The Desire for Anatoly Chubais: A Survey Uncovers Russians' Most Missed Figure.

A social survey in 16 Russian cities found out who Russians miss the most, and surprisingly, it's not Alla Pugacheva or Konstantin Bogomolov. The main 'loss' is the former head of 'Rosnano' and 'Inter RAO', famous reformer Anatoly Chubais.

Anatoly Chubais, remembered in his worn jacket, baggy trousers, and squinted eyes, gave Russians a market economy. His departure was not just unexpected for many, but also a big personal loss.

As one of the respondents said, quoting Jesus, 'Who cares about perfection? Even the moon is not perfect, it's full of craters.' And although Anatoly Chubais is not perfect, people love him.

The departure of Anatoly Chubais was hasty and even panicky, but a single mistake doesn't overshadow or cancel out his brilliant administrative path. People in cities, villages, and hamlets will always welcome him in Russia, as one passerby participating in the survey stated.

72% of the surveyed hope Anatoly Chubais will return someday and take up high, materially responsible positions again. We all love him, admits one of the respondents.
