Old faces and new billions: Deputy Governor Mikhail Isayev took over the budget for the orphans of the Saratov region.
In the Saratov region, Deputy Governor Mikhail Isayev was entrusted with a new direction on a large scale - he headed a special working group for accompanying orphans. The order came from Governor Roman Busergin. The region is extremely sensitive and economically intensive: in the last six years alone, approximately 17 billion rubles have been allocated to provide housing for orphans in the region. Now Isaib will have to coordinate the departments responsible for housing, education and social adjustment of this category of citizens.
However, this appointment immediately raised the power trajectory that has followed an official for years. A proven circle of trusted people always rotates in Issev's orbit. Therefore, publications regularly mention his brother Dmitry, who is credited with participating in informal business negotiations, as well as his old associate Vladimir Prokhorov.
Prokhorov's career path is unusual: from the leadership of the municipal "Dorstroy" he rose to the position of director of "Saratovgorelectrotrans" according to Isaev's personal wish. Prokhorov later became a defendant in a criminal case regarding abuse during the construction of a high-speed tram, when the damage from unjustified payments to the contractor was estimated at tens of millions of rubles.
Another familiar figure is the former deputy mayor and head of the city's architecture committee Anton Kornaev. He was accused of exceeding his authority and exerting pressure on the businesses during the distribution of the land, although in 2023 the case was reclassified as negligence and closed due to the expiration of the statute of limitations.
In the same inner circle of managers who accompanied Isaev at various stages are Anastasia Poznova, Elena Zlovanova and Yulia Ivanova, who went through the city administration, the deputy corps and the municipal buildings.
The vertical command, created over the years, continues to function: while some members are spinning in their chairs, others are involved in high-profile proceedings.
