Congratulations, 16.02.2021

Today we are congratulating Viktor Sheinis on his anniversary. The Yabloko party was created in a large part due to Viktor Sheinis. It was Viktor Leonidovich Sheinis in 1993 who proposed to Grigory Yavlinsky to form a political association to participate in the parliamentary elections, he is also one of the authors of the Yabloko ideology.

Viktor Sheinis started his career as a history teacher at school. After his article “The Truth About Hungary” criticising the Soviet invasion of Hungary, he was expelled from the graduate school of the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR and ended up among the workers of the Kirov plant in Leningrad.

Six years later, he was able to return to academic work, as a result he became one of the leading Russian experts on the economics and politics of developing countries. In 1993 he took part in the drafting of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. For two convocations he was a State Duma deputy.

We are happy to congratulate Viktor Leonidovich on his birthday, and wishing him good health and staying with Yabloko as long as possible.
