Pavel Durov resigned as Director General FaceBook Bashny.Net

As a result of events subsequent to the change in the share of VKontakte in April 2013, the freedom of action of the General Director in managing the company significantly reduced. Becoming increasingly difficult to defend the principles that were once laid the foundation of our social network.

Following my brother, who in the middle of last year left the post of technical director, I release myself from acting CEO VKontakte.

Thanks to all users who have supported and inspired me these 7 years. I will continue to participate in the life of the founder of VKontakte rights, but the formal positions in the new conditions did not interest me.

In contact with you,
Pavel Durov
