Info | (born April 9, 1938) is a Russian politician.
Chernomyrdin was the Prime Minister of Russia from 1992 to 1998. Since 2001, he has been Russia's ambassador to Ukraine. He is also a Russian business oligarch. Le Monde once estimated Chernomyrdin has assets of $5 billion; but Chernomyrdin stated in 1996 his assets totaled $46000.
Viktor Chernomyrdin is a target of numerous jokes for his notoriously grammatically incorrect speech. One of his expressions "We meant to do better, but it came out as always" became a popular proverb. This was said by him after an highly unsuccessful monetary exchange performed by the Russian Central Bank in July 1993.
