“Alexey Sitnikov is, of course, a respected political strategist. We met with him yesterday, he once again said that he would vote for me. He still helps me in some projects and meetings. But we have different visions of certain things in the campaign,” Sobchak said.
Sitnikov was initially announced as a member of Sobchak’s team, but at the end of October he left its headquarters, taking two-thirds of the staff with him. According to rumors, many of them had Ukrainian passports.
It is known that in 2009, Alexey Sitnikov advised Yulia Tymoshenko.
It is noteworthy that Sobchak’s first most resonant statements as a presidential candidate were statements about the legal belonging of Crimea to Ukraine. By the way, on the Rossiya 1 broadcast, the presidential candidate defiantly put on bracelets in the colors of the Ukrainian flag
At the last gubernatorial elections in Sevastopol, Sitnikov led the campaign of Dmitry Ovsyannikov, who won them with a disastrous turnout.
