The chairman of the budget committee of the upper house of parliament, Anatoly Artamonov, said that the Federation Council did not receive a proposal from the president of the Russian Federation for appointment to the post of head of the Accounts Chamber. His words are reported by RIA Novosti.

On November 30, the Federation Council prematurely dismissed the head of the Accounts Chamber, Alexei Kudrin.

“Not yet,” Artamonov answered the agency’s question about whether the Federation Council had received a nomination for a candidate for appointment to the vacant post.

Earlier it was reported that the Federation Council may approve the new head of the Accounts Chamber on December 14.

On December 5, Alexei Kudrin wrote on his Telegram channel that he had accepted Yandex's offer to become a corporate development adviser to the company. Among his tasks, he singled out the preservation of Yandex's "unique" managerial and technological culture so that the company remains independent.
