Likhachev Alexey Evgenievich is mentioned in the press:

Bomb in the center of St. Petersburg

A TV report on how the Akademik Lomonosov floating nuclear power plant project is progressing successfully (and they have been building a nuclear barge since 2006) turned into a curiosity: journalists stumbled upon a certain room, which turned out to be a special nuclear fuel storage facility. And, as it turned out, the storage is already full. And since there are two nuclear reactor, then the amount of uranium seems to be considerable. At the same time, the nearest residential buildings are within easy reach, and the Hermitage is located two kilometers away.
At the "dead" anchor
The confrontation began back in the spring, when on March 15, deputies of the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg voted against a request to the governor to load nuclear fuel into the reactor of a floating nuclear power plant. It seems that before that, Rostekhnadzor and Rosenergoatom nevertheless confirmed that the loading of fuel into the reactor is planned from March 15 to March 28, 2017, and the city administration in response agreed to load the fuel and start the reactor. However, then Rosatom reassured everyone, as it seemed, promising not to load nuclear fuel. “The loading and launch of the reactors of the floating nuclear power plant in St. Petersburg was prevented by the concern of Russia’s neighbors in the Baltic region that there is no such concept as a “non-self-propelled floating nuclear facility” in international maritime law,” Aleksey Likhachev, the new head of Rosatom, told reporters at the end of July. . It turns out that he cheated?

Bomb in the center of St. Petersburg

All past summer there were heated debates in St. Petersburg: is it possible to load fuel into the reactors of the Akademik Lomonosov floating nuclear power plant in a densely populated area of ​​St. Petersburg? Deputies of the St. Petersburg Legislative Assembly, as well as environmentalists and simply caring people, asked questions to the nuclear scientists. As a result, a petition was created, which was supported by more than 11 thousand people.

Even if "Bushehr" is not to everyone's liking

Tehran, with the active support of Moscow, has defended and will continue to expand the foothold for peaceful nuclear energy on the coast of the Persian Gulf. In fact, this was the meaning of the symbolic ceremony with the participation of the head of Rosatom Alexei Likhachev and Vice President of Iran, President of the Iranian Atomic Energy Organization Ali Akbar Salehi, which took place next to the operating power unit of the Bushehr nuclear power plant and attracted the attention of the world press.

The head of the corporation noted that sanctions have harmed the development of nuclear energy in countries that themselves adhere to them.

Russia's foreign trade turnover this year may remain at previous year's level - Ministry of Economic Development

“We continue to maintain our forecast for the volume of foreign trade indicators of the Russian Federation for this year: according to the methodology of the Central Bank, this is $ 863 billion (plus 2% compared to last year), according to customs statistics preliminary estimate - $ 835 billion (approximately plus 1.8% compared to last year). The trend is that for 10 months we had plus 3% in customs statistics. However, throughout November, there is a drop in the volume of foreign trade both in terms of imports and exports.

The Ministry of Economic Development is tired of feeding trade representatives

In trade missions, which are traditionally considered enviable jobs for international economists, they introduce a system of remuneration, adopted, for example, by sales managers - depending on the target performance indicators (KPI). Deputy Minister of Economic Development Alexei Likhachev said that the Ministry of Economic Development plans to link the quality of work of trade representatives with payment, and inefficient trade missions will be closed.

Alexey Likhachev in October 2016 by decree of President V.V. Putin was appointed CEO State Corporation Rosatom.

He considers himself a product of the Soviet era, but is not nostalgic for the USSR. He is a person who is used to “studying for 6 to get 5”, knows how to look at the root of the problem and always speaks out politically correctly.

Likhachev is quite young, he managed to be a deputy and an honorary professor, and actively demonstrate his talents in the economic field. What did you do acting head"Rosatom" before he was elected to a high position?

A native of a city that is not on the map

Alexey Evgenievich was born on December 23, 1962 in a classic Soviet family of an engineer and teacher. It happened in the town of Arzamas-16 (now Sarov) in the Nizhny Novgorod region. The city is still a closed administrative entity. The status arose in 1946 after the transfer of the secret KB-11 here, which was engaged in the development of the Soviet atomic bomb. The city, which changed its name several times, did not appear on any map.

At school, Likhachev's mother was his class teacher. According to the memoirs of the statesman himself, in order to get an A from her, one had to know at 6. The principle of the Soviet teacher, the curiosity and perseverance of the student played a role: he, among several other classmates, graduated from school with a gold medal without tutors. In Soviet times, this was considered very honorable. was engaged different types sport in youth and adulthood.

Despite its rather provincial position, the town was one of the Russian centers scientific thought. This is where nuclear weapons were made. Possessing good school knowledge and, probably, succumbing to the romance of the "peaceful atom", Likhachev decided to devote his life to physics and entered the Gorky State University. N.I. Lobachevsky.

Now educational institution is called the Nizhny Novgorod State University (NNGU). It is not only the largest university Nizhny Novgorod and regional research institutes, but also included in the list top universities CIS. For study, Likhachev chose the Faculty of Radiophysics, which he graduated in 1985.

Engineer, economist and public figure

After graduating from the institute, yesterday's graduate had to work off the money invested in his studies by the state. Likhachev got a job at the Gorky Instrument-Making Research Institute, where he worked in 1985-1987. The romance of scientific research and development quickly gave way to pragmatism, and already in 1988 Alexey Evgenievich completed his second education, this time in economics. He studied at the same university. A few years later, he defended his Ph.D., and then his doctoral dissertation in a new specialty. His whole life will be connected with the economy.

In 1987-1992 Aleksey Likhachev was engaged in social work and confidently walked along the Komsomol line of the party: at first he was the secretary of the Komsomol committee of the instrument-making research institute in Gorky, and then went on to be promoted to the local city committee of the Komsomol, where he worked together with Sergei Kiriyenko.

A year after the collapse of the USSR, Likhachev, together with several school friends, organized insurance company"Aval", where Aleksey Evgenievich worked as a manager since 1992 and gained new experience. In 1993, he ran for the State Duma for the first time, but did not overcome the 5% threshold. In 1996, at the age of 30, he became a deputy of the city council of the city of Gorky (or rather, then already Nizhny Novgorod). A little later, he was elected as an adviser to the governor on insurance and investment issues. Until May 2000, he was a member of the Board of Directors of NSKB Garantiya.

Since 2000, Likhachev's career as a statesman began to seriously develop:

• in 2000-2007, during two convocations of the State Duma, he was engaged in lawmaking in it (from the SPS party - the Union of Right Forces, which ceased to exist in 2008);
• in 2007-2008 acted as an adviser to the Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation;
• in 2008-2010 acted as director of the department for analysis and regulation of foreign economic activity of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation;
• Since 2010, he has served as Deputy Minister of Economic Development, and in early 2015, the statesman was promoted to First Deputy Minister.
• A year and a half later, in the fall of 2016, he was appointed by presidential decree to the post of head of the promising state corporation Rosatom.

Results of activity in the economic and state fields

Aleksey Likhachev considers himself exclusively an economist and prefers to stay as far away from political squabbles as possible. At the Ministry of Economic Development, its scope of work included issues of trade negotiations with other states

rystvo. Among these issues is the formation of a free trade zone, the formation and improvement of the Eurasian Economic Union. Likhachev was engaged in negotiations on Russia's accession to the WTO, actively spoke in the press on issues professional activity. It was assumed that he would be appointed a member of the Eurasian Economic Commission.

Alexei Evgenievich also oversaw public procurement issues, and repeatedly encountered Rosatom cases in his work. He is involved in the development of the law on public procurement N94, which was created to combat corruption in this area. Likhachev speaks of the result of his work with irony and hope for future improvements, since it is obvious that the law did not live up to expectations. He advocated a tougher fight against intellectual piracy.

Awarded with two state awards:

• the Order of Honor for high achievements in state activity;
• medal "For contribution to the creation of the Eurasian Economic Union".

Alexey Likhachev is actively working on expanding economic influence Russia and sincerely believes that the borders that have arisen between states former USSR is a misunderstanding that needs to be cleared up. Despite the prevailing political reality, this line is inherent in both economists and politicians of our state.

Appointment of Likhachev as CEO of Rosatom

Rosatom is one of the world's largest corporations in the field of nuclear energy. The state holding includes about 360 specialized enterprises. The range of issues dealt with by the organization is very wide. It includes:

• nuclear energy production;
• research and practical work in the field of energy, including waste disposal and processing;
• design and construction of nuclear reactors (including abroad);
• functioning of the nuclear weapons complex;
• civilian nuclear icebreaker fleet.

The importance of Rosatom in the nuclear industry is very high. The corporation is in second place in the world in terms of uranium reserves and in fourth place in terms of nuclear energy production.

As the manager of Rosatom, Likhachev replaced Sergei Kiriyenko, who was appointed to serve in the presidential administration. Statesmen are united by acquaintance and Team work still in the city committee of the Komsomol in Gorky, and then in the regional association "New Force" SPS. Likhachev is considered a protege of Kiriyenko and claims that new leader corporations will listen to the opinion and authority of the old. Perhaps there is a reason for this. At the very least, the program that regulates the activities of Rosatom has been approved for the next 6 years (until 2023), and Likhachev will have to follow it in whole or in part.

Companions in the State Duma consider Likhachev not just a successor to Kiriyenko, but also notice that both figures are similar in character - hard-working, intelligent and purposeful. In the Ministry of Economy, Alexey Evgenievich dealt with issues of foreign economic policy. It is the external direction of activity, with the light hand of Kiriyenko, that is considered a priority for the functioning of the corporation. The aforementioned long-term development program of Rosatom, approved in 2008, is based on the following principles:

• priority of the international direction;
• development and development of new products related not only to energy, but also to other areas of science (for example, medicine);
• optimization of management processes;
• reduction of production costs while maintaining the quality level.

External tours "Rosatom" for the coming years

In addition to being appointed CEO - in fact, an executive manager - Likhachev was also included in the supervisory board of the corporation. There is some contradiction here, because he will have to fulfill the decisions that he himself, together with other members of the council (there are about 10 of them), made.

Likhachev will continue the external course of "Rosatom", taken by Kiriyenko. The corporation has a formed portfolio of orders for the next decade, aimed at 4 dozen countries. In particular, a major contract is planned with Egypt for the construction of a nuclear power plant. At the same time, the government recommended that the corporation limit scientific and practical cooperation with the United States. It was pointed out that the admission of American specialists to Russian nuclear facilities, as well as the exchange of information, is not advisable.

The life and work of Likhachev is closely connected with the capital. He considers his current activity useful and interesting. At the same time, the city to which all roads lead is still not Moscow, but Nizhny Novgorod. After the election of Likhachev as a deputy of the State Duma, his connection with the city is not interrupted. His family lives in Nizhny Novgorod, and at UNN the state-level manager is listed as a professor. The head of Rosatom has a wife and three sons. The elder one works at Hydromash, and the younger one follows in his father's footsteps - he studies at the Nizhny Novgorod branch of the Higher School of Economics and the Moscow Academy of Foreign Trade.

At Rosatom, Sergei Kiriyenko was replaced by the first deputy head of the Ministry of Economy, Alexei Likhachev, they have known each other since their Komsomol careers in Gorky. In recent years, the successor has had almost no contact with the nuclear industry, but after a long oversight of foreign trade, the issues of Rosatom's foreign expansion may be close to him. At the same time, according to Kommersant, Sergei Kiriyenko himself will retain influence in the industry.

On Wednesday, Vladimir Putin signed a decree appointing First Deputy Minister of Economy Alexei Likhachev as the CEO of Rosatom and introduced him to the supervisory board of the state corporation. Mr. Kiriyenko also retained his seat on the Supervisory Board.

Moreover, Kommersant's sources, who are familiar with the situation, were waiting until late in the evening for another presidential decree to appear - on the appointment of Sergei Kiriyenko as chairman of the Supervisory Board of Rosatom. Now this position is occupied by the ex-Speaker of the State Duma, the ex-head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Russian Plenipotentiary Representative in the Contact Group on Settling the Situation in Ukraine Boris Gryzlov. De facto, another appointment of Mr. Kiriyenko would confirm that "from the president's point of view, he remains responsible for the nuclear industry," one of Kommersant's interlocutors explained. Rosatom does not comment on the possibility of such a development of events.

Mr. Likhachev's candidacy was relatively unexpected: in the rumors about who would replace Mr. Kiriyenko at Rosatom that had been circulating since the end of September, his name had not surfaced. The decision on the appointment was not easy: according to a Kommersant source close to the presidential administration, Mr. Likhachev was not the only candidate: the option of appointing the president of the NRC Kurchatov Institute (one of the few industry structures outside Rosatom) Mikhail Kovalchuk was also considered.

As a result, Aleksey Likhachev arranged for government officials and the Presidential Administration. So, according to Kommersant, his appointment was supported by Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin, whose jurisdiction was officially assigned to the nuclear industry (they interacted within the framework of intergovernmental commissions), the candidacy did not raise questions from the presidential assistant for economic issues Andrei Belousov (Mr. Likhachev was his deputy at the Ministry of Economy). Another federal official adds that Mr. Kiriyenko's successor has inherited a "beautiful legacy" that "does not need to be shoveled up again."

On the whole, Aleksey Likhachev looks like a very suitable candidate to ensure continuity in the management of the industry. According to the official biography, his successor has known Sergei Kiriyenko since the late 1980s, when they both worked in the Gorky regional committee of the Komsomol. According to a government official, Messrs. Likhachev and Kiriyenko have maintained friendly relations for more than 20 years.

But formally, Alexei Likhachev has so far been connected with the nuclear industry by little - his birthplace in Arzamas-75, one of the most famous nuclear "closed cities" (now Sarov), and a short work in the 1980s in the defense research institute in Gorky. Already in the 2010s, while supervising foreign economic activity (FEA) at the Ministry of Economy, Mr. Likhachev occasionally clashed with Rosatom. So, one of Kommersant's sources mentions that the state corporation interacted with an official on the issue of introducing attaché posts for the nuclear industry in embassies and trade missions of the Russian Federation.

Another episode of the intersection of the careers of Sergei Kiriyenko and Alexei Likhachev is the Union of Right Forces party. It was from the Union of Right Forces that the new head of Rosatom entered the State Duma in 2000 (then he was a member of the United Russia faction in parliament). In the same year, he became co-chairman of the Nizhny Novgorod branch of the Union of Right Forces and authorized to conduct the presidential election campaign of Vladimir Putin in the region. As a deputy of the State Duma, Mr. Likhachev took part in negotiations on the accession of the Russian Federation to the WTO, in the work of the Committee of Parliamentary Cooperation "Russia-European Union" and the commission of the parliamentary assembly of the Union of Russia and Belarus on economic policy.

In 2007, Alexei Likhachev became an adviser to the head of the Ministry of Economy, Elvira Nabiullina, a year later he headed the department for analysis and regulation of foreign economic activity, where he was involved in bringing legislation into line with WTO standards and reforming trade missions. His further career is also completely connected with the topic of foreign trade. In July 2010, he became Deputy Minister of Economy and Chief Negotiator for Russia in the WTO, responsible for conducting trade negotiations from the Russian Federation. For example, as a result of negotiations with Vietnam under his leadership, the supply of products under the "secret code" has significantly increased, and as an additional agreement to the free trade zone Russian business received special preferences. For Rosatom, which in recent years has declared active expansion abroad (construction and maintenance of nuclear power plants, fuel supplies, etc.), the experience of a negotiator obtained by Alexei Likhachev at the Ministry of Economy may be useful.

Education

In 1992-2000, Likhachev was the manager of the Nizhny Novgorod social and industrial insurance company Aval; Deputy of the city council of people's deputies of the city of Nizhny Novgorod; Governor's Insurance and Investment Adviser.

From 2000 to 2007 he was a member of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation.
