Почему в списке | Участие и пособничество в деятельности организованного преступного сообщества, созданного с целью систематического совершения особо опасных преступлений, направленных против основ конституционного строя и безопасности государства, государственной власти и интересов государственной службы, правосудия, а также против мира и безопасности. | В 2014 году Валентина Матвиенко подпала под санкции США, Канады и ЕС в связи с одобрением возглавляемым ею Советом Федерации введения российских вооруженных сил на территорию Украины. | На основании данных СМИ подозревается в том, что, будучи губернатором Санкт-Петербурга, использовала свое служебное положение для принятия неправомерных решений в пользу своей семьи и ее окружения. По информации Russiangate, за время работы на посту Валентина Матвиенко подписала по меньшей мере девять постановлений о передаче в аренду городской собственности частным компаниям под строительство. При этом основным частным застройщиком оказались структуры, аффилированные с сыном Матвиенко — Сергеем. Общая стоимость предоставленных ему объектов составила 8,4 млрд рублей. Таким образом, занимая государственный пост, Валентина Матвиенко, предположительно, могла способствовать незаконному обогащению ее родственника за счет средств городского бюджета.
