early years
Зимин Виктор Михайлович был рожден в августе 1962 year in the remote village of Dissos, on the territory of the Krasnoturansky district in the Krasnoyarsk Territory. His father, Mikhail Mikhailovich Zimin, was an ethnic Russian, but his mother Marta Karlovna was a German, along with her parents in the Stalin era, driven from the Volga region to Siberia during a mass deportation.
Later, the family moved to Khakassia, including Viktor Zimin. Khakassia became his native land for him. It was there, in the village of Katanovo, that in the Askiz district, he graduated from school.
After receiving eight years of schoolingVitya entered the agricultural technical school, located in the city of Abakan, which he successfully graduated in 1982. The next two years, he devoted an urgent service to the tank troops, rising to the rank of sergeant.
Professional career
After the army, Zimin Victor Mikhailovichto work as an installer for a construction company. Then he moves to the position of a master in the organization Dorstroy, which was engaged in the construction and repair of the Krasnoyarsk railway, as well as various facilities along it, including social (schools, boiler houses, kindergartens, etc.). Then he gets a promotion to the foreman, and then - the head of the site.
Since 1985, Zimin Victor Mikhailovich is appointedchief engineer, and then the head of the construction and installation department. Under his leadership, a railway station was built in the city of Bogotol, located in the Krasnoyarsk Territory. In 1991 Zimin became the curator for the construction of the Achinsk branch of the railway. In 1992 he was appointed Deputy Chief of the Abakan branch of the Krasnoyarsk Railway. In this position he began to supervise the objects under construction.
All the 90s and early 2000s he worked forof this post is virtually unchanged. These were difficult times for the country as a whole and for the enterprise in particular, but Viktor Mikhailovich clearly performed his duties. For his services in the labor field in 2001, he was marked with the sign of an honorary railwayman.
At the same time, he also developed his own small business in the form of a horse farm and a hunting farm.
The beginning of political career
In 1999, Viktor Zimin joined the ranksthe founders of the Unity party in Khakassia, which aimed to rally the Russian people around Vladimir Putin, who was running for his first presidential term at that time. In 2001, this movement was transformed into the party "United Russia".
It is on the lists of "United Russia" in 2004Zimin was elected to the Supreme Council of Khakassia. In the elections, the party won more than 23% of the vote, which meant that 11 deputies passed to parliament, among them Viktor Zimin.
In the State Duma
In the 2007 elections, Viktor Zimin alsoran from United Russia, but this time to the State Duma. It passes to the parliament, but now of federal significance. The party in Khakassia gathers almost 60% of the votes, which guarantees that Zimin gets to the Duma on her lists.
In the State Duma Viktor Zimin quite expectedly joined the "United Russia" faction. He also joined the committee on agrarian affairs.
In 2007, Viktor Mikhailovich received a higher education, graduating from the Tomsk Architectural University with a degree in Automotive.
In 2008, Zimin led the party "United Russia" in Khakassia, becoming the secretary of its political council.
Appointment by the Governor
In 2008, Dmitry Medvedev made Ziminproposal to occupy the governor's seat in Khakassia. At the president's suggestion, he was elected to this post by local deputies in December 2008 (66 deputies for and 3 abstentions), but he did not intervene until January 15, 2009, replacing Alexei Lebed, who held the post.
From that time to the present, Zimin Viktor Mikhailovich is the head of the republic.
In the governor's chair
Now the main duty of Viktor Zimin was to lead the native region.
One of his first decisions was the refusal to unite Khakassia with Krasnoyarsk Krai, which was previously supposed to be committed. This caused discontent among some groups of the population.
In 2009, when the Sayano-Shushenskaya hydropower plantan emergency situation occurred, many residents of nearby villages were going to resettle. But Viktor Zimin urged not to make hasty actions. As it turned out later, his advice was correct.
At the end of 2009, he was appointed by Medvedev as one of the members of the Presidium of the State Council of the Russian Federation.
Autumn of 2010 in Khakassia occurredconstitutional reform, according to which the post of the head of the republic was now called "Head of the Republic of Khakassia - Chairman of the Government of the Republic of Khakassia". As the head of this subject of the federation Zimin automatically entered this position. It assumed a wider range of powers than it was before. There have also been changes at a lower level in the management of municipalities.
In December 2011, regular elections took place.in the State Duma. He ran for them according to the lists of the electoral bloc "United Russia" and Zimin Viktor Mikhailovich, head of the Republic of Khakassia. The biography of this figure, however, has not changed significantly, since even in the event of victory, he was not going to leave the governor’s chair. Nobody doubted the victory, since Zimin spoke under the first number of the regional list in Khakassia of the most popular Russian party - United Russia. The question was only with what percentage of the votes would this particular party win. As a result of the vote, United Russia gained more than 40% of the vote. As expected, after the victory Zimin refused from the deputy mandate, and his place was taken by the second in the list of the party Nadezhda Maximova.
In early 2013, Viktor Zimin was supposed tofold his powers, as the term of his governorship expired. But the Russian president appointed him. and. about. head of the Republic of Khakassia until the next election of the governor, which were due in the fall of the same year. As expected, in the September elections Zimin convincingly won in the first round, gaining more than 63% of the vote. For comparison: Viktor Sobolev, who came second, representing the LDPR party, failed to overcome even the 10% barrier.
In September 2016, when gubernatorial elections were held in many regions of Russia, they were not held in Khakassia, since Zimin’s five-year term has not yet passed.
Criticism
Despite the great experience of Viktor Zimin aspolicy and the administrator, in his address also receives a lot of criticism. In particular, those who are dissatisfied with him are imputed to involvement in corrupt schemes or indulging corruption among subordinates. In this regard, there was even talk that on the eve of the 2016 parliamentary elections, Zimin could be on the list of disgraced governors and say goodbye to the chair of the head of the republic. This was also due to the fact that the budget of Khakassia for 2016 was adopted with great difficulty, besides with a significant deficit, and the region’s debts exceeded the amount of 15 billion rubles.
Nevertheless, this did not happen, and afterparliamentary elections, Viktor Zimin remains the head of the region. Some experts believe that this happened only thanks to the support and intercession of his friend, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu.
Awards
After we talked about the bad, it's time to move on to the good, namely, to the list of awards that Victor Zimin honored.
Как мы уже говорили ранее, в 2001 году он получил title of honorary railwayman. The rewards that followed were even more significant. So, in 2011, Zimin was awarded the Order of Daniel of Moscow. Then he was awarded the Order of Merit for the Fatherland of the second degree.
In 2013, Zimina was waiting for a series of awards. He was awarded the honorary sign of the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, the fourth degree.
2015 was no less generous for awards. Then Zimin received the title of Honored Builder of Khakassia, as well as a medal for labor prowess.
The most recent award of Viktor Zimin is an honorary badge received from the Union of Journalists, which he won in June 2016
As you can see, the list of awards of the head of Khakassia is quite wide and inspires respect for this person.
A family
The head of the republic has a large family.Zimin's wife, Viktor Mikhailovich, Tatiana, is a teacher. But at the same time, she is one of the co-founders of Prommetall. In the marriage of Victor and Tatiana Zimin three daughters were born.

General characteristics of Viktor Zimin
As you can see, Victor Zimin in the economicactivities and politics are not new. Of course, not everything works out for him as he would like. Nevertheless, there is hardly a person in Khakassia who would know so well all the economic nuances of the region in order to manage or at least effectively manage them as Zimin Viktor Mikhailovich does.
