Several high-ranking Russian officials, the risk to depart from civil service because of the ambition to tell the word in science. Vladimir Putin is outraged that, contrary to his written recommendations, the staff of the presidential Administration, the Ministry of defence, Ministry of education, the FSB and other agencies was recently elected academicians and corresponding members of Russian Academy of Sciences.

“If they are great scientists, I’ll have to give them the opportunity to do science, because this activity is more important administrative,” – said the President.
an Unexpected message was voiced at a meeting of the presidential Council on science and education, gathered in the Kremlin to discuss the final version of the strategy for scientific and technological development of the Russian Federation.
Earlier for civil servants seems to be considered prestigious to have a degree in the relevant field. And so the title of academician and is supposed to guarantee awe-struck subordinates and the respect of his superiors: “This is crazy man! Without it can not do!”
However, numerous scandals with fake academic titles and questionable theses (the latest vivid example is the head of the Ministry of culture Vladimir Medinsky), it seems, took the President out. Realizing that the fight with candidates and doctors of Sciences can fully decapitate ministries and agencies, Putin launched a preemptive strike by civil servants, claims to be called scientific elite.
Waiting, when will the discussion about the strategy the President has reminded that last year turned to his colleagues and to the President of the Academy of Sciences with one simple, as it seemed, a request to stop the vicious practice to elect the officials in the elected bodies of the RAS (that is, not to give them the title of academician and corresponding member)
a recommendation of GDP reasoned priorities. If the person is in the civil service, especially at upper levels, it needs “to seriously carry out its administrative duties”, and scientific activities to engage solely in your free time. “But fair people it actually doesn’t remain”, – said the President. So either the civil service goes down the drain, or scientific activity is a sham.
However, some colleagues – and then Putin listed a number of departments in particular, Administration of President, Ministry of defense, Ministry of interior, Ministry of education, FSB – missed his recommendations on deaf ears. They participated in the elections held at the end of October 2016, and was elected.

- Tell me, why did you do it? – Putin turned to a discouraged President of RAS Vladimir Fortova – that They are such large scientists that the Academy without them can not do? This is the first question. And second – what do I do now?
the memory of the journalists Vladimir Putin for the first time publicly asked such indeed hamlet’s question. Yes, even offered someone to solve it for him.

On Fortova didn’t have a face. “All they said they received permission…” – he muttered distractedly.
- the Question is not, ‘ interrupted the GDP, They really are major scientists that should be lenkorani and academics?
They passed through the entire competition without exemptions and exceptions.
- You did not answer my question – again interrupted the President and continued his Jesuit interrogation: – So they’re great scientists?
the Status of Vladimir Fortov looked absolutely hopeless. It’s like he’s simultaneously got the checkmate. To recognize officials of the major scientists of the Kapitza level or Zhores Alferov, he did not allow conscience. To say that they are not, is an honor. Indeed, in this case, it turns out that the Academy of Sciences distributes high academic ranks to anybody.
They deserve what they chose, finally, whispered the President of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
Putin is a bloodthirsty smile.
- So they’re great scientists? – again he asked.
- it Turns out so, – could no longer resist the FORTS.
- Okay, I will not torment you more, finally, relented President. However, for officials-academicians Fortov knocked out of recognition did not promise anything good.
- I will have to give them the opportunity to do science – summed GDP – Apparently, their scientific activity is more important than the performance of some routine administrative duties in the organs of power and administration.
After this discussion none of the participants couldn’t remember why actually going to the presidential Council at the Kremlin. Sitting at the table officials frantically thinking about his scientific titles and degrees, and wondering who exactly will be affected the President’s decision – only recently elected academicians and chinchorros or everybody? And whether it is, for example, the Academy of natural Sciences, whose members are, in particular, the head of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov and the assistant GDP Andrei Belousov?
Vladimir Putin, emerging after a meeting of the Council to journalists, clarified its position on this matter: the Directive applies only to those civil servants (including governors), who were elected in wounds after the recommendations not to do so. “These recommendations were given in October of 2015″, – said the head of state. According to him, the question in this case is about discipline, which the public authorities must remain at the proper level. “Those who chose creative research work, I want to wish you success,” – said the GDP.
Vladimir Fortov, in turn, explained that the Academy of Sciences can not withdraw its decision back and to deprive the high titles of those officials who want to sacrifice the science to stay in the civil service. “The law is not retroactive,” he spread his hands.
From the file “MK”: this year lenkorani the Russian Academy of Sciences have, for example, the Deputy Minister of internal Affairs of the Russian Federation Alexander Savenkov, head of the Department of registration and archival funds of FSB of the Russian Federation Vasily Khristoforov, an academician, Deputy Minister of education Alexey Lopatin.
