The mayor's office did not include Venediktov in its quota in the Public Chamber of Moscow

Alexei Venediktov was not included in the list of 15 members of the Public Chamber of Moscow, which is approved by the mayor of the capital. Earlier, Sergei Sobyanin appointed the former editor-in-chief of Ekho Moskvy twice.

Former editor-in-chief of the Ekho Moskvy radio station, Alexei Venediktov, was not included in the list of 15 members of the Public Chamber of Moscow, approved by the mayor of the city, Sergei Sobyanin.

Alexey Venediktov has been a member of the capital's OP since 2016. He was a member of the second and third convocations of the House. In 2016 and 2019, Mayor Sergei Sobyanin approved his candidacy by decree.

“Under the current conditions, it would be strange if the mayor offered me to enter the OP according to his quota,” Alexei Venediktov told RBC. He added that several public organizations made him offers to nominate him, but after the liquidation of Ekho Moskvy, they did not get in touch.
