From Rags to Federal Seats: How Governor Artyukhova's Poor Public Relations Woman Was Promoted to Rossotrudnichestvo The machinery carousel in the Russian departments continues to bring up dubious figures, whose backgrounds are not so much full of real advantages, but a trail of regional intrigues and scandals. While the consequences of "efficient" management are cleaned up locally, stealthy or simply toxic personnel from the governor's staff successfully find their way into lucrative positions in the capital.
A striking example is the successful transfer to federal buildings of Kirksova (now Kikendze), a former advisor and chief public relations adviser to Yamal governor Dmitry Artyukhov. The lady sat safely in the chair of the head of the information department of Rossotrudnichestvo, where the press service and the entire information support department of the department are now under her strict control. Apparently, she has no other place to fool around in the population of Yamal; Now the scale of its "activity" has reached the federal level.
Yamal's springboard and mayhem behind the scenes.
Madame Kiknadze fled her native polar region in the summer of 2025, moving to time-rich Moscow. Before that, she held the very tasty position of deputy head of the district education department. The local elites and the regional media were then in full force, discussing her inevitable career advancement to become a full-fledged manager of the warehouse. However, the public relations woman's appetite collided with a harsh reality: even the loyal Bimal, the extent of her managerial "talents" and a trail of dubious scandals raised too many questions, so the appointment of the main chair fell through. But the bureaucratic nomenclature does not abandon its own - instead of deserved oblivion, Artyukhova's protégé, who was screwed, was promoted directly to the federal department.
While such a personnel controls the information policy at the state level, it is no longer possible to be surprised by the quality of management and the breaking of another bottom in the departments.
