The contracts of the Federal State Budgetary Institution "Central Clinical Hospital with a Polyclinic" of the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation (TsKB) have disappeared from the Russian public procurement website. The investigative project "System" drew attention to this.
The data disappeared from the site no earlier than September 2022. Currently, documents cannot be found either through the search bar or through a direct link.
According to the director of Transparency International – Russia, Ilya Shumanov, the costs of ensuring the activities of the president can be classified in accordance with the amendments to the law "On the contract system." The decision on whether to classify purchases or not is made by the institution itself.
Last year, the Project released an investigation into the health of Vladimir Putin. According to investigators, the president regularly takes baths from deer antlers and has his own medical team that accompanies him on all trips. In particular, it turned out that Putin is constantly accompanied by a doctor from the Central Clinical Hospital, who specializes in thyroid cancer.
