 * Keep While I'd have gone delete, the multiple mentions of him with regard to sanctions, I suspect, make him a geopolitical figure and get him past WP:GNG - "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability" Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 10:17, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
 * perhaps. a profound review of each source is needed in that case. but, I still think he's not so big a geopolitical figure. Maybe, he could be merged with his father. His father is indeed a geopolitical figure. Bash7oven (talk) 11:32, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Comment still no reliable sources there. His father is a famous figure, so it would be wise to merge into his father's page: Mikhail Fradkov --Bash7oven (talk) 12:11, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep - many reliable sources are in Russian, as you'd expect, such as: TASS ), RIA Novosti, Kommersant , , Rossiskaya Gazeta , Interfax , Krasnaya Zvezda , , Vedomosti , etc. His work and activities are noted on the presidential website Kremlin.ru . General Director of the 10th largest Russian bank Promsvyazbank, detailed in organisations like the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, , , the Free Russia Forum , and covered also in English-language sources like Bloomberg News , Sky News , Reuters , The Guardian , BBC News , and detailed by the US Treasury , the UK Government , the European Union . Fradkov and his work is also covered in scholarly texts such as Alena V. Ledeneva's Can Russia Modernise? Sistema, Power Networks and Informal Governance, Anders Åslund's Russia's Crony Capitalism: The Path from Market Economy to Kleptocracy, the Strategic Studies Institute's The Rise of Russia - The Turning Point for Russian Foreign Policy, Keir Giles's Russian Interests in Sub-Saharan Africa, Richard Sakwa's The Putin Paradox, among quite a few others. The question is not whether a user thinks "he's not so big a geopolitical figure" but whether he passes WP:GNG, which he seems to do amply. Spokoyni (talk) 13:25, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
