According to information known to the publication, Andrei Sharonov was imposed on the opinion with his colleagues on how to behave with business structures. Andrei Sharonov had ideas, in particular, the opinion on the need to make contact with entrepreneurs and take into account their requirements, while his opponents saw more reasonable only to inform businessmen about prepared decrees and orders.
