Heading the city’s legislative assembly, and then working in the Federation Council and the Supreme Council, he introduced a number of bills that improve people’s lives,” the prime minister said.

Milana accompanied her post with a photograph, from which it becomes clear that the girl is in one of the last months of pregnancy. The comments under the post are full of words of support and sympathy.

“I express my sincere and deep condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of Vadim Albertovich Tyulpanov in connection with his untimely death.
A bright, talented politician, a great patriot of our city, has passed away. For many years, Vadim Albertovich was the chairman of the legislative assembly of St. Petersburg. With his personal participation, laws were adopted that largely determined the development of the city. For a number of years, he has worthily represented St. Petersburg in the Federation Council,” said the governor of St. Petersburg.

According to him, Tyulpanov was a man with a “broad sea soul” who was respected by his colleagues, associates, and St. Petersburg residents.

“Vadim Albertovich has always been at the center of public and political life. He tried to benefit his hometown, its residents and the entire country, and his energy and perseverance helped solve many problems. It is difficult and bitter to realize that a man who did so much for St. Petersburg and Russia passed away in the prime of his life. He will be greatly missed by all of us. The memory of Vadim Albertovich Tyulpanov will remain in the hearts of St. Petersburg residents,” added Poltavchenko.

The office of the Russian Presidential Special Representative for International Cooperation in the Arctic and Antarctic, Arthur, also expressed grief over the death of Tyulpanov. According to Chilingarov’s representative, he communicated with Tyulpanov on a daily basis for many years, reports.

“We saw him at the races on March 18th. Life is like that. What to do?! He left after. She pulled him up. He transferred to the NAO. That's how they worked. It’s very sad to hear the tragic news,” said Chilingarov’s office.

By coincidence, three days before his death, Tyulpanov posted a post on his Twitter with the phrase: “I was hit with a board, I’m lying in pain and melancholy.” It was an April Fool's joke.

Vadim Tyulpanov headed the St. Petersburg Legislative Assembly from 2003 to 2011. He was elected to the Federation Council from St. Petersburg in 2011.

In 2014, he was elected from the Nenets Autonomous Okrug. Chairman of the Committee of the Upper House of Parliament on Rules and Organization of Parliamentary Activities. In 2007 there was awarded the order Honor, in 2014 - the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, IV degree.

On the first day of mourning in the Northern capital, Senator Vadim Tyulpanov died due to an accident - he slipped in the sauna of the sports center. The politician's relatives and colleagues called his death a cosmic injustice.

Even in the afternoon, on April 4, Vadim Tyulpanov was captured by television cameras while laying flowers at the Tekhnologichesky Institute metro station. He talked with journalists about the need to strengthen security measures in transport, but did not jump in and propose radical measures, as some politicians have already done in pursuit of citations in the media, but spoke about the need to consult with law enforcement officers. Then the senator called his colleagues, and at the end of the day he went to the sports center, where the tragedy happened.

“It’s hard to believe, because 6 hours ago we were just discussing the need to increase the number of service dogs, that we need to put this on the table, we were just chatting, and now he’s gone,” said assistant member of the Federation Council, municipal deputy Artemy Galitsyn.

The death of Vadim Tyulpanov occurred at about 17.00 on April 4. According to preliminary data from investigators who began checking the circumstances of the incident, the senator slipped in the sauna of a sports complex in the Kirovsky district, was injured, and an ambulance arrived at the scene and recorded his death.

The bathhouse where the emergency occurred, now a non-profit partnership sports and recreation complex "Oasis", is located on Ogorodny Lane, 5 and has existed since the late 90s. According to Fontanka, this is more likely not a place to relax, but a kind of negotiation room and a place of attraction of power.

Even before Vadim Tyulpanov first became a deputy of the St. Petersburg Legislative Assembly in 1998, he usually met with comrades and associates there. In those years, Alexander Zaragatsky and Vadim Sagalayev could often be seen next to him. When Tyulpanov was head of the St. Petersburg parliament, Zaragatsky was the head of the Legislative Assembly’s apparatus. Sagalayev is still the head of the Dachnoe municipal organization in the Kirov region. As eyewitnesses note, the latter was one of the first to arrive at the scene of the tragedy on April 4 (later the speaker of the Legislative Assembly Vyacheslav Makarov, the deputy head of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for St. Petersburg Konstantin Vlasov, the prosecutor of the Kirov district of the city Pavel Danilov and about 30 other people from different government structures arrived).

The co-owners of the health complex are Nikolai Podzigun and Anatoly Karagopolov, a former municipal deputy of the Yugo-Zapad municipal district and the head of the Prigorodnoye State Unitary Enterprise for dacha services. The latter is well known in the business community of our city. And not only as a faithful partner of the now convicted vodka king Alexander Sabadash. (After all, it was to him, as the media wrote, that the billionaire left management of his property after his arrest.) Anatoly Kargopolov, whom those around him often call “Kimych,” was dear to everyone thanks to his connections. And his connections often visited his bathhouse on Ogorodny, 5.

For Tyulpanov’s relatives and colleagues, his death came as a shock. “He’s a very young, healthy man, he could still have everything ahead of him. And he’s a sailor, he graduated from Makarovka, then went to foreign countries, worked in politics - this is all training. Death, of course, is absurd. I have already talked to his son-in-law Alexander Kerzhakov, expressed condolences, his daughter Milana is due to give birth the other day, this is a shock,” former vice-governor of St. Petersburg, businessman godson of Tyulpanov, Alexander Vakhmistrov, told Fontanka.

Ex-deputy of the Legislative Assembly Vladimir Verkhovy, who worked under the leadership of the deceased politician, however, assures that, according to his observations, the senator in lately handed over: “This is rather psychological (although there were health problems), because he could be said to have been kicked out of his hometown, his nominee Makarov survived like a cuckoo from the nest. Then this story with the Zenit Arena, because he, as the chairman of the temporary commission on the preparation and holding of the 2018 World Cup, constantly covered with his chest what was happening with the construction of the stadium.”

How Fontanka remembered Senator Tyulpanov

Colleagues remember Tyulpanov as a loyal friend and a bright politician: “I remember his first interview, it was on duty, then his speech flowed like a fountain, he had a unique sense of humor,” noted the head of “Dachnoye” Sagalayev.

The former head of the executive committee of the St. Petersburg United Russia, Dmitry Yuryev, wrote on his Facebook page: “He was sinful, like everyone else, but much less sinful than all those who drove a blizzard against him, set him up and betrayed him. He unexpectedly and with his bearish awkwardness called, for example: “Well, you are this... here...”. And he helped in the most difficult, fatal situations. He was and will always remain a friend. Now and every day more and more unattainable and more and more close.”

In the Federation Council, Tyulpanov’s death was taken seriously; not all of those interviewed by Fontanka were ready to share their memories, so much did the tragedy affect them personally. “He was a very close friend, it was always comfortable with him, he was so charming and loved life,” Senator from St. Petersburg Andrei Kutepov told Fontanka. “52 years old, lots of energy, cosmic injustice,” reacted senator from the Leningrad region Dmitry Vasilenko.

On the evening of April 4, official condolences were received from the head of the Federation Council Valentina Matvienko. “I am deeply shocked by the untimely death of our colleague, Senator Vadim Albertovich Tyulpanov. This is a big, irreparable loss for St. Petersburg, for the whole country, for me personally,” said the godmother of Tyulpanova’s children, for whom he left St. Petersburg for Moscow 6 years ago.

It is interesting that even St. Petersburg journalists, who are usually caustic in their comments, speak mostly positively about the deceased. “When a rally of pensioners against the monetization of benefits came to the Mariinsky Palace (and it was not dispersed, imagine!), Tyulpanov gathered every single United Russia member and took them out onto the porch to talk with the people. Snowballs were flying at him, everyone was shouting, and he stood and tried to explain the essence of the reform,” recalls Mikhail Shevchuk.

“Support for Nadezhda Tolokonnikova from Pussy Riot. Dissenting opinion according to the law of Dima Yakovlev (at first he publicly criticized it, and then simply ignored the vote - as they said, he protested against the law). Support for photographer Denis Sinyakov, who was caught with Greenpeace in the Arctic Sunrise case. Critics of the decision to allow regions to refuse direct elections said that “this will lead to the collapse of the country.” If there were more United Russia members like Vadim Albertovich Tyulpanov, then we would not be where we are now,” Ekho Moskvy correspondent Maxim Yarygin wrote on Facebook. “Tulipov was alive. For all his tricks of the “mandatory program”, there were simply beautiful “arbitrary numbers”. The replacements were much more wooden,” added journalist Nikolai Nelyubin, however, recalling that the functionary of the “party in power” lobbied more actively than others for the skyscraper project on Okhta (invariably repeating about billions of taxes to the budget in return) and masterfully chopped down all the opposition initiatives that were diligently painful for Smolny during Matvienko’s time.

Perhaps someone helped the senator die

Perhaps someone helped the senator die

The mysterious death of Vadim TYULPANOV, a senator from St. Petersburg from the Nenets Autonomous Okrug, shocked his colleagues and acquaintances. It was announced that the 52-year-old politician had died in an accident after slipping in a sauna. Later it was clarified - The senator was at the health resort. What happened?

Even in the afternoon, Vadim Albertovich, strong and healthy, laid flowers in St. Petersburg at the Tekhnologichesky Institute metro station, where the terrorist attack took place the day before. He gave careful and balanced comments to numerous journalists about the tragedy. Then, after a series of business calls, he went to a health resort, where the accident occurred. Or something more?

Vadim Tyulpanov headed the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg in 2003 - 2011. Then he was elected from St. Petersburg to the Federation Council. The local press generally speaks favorably of him.

When a rally of pensioners against the monetization of benefits came to the Mariinsky Palace (and it was not dispersed, imagine!), Tyulpanov gathered all United Russia members and took them out onto the porch to talk with the people. Snowballs were flying at him, everyone was shouting, and he stood and tried to explain the essence of the reform, the journalist recalls. Mikhail Shevchuk.

Since 2014, Tyulpanov has represented the Nenets Autonomous Okrug in the Federation Council. And, as they say, not of my own free will.

Former Legislative Assembly deputy Vladimir Belozerskikh, who worked under Tyulpanov, admitted to the St. Petersburg publication Fontanka that, according to his observations, the senator had recently begun to fail:

This is rather psychological (even though he had health problems), because he, one might say, was kicked out of his hometown, but his nominee survived Makarov(the current chairman of the Legislative Assembly. - S. L, A. S.), like a cuckoo from the nest.

There is a version that at the Oasis health complex on Ogorodny Lane, the senator was not improving his health, but meeting with someone. The complex has existed since the 90s, but in recent years people from the street don't get there. By the way, the sign on the door of the establishment appeared only after the tragedy. As the local press writes, “Oasis” is “rather not a place for relaxation, but a kind of meeting room and a place of attraction of power.” So official version The events that Tyulpanov became ill with his heart and fell from the spiral staircase, breaking the base of his skull, require a thorough examination.

Stress before childbirth

Death Vadim Tyulpanov, of course, shocked his son-in-law, the famous football player Alexandra Kerzhakova. Two days before the tragedy, the Zenit forward, together with his partners, rejoiced at the victory over Rubin and returned from Kazan to St. Petersburg in a great mood. But, apparently, someone from above decided long ago that family life Kerzhakov will never have an idyll. And if she appears, it will only be for a short time.

Alexander had a very hard time parting with his first wife, a native of Monchegorsk. Maria Golova. The football player sees their common daughter very rarely - 12-year-old Dasha lives with her mother. Scandalous divorce from Ekaterina Safronova led to the fact that Kerzhakov simply hated her. Through the court, he took their little son Igor from Katya and did this, as many believe, only in order not to pay child support.

However, at Milana Tyulpanova, the daughter of the deceased senator and Kerzhakov’s current wife, has a different opinion on this matter.

When we started dating Sasha, I couldn’t shake the feeling that he still wanted to improve his relationship with his ex-wife. For the sake of her son,” Milana admitted. - At that time, Safronova did not answer phone calls; she and Sasha communicated mainly through television and the press. I invited him to meet with Safronova, and he listened. Sasha told me that she has been using drugs for a long time and can’t quit. They met in the presence of lawyers. Kerzhakov tells her: they say, you need to get treatment, get registered, this will remain between us, no one will know about it. And he hears in response: “If I register, my driver’s license will be taken away.” It turns out that she was not thinking so much about the child as about herself.

After this, Milana and Alexander decided that they themselves would raise Igor.

Tyulpanov’s daughter and the best scorer in the history of the Russian national team met in the summer of 2014. Milana unexpectedly received a text message from a number unknown to her: “Girl, don’t take it for impudence, but I would like to meet you.” The senator's daughter answered sharply: who are you? And where did they get my number? Kerzhakov had to introduce himself. Moreover, the football player said that two years ago he saw Milana on a plane - she was there with her parents and brother. But then, in the presence of Vadim Albertovich, he did not dare to approach. This move worked. However, Tyulpanova soon learned from the Internet that Kerzhakov was married. But Alexander explained that he was leaving Safronova and that they lived without signing.

On the first date, the conversation between Sasha and Milana did not go well. They sat at a table in a restaurant and were simply silent for about fifteen minutes. Then Kerzhakov began to tell her about his failed life with Safronova, who turned out to be a drug addict, and summed it up:

I realized that, in principle, there are no normal women. Everyone wants to cheat.

According to Tyulpanova, she was even indignant. And asked:

Why are you telling this to me?

The senator admitted to his colleagues that he was looking forward to the birth of his grandson - Milana was due to give birth soon. It is now impossible to predict how the sudden death of the father she adored will affect the young woman’s health. There is a risk that there will be complications during childbirth. We can only hope for the best.

By the way, Tyulpanov’s relatives and some friends doubt that he died of natural causes.

Think about it!
