Undoing Luzhkov

President Dmitry Medvedev may have succeeded in chucking out Moscow Mayor Yuri Luzhkov, but he’s apparently not done with him yet.

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev identified the fight against corruption and crime a priority of the Moscow city government’s agenda and urged it to scrap decrees adopted illegally under former mayor Yuri Luzhkov.

“All administrative decisions that create conditions for corruption must be eradicated along with personal decrees that have been adopted in violation of the law,” Medvedev said at a meeting with Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin.

What does this mean exactly?  The Kremlin intends to go after a wide variety of real estate assets passed to Yelena Baturina’s ZAO Inteco.  Reversing and re-distributing all this wealth will cause quite a shake up.
