Alexander Frolov


A 41 year-old atomic physicist, Frolov is deputy CEO of Evraz and responsible for all of the company’s operations. Frolov owns the second biggest stake in the company, claiming 31.11%. However, it is also reported that billionaire Roman Abramovich and his partners own 41.3% and that co-founders Alexander Abramov and Frolov own 41.3% together, with Abramov owning two times as many as Frolov. He was part of the original group of investors in the company that also includes Maxim Boiko, a St. Petersburg crony of Russia's privatization chief Anatoly Chubais who was reported to hold 1/3 of the shares as of 2001. Another of the original investors was Iskander Makhmudov who was a partner at least through 2001. It is assumed that Boiko’s and Makhmudov’s shares in the company were transferred to Abramov and Frolov respectively; however, there does not appear to be any direct evidence. In any case, Frolov himself is now worth $2.3 billion and was largely unknown until Evraz went public. It is interesting to note that Frolov recently turned down $2.5 million in salary and bonuses, calling it “unethical.” He is not to be confused with the LA Kings hockey star of the same name.

Boris Gryzlov



Internal Affairs Minister Boris Gryzlov plays a unique role in Russian politics. He is one of the few Russian politicians to head an important federal-level ministry as well as represent, even if indirectly, a powerful State Duma faction.
Gryzlov is Russia's top cop, though he was appointed internal affairs minister without any experience in law enforcement or work within the security agencies. (His background includes engineering, trade-union activities and running a trade company.) Unlike the rest of the government, his appointment to a federal ministry was the result of his political activities, which made Unity (now part of the bloc of Kremlin-controlled parties' United Russia) the most powerful political entity in the Duma. He is credited with being a very efficient and energetic organizer as well as a loyal (to a fault) executor of Putin's Duma agenda to strengthen the Kremlin's vertical power structures. Gryzlov is perceived as being able to "organize a victory," as the Bolsheviks used to put it, and organizing one in the Duma was just the beginning.
Gryzlov's appointment in March 2001 to head the Internal Affairs Ministry surprised most of the political establishment. That he was an Internal Affairs Ministry outsider and political appointee surely meant he had been given a mandate to completely reorient this part of Russia’s security apparatus away from the 'family loyalist' Vladimir Rushailo toward officials more acquiescent to Putin and his subordinates. It did not take long for Gryzlov to replace Rushailo's proteges, while Rushailo himself was "promoted" to head the very nebulous Security Council - a place where powerful, though politically out of favor, figures often seem to wind up. Now that he has succeeded in subordinating the ministry to Putin and his people, many are curious about what the Kremlin will direct him to do next.
Biography and history with Unified Russia party:
Born in 1950, Interior Minister Boris Gryzlov moved to Leningrad with his parents when he was 4 years old. His father was in the military, and his mother was a teacher. Young Gryzlov was a model student and Young Pioneer, according to "Profile" on 14 February 2000.
In 1968, he entered the Leningrad Electronic Institute, where he specialized in radio engineering. There, Gryzlov was also an accomplished student and a "most active" member of the Komsomol. Gryzlov remained in Leningrad, and in 1985 while working for a trade union, he became acquainted with "most useful people" in the raion administration and played soccer on the raion administration's team. It was there he met Nikolai Patrushev, the current director of the Federal Security Service (FSB). At that time, Patrushev was a deputy in the raion council.
In 1998, Gryzlov became actively engaged in politics, waging an unsuccessful campaign for the St. Petersburg Legislative Assembly. In August-September 1999, he headed the campaign headquarters for Viktor Zybkov, a candidate for governor of Leningrad Oblast. Zybkov got only 10 percent of the vote, but his campaign was considered very successful in terms of organization, according to "Nezavisimaya gazeta."
Vladislav Reznik, a well-known St. Petersburg businessman acquainted with Gryzlov, told "Itogi": Gryzlov "is a brilliant organizer and splendidly led the campaign for Unity in St. Petersburg. He is a systematic and consistent person." Zybkov's headquarters was supposed to have been headed by Dmitrii Kozak, but Kozak was summoned at the last minute to work in Moscow, according to "Profil." Kozak, who is now deputy head of the presidential administration, recommended that Gryzlov take his place.
In October 1999, during the run-up to the December 1999 State Duma elections, Gryzlov ran Unity's St. Petersburg headquarters and topped the movement's regional list. The movement polled around 17 percent in the city, and Gryzlov won a deputy's mandate. Kozak again played an important role in Gryzlov's career, recommending him for the job that would catapult him into the national spotlight, -- head of the Unity faction in the Duma, according to "Profil." The Kremlin tapped Gryzlov, who was completely unknown at that time on the national level, to head the Duma's second-largest faction.
In his role as Unity head, Gryzlov developed a reputation for being both loyal and ambitious. The Unity faction has, on most issues, voted unanimously and according to the Kremlin's wishes. As a rule, only its top officials speak publicly. A number of Moscow newspapers suggested that it was Gryzlov's loyalty that prompted President Vladimir Putin to tap Gryzlov for the post of interior minister in March 2001.
In November 2002, Gryzlov was named the chairman of the Higher Council of the successor party to Unity, the Unified Russia party. A struggle for power among competing clans within the party had been on going in the party for some months, and most observers believed Putin tapped Gryzlov to introduce a firmer hand within the party's top ranks although they were uncertain whether Gryzlov had the political stature to do the job.
