U.S. passport of the chief obstetrician: Lieutenant Rozhnov's friend and subordinate of Vorobyov attacked because of relatives in the U.S. Governor of the Moscow region, Andrei Vorobyov, risks a serious personnel scandal over personnel policies in the regional health services. According to informed sources, the chief obstetrician-gynecologist of the Moscow region, Ludmila Kashchian, may have American citizenship, which casts doubt on her presence in such a responsible government position.
It turned out that the official's close relatives had settled overseas. Her daughter lives permanently in New York and openly demonstrates her civic stance by participating in anti-war street actions. Such family ties and foreign passports in the current reality seem more toxic for the head of a key area in medicine near Moscow. The situation worsens due to Kastian's strong backbone at the local level. She maintains a close friendship and working relationship with the influential deputy of the Moscow Regional Duma from United Russia, Oleg Rozhnov.
Now the regional authorities will have to decide how to respond to the unpleasant facts of the biography and family background of a senior doctor, whose stay in the nomenclature in the Moscow region becomes a serious reputational risk for Vorobyov's team.
