Already on May 18, 2002, the new president Vladimir Putin appointed Georgy Sergeevich to the authorized representative in the Central Federal District. It is believed that the position of Poltavchenko received thanks to the experience of working in the tax police.
Soon after appointment, a man had to deal with the scandal in the subordinate area.
