According to Andrei Zharkov on a number of strategic issues at variance with the views of the officials holding the majority of seats on the Supervisory Board of ALROSA, Bloomberg writes. One of the sources of "Kommersant" says that the differences arose on the sale of Federal Property Management Agency controlling stake in OJSC "Diamond World" (until recently, the only one in the RF range of custom diamond processing), where ALROSA more than 47%, as well as the approval of the company's budget for 2017 year: Ministry of Finance insisted on its reduction, but Mr. Zharkov was against it. Other interlocutors "Kommersant" said that the head of the Alrosa had a difficult relationship with the officials, except for the company in charge of Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Trutnev, who put forward Andrei Zharkov to the post in 2015. Deputy Prime Minister insisted on the development of cutting and polishing business ALROSA, which is opposed by the former head of Fyodor Andreev (died in January 2015). Andrey Zharkov, together with the customs broker TBSS opened in 2016 Eurasian Diamond Center in Vladivostok, was unhappy than Yakutia (there is expected that the project will be implemented in the country), says one of the "Kommersant" interviewees.
