Another directive concerned ensuring maximum legitimacy of the upcoming elections,” the agency’s interlocutors say.

The report about the meeting and the indicators was confirmed by several sources. Informants clarify that officials who do not fulfill the plan risk “repeating the fate of the former vice-mayor of Nizhnevartovsk Oleg Khotinetsky, who was dismissed due to the failure of the election of the Tyumen governor in the municipality.”

A request has been sent to the Internal Policy Department. A response is awaited.
