  1. For >3 years, #Putin has leaned on #Kiriyenko, 63, to manage the political aspects of the #Ukraine #war. Cracking down on domestic #opposition. Expanding the Kremlin’s control of the #internet. Pushing Putin’s narrative into Russian #schools & #culture. Shaping #propaganda & governance in occupied Ukraine. Attempting to legitimize #Russia’s #LandGrab.

  2. Despite his modest title of first deputy chief of staff to #Putin, #Kiriyenko represents an underappreciated aspect of how the Russian president exercises #power, forming part of a cadre of skilled, loyal & opportunistic managers who direct the sprawling apparatus of the Russian state.

  3. #Kiriyenko is the man who turns President Vladimir V. #Putin’s ideas into action.

    As the Russian leader wages war, Kiriyenko oversees wide-ranging government efforts to tighten Putin’s grip on #Russia & on occupied #Ukraine. He has also recently gained new #power inside the Kremlin, taking over much of the portfolio of another #Putin aide who disagreed with the invasion of Ukraine.

  4. Insightful @meduzaproject reporting on the state of #ldpr under #slutsky, who is not a character for inner-party integration. Yet, #kiriyenko and the pres admin are now actively supporting the party to displace #kprf, as the latter is harder to control. storage.googleapis.com/gsc-lin

  5. An insightful glimpse into the workings and strategies of the #kremlin when it comes to societal niches and how to engage them. Enter the "new people" party that proudly welcomed their curator #kiriyenko at their convention.

    The WSJ reported #ElonMusk, US-based #oligarch with extensive influence on US politics, had been in regular contact with #Putin since late 2022.

    The revelation came weeks after reports that similar calls were potentially made by former U.S. President Donald #Trump, the current Republican Party nominee who is heavily backed by #Musk.

  8. Last month, the #DOJ said in an affidavit that #Kiriyenko had created some 30 internet domains to spread Russian #disinformation, including on #Musk’s #X, where it was meant to erode support for #Ukraine & manipulate American voters ahead of the presidential #election.

    …One current & one fmr #intelligence source said that Musk & Putin have continued to have contact…into this year as Musk began stepping up his criticism of the #US military aid to #Ukraine & became involved in #Trump’s campaign.
