the Dismissal of four senior officials, who in this year’s new members ran against the advice of President Vladimir Putin, occurred on Monday as a bombshell, although it was predictable. Why just do not foresee themselves disgraced officials? Alas, they chose to remain silent. How did it happen so that members of the RAS, with the support of his superiors, soon fell out of favor?

- You know, all lit up, I can’t say anything, please forgive me, – Deputy Manager of the President Konstantin Kotenko was the only one of the four ex-officials, who tried though as-that to comment on the situation. And to the question of a possible transfer to another post he replied in the negative.

the Reasons of carelessness on the ballot for the wounds of the Executive may be several. First, and always did everything. All the great scientists because of their exclusivity necessarily combined with the scientific activities of high position and eventually was elected to the Academy of Sciences. Take University, which was listed as state Councilor, and this did not prevent him to carry out research.

as the chief of the medical Department of the presidential administration, Konstantin Kotenko, he, according to the new current colleagues at the Russian Academy of Sciences, spent his life in scientific researches, many of which were closed, the military medical orientation. He could not them not to engage, as directed by the Institute. Burnazyan (Federal medical biophysical center named. A. I. Burnazyan).

Or Vasily Khristoforov, the head of the Department of archival funds of the FSB, which combined work in the Institute of Russian history. Yes, everyone knows him in the Academy as a great archivist, who discovered hundreds of archival cases of repression. His public service and science were inseparable.

Alexander Fisun, chief of the main military medical Directorate of the defense Ministry also has combined public service with leadership of the Department of ambulatory assistance of Institute of improvement of doctors Medical education and clinical center named after P. Mandryka. It has taken them a long way from a specialist of the Baltic fleet to the chief medical officer of the Ministry of defense. And further to combine these two posts, if not wished even in “academics”.

But whose scientific merit and have not remembered me, none of the respondents is Deputy interior Minister Alexander Savenkova. The head of the Investigative Department of the Ministry of interior has become famous only to those that came (upon request) to the hereditary nobility by the great mercy of the head of the Russian Imperial house Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna. The petitioner was even awarded the Military order of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, first class. At least this information is available in the popular online encyclopedia.

Oh, Yes, of course, was, if at first, all these people showed themselves on the scientific field, and then became officials, not Vice versa. But on the other hand, again. according to sources in the Academy, all of these people brought from their more senior chiefs letters of recommendation, a few pages each. So, to ignore the order of Putin began at the very top?

the Question is, who’s next, worried about all the candidates remaining in the black list of the President, who by the way, was never published. There were rumors that the next “the dismissal”, the Deputy Minister of education, he is the newly-minted academician Alexey Lopatin. And today he was fired by Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.

up To this point in the RAS assured: Lopatina really cannot be considered a candidate for dismissal from high office, as the President recommended not to run in the new members of the Academy. And the Deputy Minister of education to those called anymore because it is already a member of the RAS since 2011. Besides, it is among the top ten specialists in the world in its field.

about all the others in the Presidium of the RAS told us: “If you open the public service Act, it says that officials are allowed to do three things: science, education and creative activities. If you look at the Charter of the Russian Academy of Sciences, we should consider the candidacy of the person that wrote the statement. But if a person has a recommendation from his supervisor or from the President of the country, he makes a decision, that’s all. Then everything goes strictly according to the law: six discussions and a secret ballot. Well, the last word is always with the President.”
