Moscow  - Former Russian prime minister Viktor Chernomyrdin is set to start work for Russian President Dmitry Medvedev as a special envoy for economic cooperation with the former Soviet republics, the president's office reported Thursday.

Chernomyrdin, 71, has worked as Russia's ambassador to Ukraine since 2001, where he has at times been a controversial figure in Ukraine due to comments critical of the Ukrainian government.

Prime minister from 1992 to 1998 under former Russian president Boris Yeltsin, Chernomyrdin has also worked as a minister for the Russian gas industry. (dpa)
