MOSCOW, June 1 Press Secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov promised to clarify information about a possible departure Valentina Yumashev from the post of adviser to the head of state on a voluntary basis. «I need to clarify this. Since it is on a voluntary basis … You yourself understand that this is a special status,» Peskov said, answering a question from journalists whether he could confirm the information about Yumashev's departure. Peskov also said that he did not remember the last time Yumashev spoke with Putin or appeared in the Kremlin. Earlier, the deputy executive director of the Yeltsin Center, Lyudmila Telen, said that Yumashev left the post of Putin's adviser back in April.
