The deputy head of the National Guard became the main candidate for the post of head of Dagestan. How is the preparation for the election of the head of Dagestan How will the September elections in Dagestan and Ingushetia end?

As the main candidate for the post of head of Dagestan, Deputy Director of the Russian Guard Sergei Melikov is considered, four sources told RBC

The main candidate for the post of the new head of Dagestan was the deputy director of the Russian Guard, Sergei Melikov, who previously served as presidential envoy in the North Caucasus federal district. This was told to RBC by two sources close to the leadership of Dagestan, and confirmed by two interlocutors close to the Kremlin.

“Melikov is the most likely candidate, he is a security official, he knows the region well and is respected there,” a source close to the Kremlin told RBC. “90% - Melikov,” added the interlocutor of RBC, close to the authorities of Dagestan, answering the question of who can lead the republic. Another source close to the leadership of Dagestan described Melikov as "a figure equidistant from the clans in the republic."

RBC's source in the National Guard noted that if Melikov is considered as a candidate, then this is due to his origin, since he is half Lezgin. At the same time, he was born and raised outside the republic. This is the case when, on the one hand, he seems to be a “national cadre”, and on the other, a “sharp person”. “It is necessary, of course, to take into account both his current position and his experience as an plenipotentiary,” RBC’s interlocutor noted.

“I can’t, firstly, neither confirm nor deny, and secondly, as a result, I can’t comment,” the director’s adviser told RBC Federal Service troops of the National Guard Alexander Khinshtein.

According to sources, the deputy head of the Kremlin administration is considered for the same post, ex-president of the republic Magomedsalam Magomedov and the head of the Academy of the State Fire Service of the Ministry of Emergency Situations Shamsutdin Dagirov.

Magomedsalam Magomedov's representative told RBC that the deputy head of the presidential administration was on a "working trip" and promised to pass RBC's questions on to him. RBC sent an official request to Shamsutdin Dagirov, head of the Academy of the State Fire Service of the Russian Emergencies Ministry.

On the issue of reshuffles in Dagestan, the senator from the republic, the vice speaker of the upper house, Ilyas Umakhanov, also went to the presidential administration, RBC's interlocutor in the Federation Council noted. But he refused the offer to head the republic, added a source close to the head of the republic, Ramazan Abdulatipov. Umakhanov's assistant Mikhail Chernyshov told RBC that the senator would not comment on the situation with the resignation of the head of Dagestan until the presidential decree appeared. He also failed to confirm or deny the information that Umakhanov participated in an interview for the post of head of the region in the presidential administration. The senator himself did not respond to calls and messages from RBC.

On Thursday, September 28, the head of Dagestan will make an appeal about his resignation, and the name of his successor is expected to be made public this week, RBC's source in his entourage noted. .

On Wednesday morning, September 27, RBC sources said that Abdulatipov was urgently summoned to the presidential administration, where they offered a number of positions and discussed with him the candidacy of a possible successor. “It was unexpected for him, no one knew. The head of the republic expected to finalize it to the end, ”said a RBC source in his entourage. Abdulatipov, according to the source, did not express wishes for successors and wrote a statement "on own will". Later, the head of the republic confirmed the information about the resignation in an interview with Moscow Speaks.

Director of the Center for Economic and political reforms Nikolai Mironov connected the resignation with the Kremlin's policy of rejuvenating personnel (Abdulatipov is 71 years old) and the lack of managerial skills of the head. A RBC source close to the leadership of the region added that the low ratings of the head of the republic, numerous conflicts and a “corrupt atmosphere” in Dagestan played in favor of the resignation.

MOSCOW, August 19 - RIA Novosti. Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed Acting President of the Republic Ramzan Abdulatipov, head of the Accounts Chamber of the republic Malik Bagliev and local ombudsman Ummupazil Omarova for the post of head of Dagestan, the Kremlin press service reported on Monday.

"President of Russia V.V. Putin submitted the following candidates to the People's Assembly of the Republic of Dagestan for election to the post of President of the Republic of Dagestan: 1. Abdulatipov R.G. - Acting President of the Republic of Dagestan. 2. Bagliev M.D. - Chairman of the Accounts Chamber of the Republic of Dagestan. 3. Omarova U.A. - Commissioner for Human Rights in the Republic of Dagestan," the message says.

The head of Dagestan: I do not criticize, I clean the stablesRamazan Abdulatipov, in an interview with RIA Novosti, spoke about the upcoming elections, the main problems of the region, the investment climate, as well as the prospects for the development of ski resorts and the capital of the region.

Elections in Dagestan will be held on September 8, the head of the subject will be elected by deputies of the national assembly from three candidates presented by the President of Russia.

Vladimir Putin on Monday also proposed candidates for the post of head of another North Caucasian republic, Ingushetia.

How Abdulatipov came to power in Dagestan

At the end of January, Russian President Vladimir Putin early dismissed the head of Dagestan, Magomedsalam Magomedov, and appointed him deputy head of the Kremlin administration. Abdulatipov was appointed interim head of the republic. The head of state set the task for him to form "an effective team, balanced, including the ethnic component."

How Dagestan refused direct elections of the head of the republic

In April, deputies of the Dagestan parliament decided that they would elect the head of the republic themselves. Dagestan became the first region to refuse, followed by Ingushetia. Deputies of the People's Assembly of Dagestan from the parties of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation and the "Patriots of Russia" opposed the rejection of the nationwide elections. However, in the end, against their will, they became one of those 90 residents of Dagestan (deputies of parliament) who will elect the head of the region.

Why the Caucasian republics refuse elections

"I experienced several direct elections of our leaders - it was an orgy, general, open and shameless bribery of the population. And today the screamers are again saying that it is necessary to hold direct elections (in Ingushetia) - I think, with only one goal - to somehow earn money ", - said the Head of the Public Chamber of Ingushetia Movlat-Girey Dzagiev.

How will the September elections in Dagestan and Ingushetia end?

RIA Novosti columnist Vadim Dubnov: "If the center really tries, to one degree or another, to establish order in Dagestan by establishing a previously under-established vertical of power, it can get a new intrigue and a new alignment of forces here. It is easier with Ingushetia. The political process here has long been completed, as if everyone agreed, that there are no options for further independent development.

While Ramazan Abdulatipov is preparing for spring, getting ready to radically plow the political field of the republic, Moscow is already deciding who will head the republic after Abdulatipov. Despite the reputation spoiled by the "planting of winter crops", Abdulatipov, gathering the remnants of his will into a fist, is trying to straighten out his position, which is not so triumphant as a year ago, hoping to keep his proud figure in the political field of Dagestan for a couple more years with one political multi-move.
.
The main reason for the imminent replacement of Abdulatipov was that the terrorism case against Amirov was falling apart and on February 28, not without the indirect participation of Abdulatipov, he would be released from prison under house arrest. According to information leaked from Abdulatipov's entourage, he told the Kremlin that Amirov's release from the pre-trial detention center could not worsen the situation in the republic. A real prison term will not be visible in another case - on charges of murdering investigator Gadzhibekov. But in order not to return Amirov to Dagestan on a triumphal chariot, in Moscow they nevertheless decided to give him a suspended sentence for economic violations in the Makhachkala administration, which he nevertheless “found” on the fifth attempt. Accounts Chamber In the past year.

Having learned about the release of Amirov, the head of the Dagestan pension fund Sagid Murtazaliev refused to return from Dubai and, having gutted another block of cocaine, in narcotic horror awaits guests from Dzhangamakha, Amirov's ancestral village, completely forgetting about his political ambitions to take the chair of the head of the Republic as a maximum or the head of the city of Makhachkala at least. Alas, he has already become a burden for all those (including Abdulatipov himself) on whom he staked, entering the war with the most powerful clan of Dagestan.

At the same time, the guilty verdict and suspended sentence that Amirov expects for economic violations in the city administration will finally put an end to the protracted leapfrog around the chair of the Makhachkala mayor, and all the political heavyweights of Dagestan are already preparing for early mayoral elections.

Murtazali Rabadanov, temporarily appointed acting mayor, is the first to prepare for them. Not expecting such a turn from Rabadanov, who was initially posed as a transitional compromise figure, Abdulatipov tried to reason with Rabadanov's appetites in the Kremlin through his patron Vyacheslav Volodin, who, as an experienced apparatus intriguer, initially began to turn off Kudrin's influence on Russian President V.V. Putin. To do this, Volodin leaked information about Kudrin as one of the financers of the opposition TV channel Dozhd, which fell into the Kremlin's hard millstones of disgrace due to an inappropriate vote on the blockade of Leningrad. Moreover, Volodin himself arranged the disgrace himself, in order to more easily soil Kudrin. But Volodin was not able to merge Kudrin in front of Putin, and now Abdulatipov is forced to walk around Makhachkala with Rabadanov, jointly examining the ruins of Buynakskaya Street.

The second, and in fact the most promising candidate for mayor, was the deputy Rizvan Kurbanov, who is supported both by high-ranking generals from the central apparatus of the FSB of the Russian Federation and in the Presidential Administration itself at the level of such a figure as Oleg Plokhoy, who is the leader, although a new one, but along with the most influential Office for Combating Corruption. In addition to these administrative resources, Rizvan Kurbanov also has quite close contact with V.V., close to Putin. authoritative businessman Zarakh Iliev. This Zarakh Iliev is a companion of Kurbanov's close friend, Dagestani businessman Omar Murtazaliev, who owns the Sadovod and Moskva shopping complex in Moscow. The recent unsuccessful attack by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation on these structures, behind which the trail of the Dagestan White House and the Dagestan Ministry of Internal Affairs is visible, was easily repulsed, thanks to Rizvan Kurbanov's strong connections in power unit at the federal level.

The most interesting thing is that Dagestan White House and the Dagestan Ministry of Internal Affairs, acting separately from each other, almost simultaneously hit the same places - the largest wholesale vegetable base "Pokrovskaya", which is the business empire of the Dagestan brothers Gadzhiev-Isaev, whose clan includes the head of the Dagestan "Rosselkhozbank" , and for these largest shopping malls "Sadovod" and "Moskva". And moreover, they moved the initiators completely different reasons. Thanks to all his resources and capabilities, Kurbanov is guaranteed to be able to help Abdulatipov restore order in Makhachkala and the Republic and solve the issue of combating extremism, if, of course, Abdulatipov manages to stay in his position. This is important for Abdulatipov and for keeping under control Amirov, who is subsequently released from custody, who most likely has his own accounts not only with Sagid Murtazaliev, but also with Abdulatipov himself and Volodin, who managed to split the Kremlin and Amirov in the spring of 2013, preparing him for an ambulance. arrest.

Another contender who has his sights set on the chair of the mayor of the capital is the current head of the UFOMS of the Russian Federation for the Republic of Dagestan Magomed Suleimanov, who, with the persistence of a sailor, continues to plot his course for the chair of the prime minister with an intermediate anchorage in the administration of the city of Makhachkala. Maritime stubbornness is rather caused by the amount already spent, which migrated from the bins of the Compulsory Health Insurance Fund to the personal bins of Abdulatipov's son-in-law Musaev Magomed. Rightly considering himself "thrown", Suleymanov Magomed, after the appointment of Abdulatipov to the post of prime minister Abdusamad Gamidov, began to lead his own party, hoping to attract attention precisely by creating obstacles to other participants in this mayoral marathon. By this method, he expects to enter into negotiations and force him to return the money spent.

Abdulatipov managed to create a big problem, and former Prime Minister Magomed Abdullaev, whom Abdulatipov considered to be a complete "zero" and simply wanted to throw out the rector of the DagGosPedUniversity, replacing him with his distant relative. To do this, he instructed the Minister of Education and Science of the Republic of Dagestan Shakhabas Shakhov, whose broken ears betray him more of an athlete than an intellectual, and Prime Minister Hamidov, to ensure that the husband of his niece Tagir wins the upcoming elections of the rector of DagGosPedUniver. Without bothering to search for some complex combinations, these two great combinators resorted to a simple as a chintz handkerchief with polka dots, a forceful run-down at the gop-stop level on the rector Magomed Abdullaev. Experienced Abdullayev immediately went to his friend Dmitry Medvedev, where he told about Abdulatipov's desire to employ his relative, openly spitting on the long-standing friendship between Abdullaev and the country's prime minister, about the friendship with which Abdullayev repeatedly warned Abdulatipov and his entourage.

Enraged by such disrespect for his friends, Medvedev unleashed a flurry of emotions on Ziyavudin Magomedov, who in turn demanded an explanation from Abdulatipov on the situation. Abdulatipov, in his characteristic manner as a party apparatchik, immediately merged Gamidov and Shakhov as the initiators and executors of this raid, explaining along the way that the proposal for employment of a relative came from Shakhov himself, and he, Abdulatipov, simply without going into the situation supported the proposal and nothing more. It was probably really the initiative of Shakhov himself, to propose a relative of Abudlatipov to the post of rector. Knowing like no one else this weakness of the President of the Republic of Dagestan, push his relatives and friends everywhere. And the reason for Shakhov's so reverent concern for Abdulatipov's relative lies in the desire of the minister with broken ears to hide the ends in the water on the embezzlement of almost 200 million rubles discovered by Abdulaev during the period of Shakhov's rectorship at DagGosPedUniver.

Medvedev, pretending to be satisfied with the explanations, nevertheless desired the heads of Gamidov and Shakhov, demanding that they be dismissed. Abdulatipov, painfully inventing words of consolation for Abdusamad Gamidov and Shakhabas Shakhov, who appeared in the scandal around the Pedagogical University, was already about to dissolve the government, until at the last moment the “scoundrel Gadzhi Batyrov” rang the whole world about it. After this drain, Abdulatipov got into a situation where any new move leads to a worsening of his situation. No longer able to beautifully merge the Hamid government, he fell into even greater embarrassment, carelessly delivering his Message to the National Assembly.

In this Message, he instructed the government of the republic to prepare a plan for the creation of a republican oil producing company, which was immediately reported to the head of Rosneft, Igor Sechin. For the desire to create this oil company, Gadzhi Makhachev has already paid with his life, who crashed in a car accident due to a heart attack that happened to him after visiting on the eve of the accident. Investigative Committee. The reason for the visit to the austere building in Tekhnichesky Lane was related to the past searches in the Rosreestr Department for the Republic of Dagestan, which is headed by Adam Amirilaev, Makhachev's son-in-law. And the searches themselves were connected with information received by Sechin that Makhachev, through his son-in-law, issued “green cards” to trusted persons for some former Dagneft real estate objects, which he skillfully removed from the possession of Rosneft-Dagneft. It was these objects that were to become the foundation of the oil company being created, in exchange for shares for the Makhachev clan and the newborn Abdulatipov clan.

Abdulatipov, knowing full well why Sechin ordered a criminal case against the Makhachevs, took the risk and earned himself a new one. dangerous enemy. In order to justify himself to the enraged Sechin for his careless Message, Abdulatipov again remained true to himself and blamed everything on Deputy Prime Minister Nasrutdinov, as the initiator and main generator of the idea of ​​​​creating a local oil and gas company. And already under the guise of Nasrutdinov’s detention, he merged Rizvan Gazimagomedov with Marat Ilyasov, telling Sechin that they also misled him about oil production, and told the people something incomprehensible about the sale of gas networks .. Marat Ilyasov, shocked by such an incomprehensible drain, angrily gave a frank interview with the Chernovik newspaper, and the more perspicacious Gazimagomedov, realizing what was happening, kept silent. After all, besides Abdulatipov himself, only Gazimagomedov spoke publicly about the oil company, which is why he went as a scapegoat, and Marat Ilyasov, as the Minister of State Property, went to the appendage, as a person who did not keep track of the land plots under which oil fields are located. Having reassured Sechin with these sacrifices, and letting him know that the idea of ​​a local oil and gas company would be quietly merged and forgotten by him, Abdulatipov took a breath and wanted to start again trying to untie the Gordian knot around the situation with the election of the mayor of Makhachkala and the need for the resignation of the Hamidov government.

Abdulatipov is sorely lacking time to get out of the current problems and with his panicky jerks he drives himself deeper into this swamp. Trying to solve the main part of the problems at once, he came to the decision to conduct another political multi-move. As a result of this reshuffle, Rizvan Kurbanov should become the mayor of Makhachkala, which, in theory, will provide Abdulatipov with the support of the new leadership of the FSB in Dagestan, which will soon be headed by General Mironov, who is close to Rizvan Kurbanov. This general is part of an influential group of high-ranking officials of the FSB of the Russian Federation involved in the fight against extremism and terrorism. It was this group that recently managed to consolidate its position in another hot spot in the North Caucasus Federal District - Kabardino-Balkaria, bringing Kokov to the leadership of the Republic of Kokov instead of Kanokov.

By this castling, Abdulatipov has a chance to solve all his problems and keep the position of the Head of the Republic until the end of the deadline, and he needs to hurry, because the Office of the President of the Russian Federation is already consulting on four candidates to be submitted to Vladimir Putin to replace Abdulatipov. Among them is the head of the Dagestan Department of the Federal Treasury of the Russian Federation, Saigidguseyn Magomedov, who is lobbied by the former head of the Border Guard Service of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Pronichev. The second candidate was Senator Ilyas Umakhanov, who is supported by the Chairman of the Federation Council Valentina Mativenko and against whom the PR team of Abdulatipov has already begun leaking compromising evidence. The third candidate is State Duma deputy Rizvan Kurbanov with the greatest chance of approval and supported by high-ranking generals from the central apparatus of the FSB of the Russian Federation, who, in the wake of the fight against terrorism, have already brought their protege Yuri Kokov to power in Kabardino-Balkaria. The fourth candidate is being lobbied by Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu; he is the head of the North-West Regional Center of the Russian Emergencies Ministry, Colonel-General of the Internal Service Shamsutdin Dagirov. Which of them will lead Dagestan will most likely be known already in March, if Abdulatipov does not have time to seize the initiative and enter into an alliance with the most promising candidates earlier.

He held this post for four years. The politician himself said that he was between resignation and retirement, so he decided to write a letter of resignation of his own free will.

"Komsomolskaya Pravda in the North Caucasus" asked the country's leading political scientists to comment on the resignation of the leader of Dagestan, as well as express their assumptions about the future prospects of both the entire republic and the future politician.

DID NOT EXPECT

Political scientist, Director of the Institute of Contemporary state development Dmitry Solonnikov noted that in the case of the resignation of Ramazan Abdulatipov, there was no sensation.

He was one of eight governors whose powers end in a year. It was clear that a decision would be made on a new appointment or extension of office. But in any case, the question of whether to leave the leadership of Dagestan did not arise now, this is not news either for Abdulatipov or for others. His situation is similar to previous resignations - Merkushkin (governor of the Samara region, resigned on September 25, - approx.) and Shantsev (head of the Nizhny Novgorod region, resigned on September 26, - approx.). The main problem is the elite conflict and bad relations with the leaders of public opinion in the subject of the Federation, - Dmitry Vladimirovich emphasized.

Assumptions about who can lead the republic in the future, Solonnikov does not yet make, and believes that it is necessary to wait for a decision from above.

I was a couple of months ago in Dagestan, actively communicated with a number of public and politicians, and one could see a tense state in the relationship between the republican leadership and officials, lower-level politicians, and the population. Many people said that there were serious hopes for changes with the advent of Ramazan Abdulatipov, but it did not work out. All in all, it was quite a disappointment. It is clear that under these conditions some kind of personnel decision should have been made: either seriously change the leaders of public opinion, regional leaders, or change the head of the republic, which is much simpler and more understandable. Before the presidential elections, it was impossible to leave a problematic region, just like the Samara and Nizhny Novgorod regions, in a state of conflict between the leader and the vertical standing under him. And just these regions are following the system of preparation for the presidential elections, again within the framework of what the leaders of these regions should change as planned in the near future. Of course, the resignation could have taken place a little earlier or a little later, but he understood that the issue of Ramazan Abdulatipov had to be resolved, and it was clear to everyone, - he noted.

As for the future prospects of the now former head of Dagestan, Abdulatipov, according to the political scientist, will receive another post.

He is one of the old Russian politics, worked in the legislature. Perhaps he will be offered a position in the Federation Council or in the presidential administration. So far, he is an active politician. The problem is not that they are dissatisfied with him and there are personal claims against him. The problem is that he was unable to establish interaction with the region, this happens. On the other hand, Ramazan Abdulatipov is enough old man, but, I think, during a conversation in the Kremlin, they will offer him something, - suggested Dmitry Solonnikov.

SELECTION OF A NEW HEAD OF DAGESTAN MAY TAKE TIME

The reason for the resignation of Ramazan Abdulatipov can be called at least age, because the head of the region has a fairly solid age, although this has never been critical for the Caucasus. I think there is a new position for him. Perhaps in the Senate, or even in the presidential quota, that is, it will not fall out of favor, - noted Director of the Institute of Political Sociology Vyacheslav Smirnov. - Very often, weaker candidates, guilty governors, ended up in office for up to a year simply for the reason that they could not find a worthy replacement. The selection of a worthy candidate for the Caucasus is always a responsible and rather time-consuming process, so it is difficult to say who will be appointed.

DAGESTAN - SPECIAL REPUBLIC

There is no suggestion who may be a candidate for the post of head of Dagestan, and the senior researcher at the RANEPA Konstantin Kazenin. However, the reasons for the resignation of Ramazan Abdulatipov are quite obvious.

His arrival more than four years ago aroused very high hopes in Dagestan. Now it is even difficult to imagine how much the mass mood in the region has changed, how different they were in relation to the republican authorities during the first six months of his tenure. Perhaps, I have never seen such optimism in relation to the regional authorities in Dagestan, either before or after, - explained Konstantin Igorevich. “People saw that a man who had nothing to do with the local bureaucracy, who had support at the federal level, had come, and now he seemed to achieve a serious turning point in the fight against corruption. The main expectations were related specifically to this, and specifically this did not happen. Other things that happened in Dagestan under him, I mean quite major changes in the field of combating extremism and the departure of a number of very influential figures - the arrest of the former mayor of Makhachkala Amirov, the criminal case against the head of the republican pension fund Sagid Murtazaliev, who is now abroad - these are things that have greatly changed the internal alignment in the republic. At the moment, it is obvious that it was not Abdulatipov who played the first violin here, but the federals.

According to the political scientist, former head Dagestan will be selected "some nice position." But third-party people will try to intervene in the issue of appointing a new head of the republic.

Obviously, now several influential groups of Moscow Dagestanis, who occupy a serious position in business, will try to make sure that the upcoming appointment is as profitable as possible for them, consistent with their interests. This struggle will take place, but how much it will affect the reality of the new appointment is not known, Kazenin noted.


He also believes that the selection of a new candidate for the post of leader of Dagestan should be approached quite thoroughly.

Dagestan is indeed a special republic in which the 1990s continue in many respects, both with its light and dark sides. Unfortunately, a very high level of violence remains here, and there is still a very serious connection between crime and bureaucracy at various levels. And on the other hand, we have a rather high level of social activity, not imitated, but real. Therefore, the head of the republic, whoever he is, will not have 100% uncontrolled power, - Konstantin Igorevich emphasized the uniqueness of the region. - There are rather complex internal relations in the republic, and problems do not go away there. And I would like the Kremlin, taking into account these features, to develop a certain strategy for the development of this region, which concerns not just the construction of some industrial facilities who will once again receive an estimate and plunder it, and, probably, changes in the system of functioning of power in Dagestan, which would take into account these features.

BY THE WAY

Ramazan Abdulatipov will be remembered by the inhabitants of Dagestan and the entire North Caucasus not only for his work, but also for his unexpected statements.

The president Russian Federation Vladimir Putin submitted lists of candidates for the positions of heads of regions to the legislative assemblies of Dagestan, Ingushetia and the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. This was reported on Friday by the press service of the Kremlin.
