Chemezov was against such a step and retained the asset for Rostec.

There is probably no end to the level of indignation for every resident of Russia. How is it possible that Vasilyeva not only is not in prison, but is also living happily now? No, of course, she was imprisoned first, for only a month out of 5 years. The court sentenced her to 5 years in prison.
Speaking about what to call this, there is only one conclusion. Not a single official of the Russian Federation obeys our laws. They live in their own world of lawlessness, impunity and corruption.
That huge scandal are still remembered not only in our country, but throughout the world. Many journalists rightfully consider him the most corrupt in history. What do you call it when the main accused is released after a month, and her accomplice simply resigns?
So why was Vasilyeva accused? The thing is that her official salary was at the level of the average Moscow manager, only 150 thousand rubles, and according to the criminal case, almost half a billion worth of property was seized from her! How is this possible, you ask?
Naturally, such a picture began to interest everyone. Journalists quickly found out that Vasilyeva is none other than the mistress of Anatoly Serdyukov, the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation.
How is Evgenia Vasilyeva doing now?
As they say, and in the most literal sense, the life of a worker and part-time mistress of the former Minister of Defense shines with all its colors. Later a short time After serving her sentence, having taken a break, so to speak, Vasilyeva became a businesswoman. More precisely, she went into the jewelry business, and I must say quite successfully.
Today she has several of her own companies, and she is actively involved in the production of diamonds.
How is Serdyukov doing?
Anatoly Eduardovich did not long grieve for his familiar place in the Ministry of Defense. After the scandalous dismissal, Serdyukov got a job at FIITs M. This office was part of Russian Technologies.
Already in October 2015, the former minister went even further and took a post at Rostec as industrial director.
A few months later, Serdyukov became a member of the directors of the Russian Helicopters Corporation, but this was not enough for him. At the beginning of 2016 he found himself chairman of the HOA"Milk-6". By the way, this is a completely different story, filled with new scandals.
It would seem that what else is needed for complete happiness? But no! Already in July 2017, Anatoly Serdyukov became none other than the chairman of the directors of the aircraft manufacturing company PJSC Rostvertol.
