During his work, a commission to regulate tariffs was created, the Kizlyar-Kizilyurt railway was completed, transit communication through the territory of Russia was established, and the telecommunications company TransTeleCom was created.

In 1998, a decree of the Government of the Russian Federation approved the “Concept of structural reform of federal railway transport,” which identified the main tasks and goals of restructuring the industry.

Appointment as Deputy Prime Minister

On May 19, 1999, Aksenenko was appointed First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation as part of the cabinet of Sergei Stepashin. Previously, Boris Yeltsin was considered by Boris Yeltsin as a candidate for the prime minister's post, which Duma Speaker Gennady Seleznev managed to announce publicly, but ultimately Stepashin's candidacy was submitted to the Duma.

Aksyonenko was actively lobbied by Tatyana Dyachenko, Abramovich and Mamut. There was a moment when Yeltsin called Seleznev (May 17, 1999) and said that Aksyonenko’s candidacy was being submitted to the Duma, which the Duma speaker announced at the plenary session. Everyone was noisy then, because Stepashin had already been nominated for the post of prime minister. To which Seleznev replied: “I washed my ears this morning.”

And it was like that. Tatyana went to see her father, and in her presence Yeltsin actually called Seleznev. When she came out, Boris Nikolaevich sent an adjutant to pick up the decree on Aksenenko, which he himself signed under Tatyana and sent to the Duma. They say that, without even knowing this, Tatyana Borisovna called Aksyonenko and told him to open the champagne.

Aksyonenko was not allowed to become president by circumstances: the Chubais group seriously opposed him. Yeltsin could not allow a split in power, and therefore in the end he found a compromise figure in Putin.

candidates for the post of Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation after the resignation of the government

E. M. Primakov in May 1999. However, B. N. Yeltsin kept him only in the role

a good substitute player: “Aksenenko seems to be suitable in all respects.

Decisive, firm, charming, knows how to talk to people, has been through a long

labor path, rose, as they say, from the ground. A strong leader. However

The Duma initially treats him with hostility and greets him with hostility. this one good

September 16, 1999 appointed First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation - Minister of Railways of the Russian Federation.

January 10, 2000 and. By presidential decree, Vladimir Putin dismissed Nikolai Aksenenko from the post of First Deputy Prime Minister and appointed him Minister of Railways.

On May 7, 2000, in connection with the assumption of office by President Putin, all members of the government resigned and became acting ministers until new ministers were appointed.

On October 19, 2001, Aksenenko was summoned to the Prosecutor General’s Office, where he was charged with exceeding official powers.

On October 23, he issued a statement in which he assured that he would contribute in every possible way to an objective investigation and establishment of the truth.

On October 13, 2003, the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation completed the investigation and sent a criminal case against Aksenenko to court. He is accused of committing crimes under paragraph “c” of Part 3 of Article 286 (exceeding official powers, committed with grave consequences), and paragraph “b” of Part 3 of Article 160 (embezzlement or embezzlement on a large scale) of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.”

Origin, marital status

From an interview. “We were seven brothers and six sisters. I am the youngest, thirteenth. Unfortunately, not everyone is alive... The difference between the eldest and the youngest is 24 years. The older sisters - they are now over seventy - treated me like their son... My father was a railway worker - an engineer, a locomotive driver... By the way, he did not advise me to go to college. He dissuaded me because he knew it was a hell of a job. I met my wife in college and have been together ever since. I was very lucky that fate brought me together with her. We managed to preserve each other’s feelings and perceptions as they were back in our student years. I must admit that this is largely due to my wife. As soon as I started working, I always had very little time left for my family. But family has never been in second place for me.” (Stringer, 2000)

Third-party assessments, characteristics

Aksenenko, having moved to the capital, quickly figured out who to be friends with and who to bet on. I bet on Abramovich - and I was not mistaken. As they say knowledgeable people, the collaboration between Aksenenko and Abramovich began back in 1992. The latter then headed the small enterprise "AVK". In 1997, Abramovich was already in charge of Sibneft and, with the help of Berezovsky, established strong connections in the Kremlin. Therefore, when the question arose about the candidacy of a new Minister of Railways, Aksenenko had no rivals. Soon after Nikolai Emelyanovich took over his new office, Sibneft received from the Ministry of Railways a preferential tariff for transporting oil abroad and used it, to the envy of other exporters, for a year.

Minister Aksenenko turned out to be a good manager. He has long considered his department a commercial enterprise that should develop, make a profit and develop new types of business. There's just one problem - he can't learn to distinguish his own wool from the state's. Having become a minister, Nikolai Emelyanovich immediately streamlined payments for transportation, 70 percent of which before him were made by barter. He achieved the participation of forwarding companies in the transportation process and the right to provide them with preferential tariffs. As a result, the Ministry of Railways got rid of in-kind payments, and firms began to receive real profits through benefits.

The minister reacts painfully to attacks from the outside, and to ensure that there are as few of them as possible, he pays for powerful PR in the media and throws dust in the eyes of taxpayers and the government with the help of all kinds of actions. It installs turnstiles at Moscow stations, declaring war on hares, sends hundreds of passenger cars to Chechnya to accommodate refugees, and launches comfortable electric trains every six months. (Stringer, 2000)

Dedicated to Aksenenko’s tenure in the ministerial chair a large number of investigative journalism. Among them are scams with bills of the Pension Fund, the sale of gasoline to Chechnya from the reserves of the Russian Railways, the purchase of rails in Japan through an offshore company in Cyprus... But the main investigations are devoted to the companies Eastern Fertiliger Trading, whose representative in Russia is the son of the minister Rustam, and CJSC PFG " Eurosib", which is headed by the minister's nephew Sergei. Both companies were mainly engaged in the transportation of goods and enjoyed excessive benefits. For example, Aksenenko allowed them to pay with “cash surrogates” and not with “real” money, and made discounts on the approved tariffs. For a long time there was a regulation that required all overseas transportation to be processed only with Transrail. (“Russia”, 2000)

"The Aksenenko Case"

A criminal case regarding abuses in the Ministry of Railways was initiated on October 9, 2001. On October 19, Nikolai Aksenenko was summoned to the Prosecutor General's Office, where he was charged with abuse of power. The head of the Ministry of Railways refused to sign the order to bring charges, as well as a written undertaking not to leave the place. However, the prosecutor's office is convinced that this does not change the case - he remains accused. In addition, the prosecutor's office claims that they are already studying the materials of the audit of the Accounts Chamber, which revealed several violations on the part of the management of the Ministry of Railways: illegal spending of 700 billion rubles intended for “northern delivery” in 1997, non-payment of taxes in the amount of 11 billion rubles for 2000 and the purchase of apartments by persons who have nothing to do with the Ministry of Railways. “Aksenenko’s refusal to sign a resolution charging him and a written undertaking not to leave does not change his status as a defendant in this criminal case,” the Prosecutor General’s Office stated. After his visit to the State Enterprise, Aksenenko organized a press conference at which he announced that the charges were related to the economic activities of the Ministry of Railways - the only department in Russia that combines the functions of an economic entity and a state regulatory body.

Aksenenko's situation is very serious. As the famous lawyer Yuri Korinevsky, who defended the former head of Roskomdragmet Evgeny Bychkov in the Golden ADA case, says, “the investigator can now, with the sanction of Ustinov or his deputy, remove the accused from his position.” And a representative of the presidential administration told Vedomosti that “the situation when the ministry is headed by a person against whom a criminal investigation is being conducted is abnormal.” The Kremlin is clearly not going to protect the unfortunate minister. “Everyone is equal before the law,” Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration Dmitry Kozak said on October 22, adding that Aksenenko was in vain “appealing to the executive power,” trying to avoid prosecutorial attention.

The head of the Ministry of Railways of the Russian Federation, Nikolai Aksenenko, “is confident that in the near future the groundlessness” of the charges brought against him will be established. The minister’s statement on October 23 said: “I will do my best to contribute to an objective investigation and establishment of the truth. The board of the ministry and I, as its chairman, will continue the line of preserving the integrity of the industry, carrying out structural reform that has received the approval of the government and the Presidium of the State Council of the Russian Federation. I believe that Until the end of the investigation, this statement will be the last on my part, and I hope that others will also responsible persons will be guided by the law, common sense and generally accepted ethics, which does not allow premature conclusions to be drawn."

Official statement from the PRESS SERVICE of the Ministry of Railways of the Russian Federation

“Some media outlets have disseminated provocative information that Russian Transport Minister Nikolai Aksenenko has resigned.

In this regard, the Center for Public Relations "Trans-Media" of the Ministry of Railways of the Russian Federation declares: the Minister of Railways of Russia Nikolai Aksenenko has not resigned and does not intend to resign. Minister of Railways N. Aksenenko was indeed invited to the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation as a witness and answered questions related to the economic activities of the ministry.

Unfortunately, until now some departments that show constant interest in this topic either do not know or have forgotten that the Ministry of Railways of the Russian Federation is the only ministry that combines state and economic functions. This is written down in the Regulations on the Ministry of Railways of Russia, approved by the Government of the Russian Federation back in 1996. The ongoing reform of the Russian Ministry of Railways, in particular, is aimed at eliminating this dual function and preserving the Russian railways as a single system under state control.

Apparently, someone really doesn’t want the reform of the Ministry of Railways, supported by the President of Russia and already approved by the government of the Russian Federation, to be implemented.”

Additional Information

Hobbies: loves listening to classical music, especially opera. Favorite writers and philosophers: Berdyaev, Rozanov, Bunin, Tolstoy, Turgenev.

I do not smoke. He has a negative attitude towards alcohol: “every time I saw a person lose his mind after drinking, I was disgusted. In my opinion, a drunk person is an offensive challenge to others. And besides, how can one work at full strength while indulging in such weaknesses and allowing them to happen to oneself?”

Criminal case

On October 19, 2001, Aksyonenko was summoned to the Prosecutor General's Office, where he was charged with abuse of power and misuse of profits from railway enterprises.

Aksyonenko’s case is based on an audit by the Accounts Chamber, the results of which were made public in June 2001. According to auditors, the management of the Ministry of Railways diverted money from the ministry’s investment program in order to buy apartments for themselves at $400-800 thousand. Also, according to the Accounts Chamber, a considerable part of the industry’s balance sheet profits ended up in the accounts of numerous trust funds; Some of the violations were related to the activities of railway state unitary enterprises.

On October 23, the Prosecutor General's Office changed paragraph 2 to paragraph 3 of Article 286 in its indictment, and the new charge also contained paragraph 3 of Article 160 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Two days later, Aksyonenko took leave until December 7.

On October 31, representatives of the Prosecutor General’s Office reported that as a result of Aksyonenko’s illegal actions, the state suffered damage of more than 11 billion rubles.

On January 3, 2002, Prime Minister Mikhail Kasyanov, during a meeting with President Putin, made a proposal to relieve Aksyonenko from the post of Minister of Railways. On the same day, the president signed a corresponding decree, and Aksyonenko, in turn, himself submitted a letter of resignation from the post of minister, motivating his actions by the fact that his resignation would create more favorable conditions for the operation of the industry. He also stated that he was morally responsible for the problems that arose in the area under his jurisdiction.

On October 6, 2003, Aksyonenko’s lawyer Galina Krylova petitioned the Prosecutor General’s Office to grant her client permission to temporarily leave Russia to undergo examination and treatment in one of the foreign clinics (Aksyonenko suffered from blood leukemia). Three days later, his recognizance order was removed and he was allowed to travel abroad, but “in exchange” he signed a protocol of refusal to further familiarize himself with the case.

On October 13, 2003, the Prosecutor General's Office transferred the case against Aksyonenko to court. However, no legal proceedings were actually carried out.

April 15, 2005 Presidium Supreme Court ordered the Presidium of the Moscow City Court to “initiate supervisory proceedings.” But this decision was not made.

Death

Nikolai Aksyonenko died on July 20, 2005 at the Gross Hadern Clinic in Munich from leukemia. He was buried in St. Petersburg at the Nikolskoye cemetery of the Alexander Nevsky Lavra.

Perpetuation of memory
