Lyudmila Borisovna Narusova (Template:Lang-ru; born 2 May 1951) is a Russian politician, a member of the Federation Council of Russia, representing Tuva.[1] From 2010 to 2012, she represented Bryansk Oblast in the Federation Council of Russia.[2]

History scholar

Narusova was born in Bryansk, Russian SFSR, Soviet Union, the daughter of a Russian mother and of Boris Narusovich, a Jewish Platoon Commander of the Red Army and a lieutenant of the Komsomol, who later was appointed the Director of the School for the Deaf in Bryansk.[3][4] In 1969–1974, she studied history in Leningrad State University. Then, in 1977–1980, she studied history at the graduate school of the Institute of History of the Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union and worked at Saint Petersburg State University. In 1980, she married Anatoly Sobchak.[5] After obtaining Ph.D. in History (Template:Lang-ru), she taught history at the Saint Petersburg Academy of Culture.[6]

Political career

Narusova entered Russian politics when she was elected to the State Duma in 1995. She was a member of "Our Home – Russia" faction until 2006. Since 2000, Narusova became a host of TV-show "Freedom of speech" at St. Petersburg branch of RTR.

In October 2002, she was elected a member of the Federation Council of Russia from Tuva Republic. Since 2010, Narusova served as a senator from Bryansk Oblast, but she was dismissed by Nikolay Demin, a former governor of Bryansk Oblast. In 2016, she became a member of the Federation Council of Russia from Tuva Republic for a new term.

In 2013, Narusova was expelled from the Fair Russia party. However, she later claimed she had never formally been a member of a party.[7]

Criticism of invasion of Ukraine

In response to 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Narusova on 27 February stated in a television interview: "I do not identify myself with those representatives of the state that speak out in favor of the war. I think they themselves do not know what they are doing. They are following orders without thinking." She also stated that Russian soldiers in Ukraine lay "unburied; wild, stray dogs gnawing on bodies that in some cases cannot be identified because they are burned."[8] On 4 March Narusova told the Federation Council, in livestreamed proceedings, of the heavy losses Russian forces were suffering in Ukraine. She claimed to know of a 100-strong Russian conscript company of whom "only four were left alive" when the unit was withdrawn.[9]

Family
