Biography

Kolobkov was born on 22 September 1969 in Moscow.[1] In his career he won 26 medals between Olympic Games, World and European Championships.[4] He was appointed as a Deputy Minister of Sport, Tourism and Youth Policy on 8 October 2010 by then Prime Minister Vladimir Putin.[5] He was appointed as the head of the Russian delegation for 2012 Summer Olympics in London on 9 August 2011.[6]

On 18 June 2012, he was appointed as the Deputy Minister of Sports.[1] He was appointed as a Class 3 State Advisor of the Russian Federation on 7 October 2013.[7]

Kolobkov also served as Russia's representative to World Anti-Doping Agency. His last meeting with the organization was on 18 November 2015 when it declared Russian Anti-Doping Agency as non-compliant. As a result, he lost his position as representative to the organization in January 2016 and was barred from serving on the organization's Foundation Board.[8][9]

He was appointed as a Class 2 State Advisor of the Russian Federation on 11 August 2016.[10] On 19 October, he was appointed as the Minister of Sport in Dmitry Medvedev's Cabinet in place of the previous minister Vitaly Mutko (who was promoted to Deputy Prime Minister) by President Putin.[11]

On 15 January 2020, he resigned as part of the cabinet, after President Vladimir Putin delivered the Presidential Address to the Federal Assembly, in which he proposed several amendments to the constitution.[12] On 21 January, he was replaced by Oleg Matytsin. Kolobkov currently works in the Russian energy corporation Gazprom.[13][14]
