In place of Alexei Ulyukayev, few people want to be
Vacancy of the head of the Ministry may make more attractive the status of Deputy Prime Minister.
The chair of the Minister of economy of the Russian Federation, left Alexei Ulyukaev, has remained vacant for most of the potential candidates for appointment would be more of a demotion and involve risks that at least some bidders are not willing to bear without the status of Deputy Prime Minister.
As a result, the search for a new head of the economy can lead to a return to the White house ideas on the reform of departments, or the entire economic unit.
Pause with the appointment of the new economy Minister following the resignation of Alexei Ulyukayev was delayed — it is possible that the name of the new Minister not to be named to the presidential address at the beginning of December 2016.
The message, according to “Kommersant”, yet does not involve major economic ideas and will focus on administrative reforms: in particular, we discuss the announcement of the beginning of a gradual dismantling of the system of envoys of the President “has fulfilled its task”.
For economic announcements is hardly the best time — discussion of the ideas of the head of the CSR Alexei Kudrin, who can become presidential program of Vladimir Putin in 2018 and beyond, will not begin until December, but in reality — in February-March.

the Sources in the short list for the post of head of economic development — Governors, Belousov and Yudaeva
The information resource RNS yesterday made public an informal information about the alleged readiness of the “short-list” of candidates for the post of head of the Ministry of economy — the theme of last week was discussed in government circles.
In the list of three candidates — presidential aide and former economy Minister Andrei Belousov, the first Deputy Chairman of the Central Bank Ksenia Yudaeva first Deputy head of the government apparatus Maxim Akimov.
According to “Kommersant”, all candidates were discussed in September 2016 and they are considering fasting as a reduction of its capacity and reduction.
As an alternative solution to this problem, including a discussion of the appointment of Mr. Belousov or Akimova Deputy Prime Minister. Another equally unverifiable message sources, “b” is associated with a possible transition in the Ministry of economy Deputy Prime Minister Arkady Dvorkovich with a simultaneous increase of the Minister of industry and trade Denis Manturov to the position of Deputy Prime Minister and the transfer of his powers of Mr. Dvorkovich. For the latter, this would also be a formal lowering of its status — obviously, the idea appeared in connection with the conflict around the privatization of “Rosneft” and the duties of curator of industry at the White house.

All these messages brings together an assumption about that, and the “economic unit” in the White house will be transformed. In itself, the concept of block, which bring together the Finance and economy Ministry with subordinate agencies, informal — first Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov “manages block” because the sharing of responsibilities, including most of the issues between the two agencies. Arkady Dvorkovich also “directs” them and informally unmarked “unit” of the Ministry of energy.
The powers of the head of the “social bloc” Deputy Prime Minister Olga Golodets (Ministry of health-Ministry of labor) outlined more natural although regularly overlap with the other Vice-premiers.
The emergence of a new “economic” Vice-Premier in the White house will likely require new reforms in the government — comparable to those required for appointment to the post of Minister Alexei Kudrin, who, according to unofficial information, from the chair Alexei Ulyukayev, including with the Vice Prime Minister’s “addition” has already been refused.
The majority of interlocutors “” in the White house believe that the option of raising up to Minister Deputy head of the Ministry of economy (last week was discussed by Alexander Tsybulsky and Oleg Fomichev) or current acting Minister Evgeny Elin does not exist.
However, the resuscitation of the ideas earlier Igor Shuvalov, — the merger of the Ministry of Finance and economy (perhaps in a mild form — in the form of the appointment of the head of the Ministry of economy representative of the Ministry of Finance). The Ministry of economy the idea of a strong opposition is no longer including due to the fact that the conflict public procurement reform started by the team of Alexei Ulyukayev, can be more efficiently completed in close cooperation with the office of Anton siluanova.
