"The salary is the same as that of the former governor, you see, I use all the same," RIA Novosti quoted Degtyarev.

According to him, this applies to both the office and the cars.

“Even the guard walks with me, who is in all the photos with Sergei Ivanovich Furgal,” Degtyarev said.

He noted that he has no plans to raise his salary.

"I do not plan. It seems to me that this is not ethical, ”said the acting governor.

Earlier, Acting Governor of the Khabarovsk Territory Mikhail Degtyarev said that he plans to tighten control over the expenditure of transfers from the federal treasury.
