Russia and Ukraine: Anatoly Chubais, Putin’s international envoy, resigns from his post
Anatoly Chubais, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s international envoy, has resigned from his post, the Kremlin confirmed.
Is he highest-ranking Russian official to resign since the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine.
Chubais took over in 2020 the job of coordinating Russia’s sustainable development goals at the international level.
After the war started, he posted a photo on Facebook of a murdered opposition figure, in what was seen as a critical gesture towards the Kremlin.
He did not include comments to accompany the photo of Boris Nemtsov on the anniversary of his assassination on February 27.
Nor has he made any comment yet on his resignation and, according to some media, he is in Turkey with his wife.
“Yes, Chubais resigned of his own free will. But if she left [de Rusia] or stayed, it’s a personal matter,” said this Wednesday Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.
Aside from Peskov and Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, few members of President Putin’s inner circle have appeared in public in recent weeks.
Ukrainian presidential adviser Mykhaylo Podolyak said Wednesday that it was interesting that the Kremlin’s two top security figures, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Chief of Staff Valery Gerasimov, were not “in plain sight” along with the heads of the Russian secret services.
Chubais was not seen as a member of Putin’s inner circle, despite having the position of special representative for links with international organizations.
Is better known for his role in the reforms of the Russian economy in the 1990s after the fall of the Soviet Union. Privatizations under President Boris Yeltsin helped create a host of very wealthy oligarchs.
Opposition figures were not impressed by Chubais’s resignation. Jailed leader Alexei Navalny’s spokeswoman, Kira Yarmysh, disputed claims that it was an anti-war protest, rather than that he is fearing “for his own skin and his own money”.
Russia has clamped down on criticism of the invasion, which began on February 24, demanding state media describe it as a “special military operation.”
Several state television journalists resigned, including Channel One editor Marina Ovsyannikova, who held up a banner reading “Stop the war!” during a prime-time news broadcast, telling the Russians that they were lying to them.
