President Dmitry Medvedev?s appointment of Sergei Sobyanin as mayor of Moscow on Friday is one of the final plays in the ouster of Yuri Luzhkov, orchestrated by a Kremlin seeking to get its man into City Hall ahead of two key elections starting late next year. All has gone according to plan, say analysts, although the Moscow City Duma still needs to give its blessing to Premier Vladimir Putin?s former chief of staff Sobyanin. Meanwhile, the City Hall reshuffle has invited speculation that demonstrations in the Russian capital will be handled more calmly and could even be given the official go-ahead. Still, activists aren?t enthused with his appointment.
