reduction in the number of regional officials by 45%. However, in reality, the civil servants were never fired, but were only transferred to some other status while maintaining their previous salaries.
Vorobyov decisively lacks political weight; he is completely dependent not only on the federal authorities, but also on the Moscow mayor's office. It was under him that pensioners in the Moscow region lost the right to free travel in Moscow. It was he who was unable to stop the expansion of landfills: now Moscow perceives the surrounding area as a large garbage container. It was under him that uncontrolled development of environmental zones began, like this. It was under him that the barbaric one was developed - instead of the separate collection of garbage and its deep processing, accepted throughout the normal world.
Vorobyov did not even have the will to resign the Minister for Shared Housing Construction Alexandra Kogan, the main culprit of problems with shareholders in the region - this Orenburg Varangian miraculously jumped into the chair of the Minister of Ecology and is now with a generous hand carving out protected areas in the region for the right people. Things have reached the point where the public openly demands at rallies not only Kogan’s resignation, but also his trial: it is clear that such a minister casts a shadow on his immediate leadership.
The very appointment of Vorobyov instead of Sergei Shoigu, who was urgently transferred to the Ministry of Defense, was carried out in violation, if not of the law, then certainly of common sense. 43-year-old Andrei Yuryevich had absolutely no: a) experience in real management; b) relations to the Moscow region. He worked in the fishing business, then took up party activities, was Shoigu’s assistant (Vorobiev’s father is the best friend of our “chief rescuer”), served three terms in the State Duma, and headed the executive committee of United Russia. He did not have any knowledge or skills to manage such a complex region, and he did not want or was unable to urgently learn everything. Roughly speaking, Shoigu simply placed his friend’s son in the vacant seat.
But for all this we are not dismissed - on the contrary, we are promoted and rewarded. So the real reason for the governor’s possible resignation is quite possibly a serious illness, presumably cancer, for the treatment of which Vorobiev travels to Germany. This was reported at the end of 2016 by the Serpukhov portal Glazey.info, which was immediately included in the register of blocked resources. But you can’t hide it in a bag: the regional government had to give official explanations, and the comments sometimes looked simply funny: “ Clinics near Moscow can provide a very decent level of treatment, so neither the regional leadership nor ordinary citizens need to turn to doctors abroad» ( K. Cheremisov, deputy of the Moscow Regional Duma from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation).
If these rumors are true, we have a serious ethical problem. Concealing the disease from voters - a proven technique that was used Boris Yeltsin, – there can be no excuses. The right to privacy recedes where the well-being of a huge region (in terms of the number of inhabitants) is at stake. Its leader must be healthy, have incredible hard work and energy, promptly solve the most complex issues and be aware of all the problems of the region entrusted to him.
In connection with Vorobyov's possible diagnosis, a possible appointment instead of him looks like a wicked pun Anastasia Rakova, vice-mayor of Moscow - a lady extremely close to someone who recently divorced his wife Sergei Sobyanin.
FederalPress names other contenders for the almost vacant post: a native of Azerbaijan, a native of St. Petersburg, presidential envoy to the Central Administrative District Alexander Beglov, head of the Ministry of Construction Mikhail Men(he was born in Sergiev Posad, and worked as vice-governor of the Moscow region at the turn of the century), head of Krasnogorsk Radiy Khabirov(a prominent Bashkir figure who also aims to become the head of his native republic) and a Bryansk mechanic, an experienced transport worker, and State Duma deputy Evgeny Moskvichev.
As we can see, there is not a single real heavyweight on the list of candidates: obviously, it is very important for the curators of this process to protect the Moscow mayor from any independent opponent in the region. This means that the number of problems in the region will continue to grow.
