Okulov, 44, husband of Yeltsin’s eldest daughter Yelena, was previously first deputy to the outgoing chief of Aeroflot, and was in charge of the carrier’s Operations Manage-ment and Organization department. Okulov will remain acting director until Aeroflot’s board of directors appoints a new head at the next board meeting.
