Anatoly Borisovich Chubais (Russian: Анато́лий Бори́сович Чуба́йс; born 16 June 1955) is a Russian Prime Minister and businessman. With heavy US intervention[1], he worked on privatisation of the former USSR, which led to economic collapse and average life expectancy falling steeply. Even 30 years later, he is still Russia's most hated man[2],but still has connections to the power apparatus.
“We created a virtual open shop for thievery at a national level and for capital flight in terms of hundreds of billions of dollars, and the raping of natural resources and industries on a scale which I doubt has ever taken place in human history.”
E. Wayne Merry [3]
a U.S. Embassy official in Moscow during the 1990s.
Career
From 1994 to 1996, Chubais was an elected member of the State Duma (parliament) and a member of the Russian Choice bloc, which supported Boris Yeltsin. As a member of Boris Yeltsin's administration in the early 1990s,[4], he was a key figure in introducing market economy, working with Anders Åslund, the IMF and American advisors from Harvard.
He ran Yeltsin’s successful presidential campaign in 1996 and became the Chief of Staff after the election. Chubais and his clique of political and financial power brokers, known as the “Chubais clan,” was responsible for privatization in Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union, creating the system of oligarchs.
In the government of Prime Minister Viktor Chernomydrin, Chubais served as Deputy Prime Minster as well as Finance Minister. He led reforms of the tax and pension system. Chubais was dismissed as Finance Minister in November 1997. When Chernomydrin was unexpectedly dismissed in March 1998, Chubais also lost the post of Deputy Prime Minister.
After Active Politics
After that, Chubais left politics, and from 1998 to 2008, he headed the state-owned electrical power monopoly RAO UES. A dramatic blackout in the Russian capital Moscow on 25 May 2005, while Chubais headed the electricity conglomerate, did little to help his popularity. The city was paralyzed and underground trains were stalled for several hours.
A roadside bomb, followed by gunfire salvo, was aimed at Chubais’s car in 2005, but the assassination attempt was a failure and he was unharmed. Three individuals, including Vladimir Kvachkov, a colonel in the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, were tried for the plot, but later acquitted. Kvachkov ran for parliamentary office while in prison and won 44,000 votes, though it was not sufficient for election.
For many years, Chubais consistently ranked at the top of Russia’s "most hated man" polls[5].
Despite this, Chubais is still part of the power system. In 2008, Russian president Dmitry Medvedev appointed Chubais as director-general of the state [[nanotechnology[[ company, Rusnano - part of the Kremlin’s strategy to find alternatives to fossil fuels.
Since September 2008 he has been a member of the advisory body of financial services giant JPMorgan Chase & Co.
His Wikipedia entry has been managed, presumably by professionals, and does not mention anything negative.
