About Gorbenko's connections

Regarding Gorbenko's connections in the government, it was said that due to the need to publish adopted documents in Rossiyskaya Gazeta, the leadership of the publication has to work closely with representatives of the legal department of the Russian government.

This department was commanded in 2009 by Anastasia Rakova, who was part of the team of the Deputy Prime Minister in charge of the apparatus of the Moscow government.

Gorbenko and Sobyanin met in 2005.

After the election of Sobyanin as Moscow mayor

15.10.2010 Russian President Dmitry Medvedev proposed to the Moscow City Duma for approval a new candidacy of the mayor - Sobyanin.

21.11.2010 Sobyanin officially assumed the office of the capital's mayor. Five days later, he took Gorbenko as his deputy, entrusting him with the media, interregional cooperation, advertising, sports and tourism.

The opinion is expressed that this appointment hasthe attitude of Rakov, who took the post of vice-mayor and headed the government apparatus of the capital.

According to the new position, the press service of the mayor and a number of departments (physical education and sports, media and advertising, national politics, relations with religious organizations) fell under Gorbenko's supervision.

As Kommersant's correspondents noted, he was tasked with bringing order to the Moscow outdoor advertising market. Gorbenko also had to figure out how efficiently the Moscow government spent the money allocated for the maintenance of the media.

Gorbenko Alexander Nikolaevich, Government of Moscow

27.02.2011 Gorbenko's position was renamed, his competence as deputy mayor included the media, interregional cooperation, sports and tourism.

Since the beginning of 2011, Gorbenko was introduced to the board of directors of the TV Center. This federal TV channel has only one shareholder - the Moscow government. Then in January, Sobyanin was elected to the post of chairman of the board of directors, and Gorbenko - to the position of his deputy.

In particular, the Stolitsa TV channel was reorganized, and a round-the-clock information channel Moscow 24 was created on its basis. From "Evening Moscow", the newspaper "Tverskaya, 13" and publications available in the mayor's office, by the city governmenta new media holding was created.

Expansion of responsibilities

By the fall of 2011, Gorbenko Alexander Nikolaevich expanded his powers, he was instructed to represent the mayor's office when considering applications for organizing various actions and rallies in Moscow.

In the publication Sostav.ru, in connection with this, there was a statement that Gorbenko was instructed to head a kind of "propaganda department", which will allow the capital's mayor's office to provide more effective confrontation in the information war.

The press devoted quite a lot of space to the problems of coordination at the end of 2011 - beginning of 2012 by the Moscow mayor's office with the organizing committee of the routes of marches and actions during protest rallies "For Fair Elections".

The oppositionists said that meetings to discuss the details of holding rallies almost always ended late at night.

Gorbenko has repeatedly publicly declared the right of Muscovites to carry out authorized opposition actions.

When a discussion arose within the capital's government about the possibility of tightening legislation on holding rallies, which always end in damage to the city, Gorbenko expressed the idea that "the amount of costs to cover this damage is not critical for the capital's budget, while street activity helps build a sustainable civil democratic society."
