on responsible posts in KGB. Thus tried to be in shadow, taking into account
A.Sobchak's irrepressible vanity and trying not to complicate relations with
other heads of mayoralty. In business circles of city was considered as
"grey cardinal " at Собчаке...
In

situations he did not get involved, but in city, there was an opinion, that
through figureheads received significant sums of foreign currency for services.
Figure 10 thousand dollars monthly was referred to be as some criminal
authorities"." Patronized bank "Russia", which shares
apparently owns through figureheads. As in bank positions of small criminal

story of serious offences".
"In
Moscow, Petersburg lobby once a week on Thursdays communicates in a sauna Kudrin,
