	BBC NEWS \| World \| Europe \| Kiriyenko - the young reformer
		Sergei Kiriyenko laughs during a parliament session before debate which sealed his position as PM Sergei Kiriyenko was confirmed as Russia's new prime minister in April.
		Thus Mr Kiriyenko is closely associated with the so-called group of "Young Reformers" in the government, headed by Mr Nemtsov and his then fellow Deputy Premier Anatoli Chubais.
		Sergei Kiriyenko's main advantage is that he has made fewer enemies than Mr Chubais and Mr Nemtsov, and so is able more credibly to appeal for the opposition's co-operation in tackling Russia's severe economic and social problems.

		Sergei Kiriyenko was born in 1962 in Sukhum, the capital of Abkhazia, and grew up in Sochi, in southern Russia.
		Kiriyenko was an active member of the Union of Rightist Forces, which was co-chaired by Nemtsov.
		Kiriyenko (left) and his government were fired by then President Boris Yeltsin after the 1998 ruble crisis (TASS)Putin, likely satisfied with Kiriyenko's performance in the potentially troublesome region, then appointed him as the head of the national nuclear agency, Rosatom.

	Yeltsin delivers new jolt by firing prime minister
		Kiriyenko, whom Yeltsin ousted Sunday without explanation after only five months in office, was considered one of the most reform-minded prime ministers in years.
		Kiriyenko also announced a 90-day moratorium on payments by businesses of their overseas debt, and a restructuring of the government's billions of dollars in short-term bonds.
		Friday, Kiriyenko told the Duma that the brunt of the financial crisis was still to come and the government did not have the luxury of popularity.

		Environmentalists hailed the news with a lukewarm response, and urged Kiriyenko to develop a genuine dialogue with the environmental community—a dialogue that was erratic during the tenure of Rumyantsev and non-existent while his predecessor Yevgeny Adamov was in power.
		Kiriyenko’s governance of the state commission on chemical weapons can led one to assume that ecological problems are a priority for him.
		Afterward, Kiriyenko served as governor of the Nizhny-Novogorod region until he was appointed by Russian President Vladimir Putin in 2001 to serve as presidential envoy to the Volga Federal District.

	Harvard University Gazette
		Former Russian Prime Minister Sergei Kiriyenko spoke at Harvard on Monday, Dec. 7, arguing that there is still hope for economic reform in his country, but that first there must be a change in consciousness.
		Kiriyenko blamed populist leaders who have given people the idea that reform would be "painless and quick." As a result, the population is now tired and disappointed and suffering from a lack of consensus.
		Kiriyenko's recommendations include a program of realistic public education, reorganization of Russia's crippling debt, and the entry of the country's healthiest industries into the world market, which, he said, would provide an incentive for economic reform.

	CNN - Yeltsin nominee rejected on first try - April 10, 1998
		MOSCOW (CNN) -- In a defeat for Russian President Boris Yeltsin, parliament on Friday rejected Sergei Kiriyenko, complaining that the nominee for prime minister was too young and inexperienced to solve Russia's enormous problems.
		But following Kiriyenko's speech, the Liberal Democratic Party of ultranationalist Vladimir Zhirinovsky -- the only faction in the Duma that had pledged to vote for Kiriyenko -- announced it was withdrawing support because he had not said whether its members were being considered for the Cabinet.
		Kiriyenko, 35, has spent only about a year in government, most of it as a junior member although he was energy minister for four months under former Prime Minister Viktor Chernomyrdin.

	East European Constitutional Review
		Kiriyenko sharply reduced the number of deputy prime ministers from nine to three, thereby eliminating the distinction of “first deputy prime minister.” The three new deputy prime ministers—holdovers Boris Nemtsov and Oleg Sysuev and newcomer Viktor Khrystenko—are all associated with the “young reformers” camp.
		Along with Kiriyenko, the new cabinet leaders are considered free of strong ties to the financial or industrial lobbies occupying prominent positions in the Russian political landscape.
		As Kiriyenko himself told the Moscow daily Nezavisimaya Gazeta, “I don’t owe anything to anybody, except to the president.” The new momentum for economic reform—and consequent weakening of the financial and industrial lobbies—became evident on April 30 when Anatoly Chubais was named chief executive of United Energy Systems (UES), Russia’s electricity monopoly.

		Sergei Kiriyenko's observations are among the most balanced and defensible that have been made on the crisis Russia is undergoing, a topic that has elicited far more heat and obfuscation than enlightenment based on calm and dispassionate analysis.
		The "four problems" Kiriyenko cites (political instability that hampers tax collection, lack of a balanced budget, overemphasis on macroeconomic balance, and inherent limits on the government's ability to raise revenue), while real, are incomplete and stated with less precision than is desirable.
		I believe that Kiriyenko should have given more attention than he did to crime and corruption and to feasible means for addressing these scourges.

		Kiriyenko, a little know former oil executive, who came to Moscow from Nizhny Novgorod as a protégé of Boris Nemtsov in March 1997, was initially dismissed as a transitional figure, because of his youth and short cabinet tenure.
		Yeltsin's economic advisor, Aleksandr Livshits, who is seen as close to Berezovsky, said Kiriyenko is at the moment the "strongest candidate" for prime minister, and added that the President is likely to propose Kiriyenko's candidacy to the Duma, which must confirm the appointment of the prime minister.

		Yeltsin gave members of the Duma a cynically cruel choice They could either support his nomination of the unqualified Kiriyenko and hang on to the small change that is their take of the new spoils system, or they would face the risk of elections according to the president's rules.
