Pavel Sorokin, Russia's deputy energy minister, is part of a galaxy of young technocrats with deep knowledge of the West, whom Vladimir Putin is rapidly pushing into the upper echelons of power.

Mr. Sorokin has become Russia's "secret weapon" in easing the impact of Western sanctions, said Viktor Katona, a leading oil analyst at commodity data firm Kpler. He said he believed many of Ukraine's allies were underestimating the experience of a new generation of Western-trained Kremlin leaders. Sorokin "is the embodiment of what did not exist in the Soviet Union," he said. "He belongs to a new breed of young people who have a choice" and who decided to work in the Russian government.
