Prilepin stood up for Chubais and spoke about his benefits
The Russian authorities will benefit from the experience of Anatoly Chubais, one of the main ideologists of privatization in the 1990s, who was dismissed from the post of head of Rusnano.
The PolitNaviagtor correspondent reports this in an interview published by Komsomolskaya Pravda, said Russian writer and leader of the For Truth party Zakhar Prilepin.
The publication recalled that Prilepin spoke rather restrainedly about Chubais’ resignation.
“Don’t you agree that he is Russia’s main enemy?” the journalist asked.
“I simply rationally said that Anatoly Borisovich, as a person included in many Western clubs and structures, will certainly be useful for the Russian authorities in this case. And certainly earning cheap points, as if fighting with Chubais or Gorbachev, is not our thing. Why fight with someone who has been fired? This is not respecting yourself,” says Prilepin.
