Igor Vladimirovich Lebedev (né Zhirinovsky; Russian: Игорь Владимирович Лебедев né Жириновский; born 27 September 1972) is a Russian politician. He is a former deputy of the State Duma, a Deputy Chairman of the Duma, and chairman of the populist Liberal Democratic Party of Russia's Duma parliamentary group, and of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia's Youth Organization. He was a member of the State Duma's Committees on Budget Issues and Taxes, and State Building and Legislation. His father was Vladimir Zhirinovsky, chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia.[2]
As of 12 September 2014, Lebedev was sanctioned by the European Union for voting "... in favour of the draft Federal Constitutional Law ‘on the acceptance into the Russian Federation of the Republic of Crimea and the formation within the Russian Federation of new federal subjects - the republic of Crimea and the City of Federal Status Sevastopol’."[3]
He uses the name Lebedev, his mother's maiden name, due to his parents not wanting his father's surname to be associated with their son.
Controversy
Following supporter violence involving Russian fans at the Euro 2016 tournament, Lebedev tweeted "nothing wrong with fans fighting" and to "keep up the good work".[4]
In March 2017, Lebedev proposed legalising football hooliganism and turning it into a sport.[5][6][7]
