  • Kesarev Memo | New Russian Government | January 2020
    Kesarev phone: +32 (2) 899 4699 e-mail: [email protected] www.kesarev.com NEW RUSSIAN CABINET: STAFF “REVOLUTION” INSTEAD OF STRUCTURAL REFORMS? Summary On January 21, 2020, President Putin approved the structure of the new Russian Government and appointed Deputy Prime Ministers and federal Ministers. New Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin was appointed on January 16. What are the key specifics of the new Cabinet? The key specific feature of the new Russian Cabinet is that while the structural changes are minimal, the staff reshuffles proved to be radical, both in terms of the number of new people appointed to top offices and change of political status of key Cabinet members (how close they are to the President). This is an extremely atypical decision for Putin, compared to previous Cabinets over the entire period of his stay in power. Earlier, as a rule, the Cabinets included influential figures close to the President and personally associated with him, and a system of checks and balances between different elite groups existed. But at the same time, the decision to change the approach to the Cabinet appointments is logical in the context of a broader presidential “staff policy” over recent years - the so-called “technocratisation” of power (the appointment of young “technocratic” governors, the penetration of such figures into Medvedev’s second Cabinet, the appointment of the head of the Presidential Administration, a “technocrat” Anton Vayno during the Parliamentary election campaign in 2016 and the launch of “Leaders of Russia” contest in order to select and train a “succession pool” for the top positions in the federal and regional civil bureaucracy).

  • The Images of the EU Framed by Russian Officials in Social Media
    The images of the EU framed by Russian officials in social media Viktor Lambin University of Helsinki Faculty of Social Sciences European and Nordic Studies Master’s Thesis May 2021 Abstract Faculty: Faculty of Social Sciences Degree programme: Master’s Programme in European and Nordic Studies Study track: Master of Social Sciences track Author: Viktor Lambin Title: The images of the EU framed by Russian officials in social media Level: Master’s Thesis Month and year: May 2021. Number of pages: 104 Keywords: The EU, Russia, social media, identity construction, discourse, officials Where deposited: Social Sciences, European and Nordic studies, Russian studies Additional information: Abstract: The contemporary crisis between Russia and the EU, reflects, among other things, in the identity construction in both European and Russian domestic discourses. In view of the current conflict between Russia and Europe, it is crucial to comprehend how both actors perceive each other and the reality(ies) of the current status of their bilateral relations. According to the post-structuralists, foreign policies are dependent on the representations of “us” and “them”, articulated in national discourses. Such constructs are often represented through mass media, and given the growing adaptation of IT technologies, social media specifically become a suitable platform for the distribution of the images of “us” and “them” for both domestic and foreign audiences. The study seeks to identify which images of the EU are framed by Russian officials in social media and whether such frames correlate with some aspects of Russian domestic and foreign agendas. The thesis focuses on the images of the EU framed by Russian officials in the period between March 2019 and December 2019, a drastic period of EU-Russia relations, triggered by the Ukrainian crisis.

  • January 29, 2020 the Honorable Joseph R. Biden President United
    January 29, 2020 The Honorable Joseph R. Biden President United States of America The White House Washington, DC 20500 Dear President Biden: I am writing to you to encourage the United States to sanction corrupt Russian allies of President Putin as part of your overall approach to Russia. I was encouraged by your initial call with Mr. Putin and your recognition that Alexey Navalny’s arrest was unwarranted and an unjust attempt to silence Russia’s most prominent opposition leader. I’ve worked with Navalny since 2010 and served as Executive Director of his Anti-Corruption Foundation, which exposed staggering corruption within the Putin regime. Before Navalny’s arrest, our team prepared a video that exposed Putin’s wealth and hubris. The video focuses on a $1.3 billion palace that Putin’s allies -- businessmen and heads of large state-owned companies who owe their positions to Putin -- built for him personally. A string of investigations shows that the same oligarchs who built Putin’s palace also supply his mistresses and their parents, and Putin’s children, with yachts, apartments and multi-million dollar-a-year-jobs at the companies they control. Navalny’s video expose has been watched over 100 million times. That’s more than half the population of Russia. This helps explain why so many Russians -- young and old alike -- have taken to the streets to protest the regime. Everyone understands that as long as Putin’s kleptocratic regime controls Russia, the people of Russia have no future. For years, Alexey Navalny has advocated sanctions against individuals who play key roles in aiding and abetting Putin and who take the lead in the persecution of those who seek to express their opinions freely and expose corruption in the system.
