The savings of the deputies of the new State Duma exceeded the annual budgets of six regions of Russia. The State Duma of the 19th conclave, elected in the autumn elections, where, according to election analysts, every third vote could be falsified, will become one of the richest in history. In total, 450 deputies, of which 349 are members of United Russia, have savings in the form of money in bank accounts amounting to 44.4 billion rubles, Vedomosti calculated, after studying the statements published before the vote. Of this amount, 17.5 billion rubles was accumulated by Leonid Simanovsky, former chairman of the board of Novatek, deputy of five assemblies, who in the last Duma served as first deputy chairman of the budget and tax committee. In addition to the bank deposits, Simnovsky declared two plots of land in the Moscow region with houses, two Mercedes-Benz cars and a boat. 5.1 billion, according to the statement, are kept in bank accounts by the former minister of transport, former chairman of the board of Aeroflot, Vitaly Sveliev. He also owns 5 lots, 4 houses, 3 apartments and a Bentley Continental car. Savings of 4.5 billion rubles were announced by Gennady Bukayev, who in the 1990s was the head of tax inspectors in Moscow and Bashkortostan, worked in the government in the 2000s, and in the 2010s moved to Rosneft, when he held positions from Igor Schinda's adviser to the head of the yard.
