What is Navalny doing now? Who is Alexey Navalny: biography, fight against corruption, political activity

Alexey Navalny is a representative of the non-systemic opposition, founder of the Anti-Corruption Foundation (FBK), a professional lawyer and chairman of the Progress Party. He came to the attention of the official media at the end of 2011 - then the young politician was presented to the general public as one of the leaders of the protests that swept across the country as a result of mass discontent with election fraud.

But the television audience managed to get to know him as the editor-in-chief of the “Fight Club” program, broadcast on the TVC channel. However, it did not last long and was soon taken off the air. Internet users learned about Navalny’s activities even earlier, thanks to revealing publications on LiveJournal. The blog, which was blocked today in 2008, quickly aroused interest and gained subscribers.

In 1997, Navalny graduated from the Peoples' Friendship University of Russia, receiving a diploma in law, and began working. In parallel with work, in 2001 he received a second specialty at the Financial Academy under the Government of the Russian Federation - economist. Despite the fact that the politician is also credited with Yale University, Navalny limited himself to two diplomas from Russian universities, having attended only a six-month course at Yale in 2010.

At the end of the 90s, he managed to open his own company offering hairdressing services (Nesna LLC), worked at Aeroflot Bank, worked on currency control and antimonopoly legislation, and traded shares professionally. Navalny also has a share in the family business - 25% of the authorized capital of Kobyakovskaya Wicker Factory LLC.

The acquisition of small blocks of shares in the largest Russian corporations served as the basis for the first anti-corruption investigations. Being a minority shareholder, he was able to demand reporting information on the activities of management companies and even seek the initiation of criminal cases. The anti-corruption official targeted the managers of the famous VTB Bank, as well as the largest corporations in the gas and oil sectors:

• Gazprom;
• Rosneft;
• Transneft;
• Gazpromneft;
• Surgutneftegaz;
• TNK-BP.

In 2009, Navalny was appointed as a freelance adviser to the governor of the Kirov region, Nikita Belykh, in the Kirov region he received lawyer status and a year later became a member of the Moscow international bar association “Mezhregion”.

In 2012, the popular blogger was included in the Board of Directors of Aeroflot OJSC, where he deals with issues of personnel policy and audit, bonus and reward systems. In his new capacity, Navalny will try to implement his own corporate governance program (), introduce the principle of financial transparency and a system of anonymous notifications from staff about all observed violations and abuses (). But such cooperation will last only until 2013.

The founder of the Anti-Corruption Foundation, Alexei Navalny, was doused with brilliant green outside his office

The leader of the non-systemic opposition took an active part in the activities of such parties as Yabloko and RPR-Parnas. It is with membership in Yabloko that Alexei Navalny’s official political career begins. He submitted an application for membership back in 2000, while working as a member of Yabloko he became acquainted with other representatives and activists of the liberal democratic movement, and in 2001 he represented the Union of Right Forces party in the elections in one of the district election commissions.

During the period of his membership in Yabloko, Navalny defended the interests of citizens in the framework of the fight against compaction development, and in 2003 he led the Duma election campaign in Moscow. With the participation of Maria, Gaidar created the youth movement “YES” - the Democratic Alternative, and as part of it participated in the project “Police with the People” and for freedom of the media. A year before his expulsion from the party, Yabloko created another project - “Political Debates”.

However, after 7 years of friendship, the paths diverge - Navalny is dissatisfied with Grigory Yavlinsky, and the Yabloko party no longer wants to see Alexei in its ranks, blaming him for his excessive passion for the ideas of Russian nationalism. On December 14, 2007, Navalny was officially expelled from the party, with the wording: “for causing political damage.” Soon after this, the first large-scale anti-corruption project, Rospil, was launched, which immediately attracted the attention of network users. It was followed by no less spectacular, but more practical “RosYama” - about the problems of Russian roads, and “RosZhKH”. Navalny himself considers the results of these projects to be his achievements:

• more than 20,000 users of the RosYama service were able to not only complain about poor-quality roads, but also receive feedback from the authorities and get the road surface repaired.
• More than 100,000 complaints were sent by citizens participating in the RosZhKH project, while a significant part managed to achieve timely and high-quality provision of services (repairs, cleaning, etc.).
• More than 700,000 billion rubles were disputed by Navalny’s team in the courts as part of the Rospil project after careful consideration of tenders and purchases, and were retained in the Russian budget.

Currently, the politician heads his own Progress Party. Shortly after the 2013 Moscow mayoral elections, Navalny joined the People's Alliance political party, which was renamed on February 8, 2014. The Progress Party was not allowed to participate in the 2016 Duma elections - it was officially excluded from the electoral process, but single-mandate voters and participants in regional election campaigns managed to circumvent the ban. The party has more than 60 regional branches registered, but by decision of the Ministry of Justice on the eve of the Duma elections it was excluded from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (USRLE). The impossibility of participating in the elections is also justified by the criminal cases opened against its participants.

Anti-corruption investigations continued on YouTube - in 2016, the exposé film “Chaika” was released, about the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation and his business empire, where the emphasis is on clanism and the illegal enrichment of Chaika’s sons, as well as on the family’s criminal connections. The demonstration of the film did not evoke responses or refutations from the main character himself, and the official media did not show it, limiting themselves to only pointing out the lack of evidence in court and the possible unreliability of the facts. On YouTube, the number of viewers reached 5 million.

Assessing the popularity of this format, throughout the year the politician releases short videos exposing the corruption of the country's top officials. These include sensational materials about the wife of the Deputy Prime Minister transporting her dogs on a private plane to participate in exhibitions, and investigations about the Russian and foreign real estate of persons close to or included in the leadership.

In the spring of 2017, a new film will be released dedicated to the current Prime Minister of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Anatolyevich Medvedev. “He’s not Dimon for you” was viewed by 25 million Russians in the very first days, and on April 26, both coordinated and uncoordinated rallies and actions against corruption took place in Moscow, St. Petersburg and 80 other Russian cities. Many participants made a toy duck and sneakers their symbol - as a sign of protest against theft and dishonest enrichment.

Personal Beliefs

If Alexei Navalny’s dislike of corruption is widely supported, then his other beliefs cannot but alarm both supporters of the ruling party and the opposition. First of all, this is commitment to nationalist ideas and participation in “Russian marches”. Alexey himself explains in an interview that his beliefs and principles are “not for deportation, but for assimilation” - and in this his thoughts are in tune with many far-right Western European populist politicians. However, in a multi-ethnic state such as modern Russia, such statements do not find understanding and approval among everyone.

Navalny’s position is aimed at tightening migration and visa policies, including protecting the rights of migrant workers. In defiance of the activities of Sergei Sobyanin, who flooded the capital with labor migrants from neighboring countries, the politician proposed introducing visas with Central Asian countries and quotas for jobs (about business with China →). Whether the founder of FBK expressed his ideas insufficiently correctly, or, on the contrary, involuntarily let slip his true principles, is unknown, but such a position not only added to his popularity among certain segments of the population, but also fundamentally quarreled with his former comrades.

Public opinion about Navalny

According to the results of a poll conducted by VTsIOM in May-June 2017 among 1,600 respondents, Navalny’s trust rating was 1.4%. Levada Center data for 2017 show that the number of people aware of Navalny decreased from 50% in January 2015 to 47% in February 2017, and the number of sympathizers dropped from 7% in October 2013 to 4% in February 2017. Hostility increased significantly over the same period - if in October 2013 only 3% of respondents experienced these emotions, then in February 2017 the figure increased to 10%.

In the spring, these figures changed slightly - the politician’s recognition reached 55% by the beginning of April 2017, and 10% of the population are already ready to give him their votes in the elections.

Unofficial data is also ambiguous - some doubt Navalny, considering him a project of one of the Kremlin towers, others, while fully supporting anti-corruption activities, are not sure that they want to see the politician as president. It is curious that participants in unauthorized rallies that swept across Russia in March and June 2017, when asked by independent media correspondents about support for Navalny, often answered that they took to the streets not for him, but against corruption. At the same time, part of the non-systemic opposition, on the contrary, calls to distract from criticism of Navalny’s personality and unite with him, since they see in this political figure the only real driving force for change.

Supporters of the ruling party are convinced that Navalny’s funding comes from abroad, by forces who want to forcibly change the political system of Russia.

The authorities' opinion of the oppositionist

Although interest in Navalny has increased over the past month, the official position of the current leadership has not been announced - the protests taking place in all major cities were not commented on in any way by the Kremlin press service, and the pressing question about the activities of the oppositionist and the attitude of the authorities towards him was not asked at the latter.

A short commentary on the released film “He’s Not Dimon for You” was given by the main character of this video, separating this type of fight against corruption from the real one and hinting at the order and financing of the project by circles hostile to Russia. Medvedev also pointed out the fact that the author of the film himself “is a convicted character.” The Prime Minister also condemned the organization of protests, pointing out that Navalny put young people “under the law enforcement machine.” There was also a reproach about the opposition leader's desire to try to take the presidency himself.

To date, Alexey Navalny remains a defendant in 2 criminal cases – “Kirovles” and “Yves-Rocher”. In the first case, charges were initially brought against blackmail and extortion of a bribe, but this charge was dropped and a new one was opened - Navalny is accused of stealing Kirovles products on an especially large scale. Currently, the head of FBK has been found guilty of embezzling 16 million rubles and sentenced to 4 years of probation, with a fine of 500 thousand rubles. (Part 4 of Article 160 of the Criminal Code).

In the second case (“Yves Rocher”), about the theft and laundering of funds from the injured party, Alexei Navalny’s brother, Oleg, who is currently serving time in prison, was convicted. On February 20, 2014, Alexei Navalny himself was placed under house arrest, and on December 30, 2014, like Oleg Navalny, he was sentenced to 3.5 years, but a suspended sentence. The head of FBK transferred the case materials to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR).

Plans for the future: Navalny's presidential program

Despite the fact that Alexei Navalny is involved in criminal cases, today he can still participate in the presidential race.

According to the law (Article 4, paragraph 3.2a of the 67th Federal Law “On Basic Guarantees of Electoral Rights”), citizens sentenced to imprisonment for committing serious crimes, whose convictions have been withdrawn or expunged, do not have the right to be elected.

It turns out that he was sentenced to a suspended sentence of imprisonment and, according to the Federal Law, cannot participate in elections, but on the other hand, he is not being held in prison by a court verdict.

The Constitutional Court itself explains that this situation only partially complies with the Federal Law.

The Constitutional Court ruled: restriction of the right to vote is not a criminal punishment, but can be applied in the mechanism of general legal consequences of conviction without special indication in the sentence.

The legislator indicated that he has the right to formulate the very concept of deprivation of liberty differently so that restrictions on voting rights are not imposed on persons who are not held in prisons or under escort in places of deprivation of liberty.

On his website, Navalny’s election program is briefly outlined and consists of several main points:

• The fight against corruption and transparency of anti-corruption processes. If an official’s standard of living runs counter to his official income, an investigation must be conducted publicly, and a criminal case must be initiated against such an official.
• Transparency of state-owned companies. Navalny’s team has already developed a bill to stop nepotism and theft of the budget in state corporations.
• Changes in tax legislation. Such changes should be aimed at those for whom the tax burden will be eased. Individual entrepreneurs should be completely exempt from paying taxes, and the tax itself should be accepted on a progressive scale.
• and pensions. The growth of citizens' well-being will be ensured by establishing a higher minimum wage - 25 thousand rubles, and pensions should become higher.
• Health and education. The budget should be redistributed in such a way that spending on these most important components of the country's well-being is increased.
• Subsidizing mortgage programs and debureaucratization in housing construction. This part of the program should increase the availability of housing and lead to a reduction in its cost.

⇒ Navalny gained the greatest fame during the election campaign for the post of mayor of Moscow in September 2013 - during meetings he held in various districts and districts of Moscow and solving pressing problems of Muscovites. The results of this acquaintance made it possible to be far ahead of other candidates - Ivan Melnikov (10.69%), Sergei Mitrokhin (3.51%), Mikhail Degtyarev (2.86%) and Nikolai Levichev (2.79%). However, the palm had to be conceded to the current mayor of Moscow, Sergei Sobyanin - he was ahead of his competitors, gaining 51.37%, while Alexei Navalny himself received 27.24% of votes.

⇒ Navalny does not attend most of the announced and organized rallies and actions. His participation was hampered by house arrest or police detention before he could join his support group. During the last protest action, the oppositionist was detained when leaving his own entrance and left in custody for 15 days.

⇒ If the beginning of Navalny’s anti-corruption activities was marked by several striking victories and criminal cases, now the head of FBK increasingly has to appear in court on filed libel claims, and in some of which the decision was not in his favor (for example, a libel case was carried out in accordance with the claim against Navalny from).

The other day, Alexei Navalny, who is tipped to be the leader of the opposition and almost the future president of Russia, registered the Anti-Corruption Foundation and began collecting legal donations.

Lord of the "hamsters"

You could say that as a politician Alexey Navalny was born on the Internet. There he started a blog, which later grew into the mega-popular online resource about corruption “RosPil”.

It would seem that it has never been a secret to anyone that in Russia there is theft and rampant corruption. But it was on this platform, trampled many times by the independent press, politicians, and even the authorities themselves, that popularity began to grow rapidly Alexei Navalny. “Respect!”, “You are doing an important job,” “It’s good that such a person exists” - the virtual wrestler was quickly elevated to a virtual pedestal by his virtual friends.

Navalny hit the target clearly - the audience was waiting for such a lone fighter who, with facts and figures, would call all the unsightly things by their true names. Virtual Robin Hood quickly assembled his own small, combat-ready online army, which, as if on command, immediately “tears” on the Internet everyone who doubts the radiance of Navalny’s image.

– Navalny not the smartest of bloggers, not the bravest, he’s not even the first - before him there were sites and blogs exposing corruption (for example, Zakupki news by Alexander Malyutin. - Ed.), but it’s a blog Alexei Navalny became number one on this topic. For people familiar with political technologies and the basics of PR, it is obvious that serious efforts and, probably, funds were involved here to promote this blog, says an expert from the Center for Political Conjuncture Dmitry Abzalov.– In addition, it is not without reason to assume that initially the blog had not so much political as business goals: Navalny became a minority shareholder in many state-owned and blue-chip companies, received and partially published internal information, and also started lawsuits, in during which access was opened to documents that had not previously been made public. The Transneft company openly called these actions “industrial espionage.” Such technologies were widely used in the USA in the 80–90s and, perhaps, have reached us.

Navalny really brought horror to the hitherto “unafraid” and all-powerful structures - VTB, Sberbank, Gazprom.

Internet “hamsters” (a stable expression in relation to the Internet crowd) began to dedicate poems, websites and enthusiastic posts to Navalny throughout the vast space of the Internet. The voices of some experts who considered Navalny’s activities to be camouflaged “greenmail” (corporate blackmail) sounded quieter and more boring.

Virtuality and reality

Online Alexey Navalny received everything: the position of “mayor of Moscow” according to Internet users, maximum trust according to online polls, the delight of bloggers. But the blogosphere, by definition, is the most critical and distrustful audience, so in a bright guise Navalny not immediately, but there were spots.

A pleasant young man with a short and transparent biography is an ideal option for the role of a “Teflon politician” who is not in danger of any exposure.

– You’re probably talking about Lesha? Of course, I remember him,” the former class teacher told Interlocutor Navalny Irina Vakhrusheva. “He was from a very good family: his father was a military man, his mother worked in the administration of a large furniture company, was on the parent committee and was always worried about Lyosha, interested in all his affairs. But he gave no reason for worry: he was always smart, balanced, serious, very calm, although not always convenient for teachers - he could disagree and argue with the teacher.

Alexey Navalny grew up in a small military town near Moscow. The times were the most difficult for the army - the 90s. On the one hand, there is a prosperous family, on the other, there is widespread talk about “traitors who ruined the country.” The opposition vector was given Navalny since school days.

Navalny entered the Peoples' Friendship University of Russia, after graduating from which he went to the Financial Academy under the Government of the Russian Federation to study stock exchange business. As they say, ambitious applicants enter the “Belodom” university in order to acquire useful connections from the criminal institute.

Having received two prestigious diplomas, Alexey Navalny did not pursue a career in the generally accepted sense. He was caught up in politics. He joined Yabloko, but in 2007 he was expelled from the party with the wording “for causing political damage to the party, in particular for nationalist activities.” To this day, there are videos from “early Navalny” circulating on the Internet, where he demonstrates the advantages of a fly swatter, a slipper and a pistol, which can be used to deal with a fly, a cockroach and a Caucasian, respectively.

“Believe me, I don’t have a tattoo with Hitler,” Navalny jokes about the topic of nationalism, which is inconvenient for him now, which has become a dragging burden for a federal politician, where he is aiming.

But it is known that Navalny is a participant in all “Russian Marches” without exception. Old Yabloko members tell how Navalny, when he lacked arguments, could interrupt his party colleague, an Armenian woman: “But your place is in the market!” And in 2007, during a debate at the Gogol club Navalny shot several times from a traumatic pistol at car mechanic Timur Teziev, which is why a criminal case was opened, which was closed six months later.

U Navalny there is no work history in the general sense: he does not go to the office or the workshop, but rather to rallies and marches. Almost his only official place of work was as an adviser to Governor Nikita Belykh in the Kirov region in 2009–2010. Assisting the most liberal head of the region in Russia is a good thing, but it is unlikely that Navalny himself likes to remember that period: the director of the local enterprise Kirovles accused Navalny of imposing an unprofitable contract and actually ruining the enterprise, and the head Navalny The Foundation for Supporting Initiatives of the Governor of the Kirov Region was disgraced by letters to entrepreneurs asking them to make a financial contribution.

Skeletons in the closet

A revolutionary on the Internet, in real life Navalny is a well-fed bourgeois who drove around Kirov in a gold Lamborghini, around Moscow in an Infinity, and celebrates the New Year in a country that is not the cheapest for tourist trips from Russia - Mexico.

“The Lamborghini is not mine, they let me drive it,” Alexey innocently parries the questions of Internet users.

It is known that Navalny lived in the United States for about six months, studied at Yale University and often visits the States. In America, they say, Navalny’s wife also lives most of the time.

It turns out that fighting for a just cause with proper organization can become a good business. Navalny’s project “RosPil” has already collected 5 million rubles in donations, some of which came in large contributions.

"It is clear that Navalny We've scrolled through the dough - and we need to somehow legalize this grant. But it’s not that oaky, yeah. SUDDENLY a million. In a day,” the political scientist commented on his blog Timofey Shevyakov.

Opponents Navalny they wonder how a professional fighter for truth lives and supports his wife and two children, and they wonder whose Navalny project – the USA or the Kremlin?

“The United States, of course, has a long-standing “image of the enemy,” and the Kremlin may be trying to channel the opposition under Navalny, lead it in circles, let it off steam,” says Dmitry Abzalov.

Alexey Navalny- This is the first Russian attempt to create a professional “white-gloved” politician. And so it was. But exactly until the virtual image acquired the features of a real person.

Alexey Navalny was born near Moscow, in the small town of Butyn. He grew up in a complete family with his father Anatoly Navalny and mother Lyudmila Navalnaya. Anatoly was from the Chernobyl region, and here he received his military education. Alexey's mother was born in a small village near the city of Zelenogradsk. She received her education in this village and then worked in various factories.

In 1993, one of the factories where Lyudmila worked went bankrupt. Immediately the parents decide to use this opportunity and create a workshop in this bankrupt factory. When Alexey finishes school, he enters the Peoples' Friendship University at the Faculty of Law. In 1999, he entered the financial academy, which he successfully completed and received a diploma. During his studies Alexey worked as a lawyer and then as an economist.

Activities as a politician

Alexei Navalny was a member of the political council of the Yabloko party from 2000 to 2007. Then he often organized various popular movements and nationalist processions. He repeatedly created political organizations that defended people's rights.

In 2008, Navalny, together with his like-minded people, began to organize an active struggle against oil companies, which, according to him, did not respond to numerous requests. In 2010 Alexey Navalny founded the RosPil organization, which quickly found its like-minded people. Thanks to active and effective actions to suppress fraud, within a year a large amount of money was saved for the state budget. For this, the organization received an award at an international competition.

The Anti-Corruption Foundation is the only private organization in Russia investigating cases of such importance. Roads are considered an important issue for Russia, with which the state is always in trouble, and to solve it, a project was founded that allows anyone to show a photograph of a section of the road unsuitable for driving.

Complaints were sent to the traffic police, but the employees did not take action, so a paper was generated and sent to the prosecutor's office, necessary to provoke any work to correct the roads. It is also worth mentioning that Alexei Navalny discovered Shuvalov's private jet, in which his wife took her high-breed dogs to various shows.

Candidate for mayor of Moscow

In 2013, Navalny ran for the post of mayor of the Russian capital. Initially, he was registered only because a larger selection of candidates for the post of mayor of Moscow was needed, but, contrary to all expectations, he fell slightly short of first place in the voting results.

Court cases

The next day, Alexey collected a package of documents on election fraud. During the demonstration, people actively expressed their dissatisfaction with the Moscow government. During the march, the police detained Navalny, and Alexey received a 15-day arrest for allegedly resisting arrest. But the most important court case that unfolded around Navalny was became the Kirovles case, which dragged on for quite a long time.

The essence of this case is that Alexey Navalny and an entrepreneur, allegedly through misconception, made a deal with Opalev, the director of the above-described enterprise, on unfavorable terms for him. Alexey himself denied all guilt, citing that the case was fabricated due to the fact that Navalny achieved his goal, and the director of the enterprise was removed from his position.

The case was subsequently closed, but a couple of months later it was reopened due to new data. As a result of the entire long chain of proceedings, the accusation came into force. The politician explained this by saying that the case was formed to protect him from political participation in the life of the country.

Family life

Navalny has a beautiful wife Yulia, daughter Daria and son Zakhar, who was born in 2008. For a long time, a large family lived in a one-room apartment, but the four of them felt cramped, so they started looking for an apartment to rent.

Elections 2018

Preparations for the elections went like this:

1. At the end of 2016, Alexey expressed his intention to participate in the 2018 presidential elections in the Russian Federation.
2. An election campaign was organized in which he declared his intention to continue the fight against corruption schemes.
3. In the spring and summer of 2017, Navalny again organized strikes and rallies, as a result of which he was detained and received punishment, both in the form of a fine and serving a sentence of 15 and 30 days.

On December 27, Navalny was not allowed to participate in the 2018 elections because of the Kirovles case, despite its illegality. After this, the politician called on his like-minded people to join the strike.
