He was appointed to the Urals in 2015, that’s what was written about him back then:
“Micheli doesn’t work so loudly. Read the Wikileaks secret files of the period when he worked in Moldova. He prefers to meet with prime ministers, deputies and oligarchs (however, in Moldova they are usually the same people). His method: meet quietly, coordinate all steps with the center, move slowly but consistently. To a certain extent, the ‘merit’ of the overthrow of the communists in 2009 belongs to him, so he has no experience in organising ‘Maidans’ (more precisely, their support from the political and economic elite). He himself does not run around the streets, he does not carry snipers – it’s not his profile. His profile is money. Meetings with the Prime Minister of Moldova, as if in between affairs, registration of IRI and NDI, open arms for the IMF, and reforms, reforms, reforms. Even a cursory knowledge of English is enough to understand the familiar movements of the US.
Well, the riots in Chisinau, dubbed the ‘Twitter Revolution’ – this is generally pure American handwriting. It is noteworthy that the riots started after the announcement of the results of the election, which was won by the communists with an overwhelming advantage. And a Maidan started with 2,000 people, who habitually, according to American guidelines, trampled on the choice of the majority.”
In 2017, when he left Ekaterinburg, Micheli said that he planned to travel around the world, “but he will not abandon the civil service” (photo # 2).
And he didn’t lie. He is now the US Ambassador to Lithuania:
It is precisely Marcus Micheli who today interacts with Tikhanovskaya through the CIA (including organising a meeting between Tikhanovskaya and Pompeo’s deputy).
So say hello from the Urals to Marcus.
