Judging by randomly “pop-up” photos, one might think that Anatoly Chubais leads an almost retired lifestyle: he goes to the supermarket, stands in line at the ATM; distributes charitable assistance; sees friends.

In reality and abroad, Chubais remains Chubais. He is actively collecting money from his associates for a new grandiose project – creating a life plan for Russia and Russians in the “post-personalist period 2025-2040.” (presentation slide 3). That is, after Putin. Why Chubais believes that Putin will cease to be president of the Russian Federation by 2025 – history is silent.

Funds are collected from friends and acquaintances. Andrey Rappoport, the former head of FGC UES of Russia, has already transferred 100 thousand euros “within the September budget.”

What are the main points of Chubais’s plan for the “post-personalist period 2025-2040”?

Chubais and his associates plan to change the course of government in Russia from “power” to “legal”, as they call it, but at the same time point out that the first to lose power during the first democratic elections will be democrats (see presentation slide 16), that is Chubais considers all the past elections illegitimate, but expresses fear that the democrats, having taken power, may immediately lose it if they hold free elections.
