Lev Markovich Shlosberg (Russian:Лев Ма́ркович Шло́сберг; born 30 July 1963) is a Russianopposition politician, human-rights activist, journalist, historian[1] chairman of thePskov Oblast branch ofYabloko, and a member of the Yabloko Party's federal political committee.[2][3]
Shlosberg is ofAshkenazi Jewish descent. He joinedYabloko in 1994, becoming head of the Pskov branch of the party in 1996. From 2011 to 2015 he was a member of thePskov Oblast Assembly of Deputies.
He has gained fame in August 2014 when he made a publication for the newspaper «Pskovskaya guberniya», where he spread information about the suspicious deaths of troops of76th Guards Air Assault Division, Leonid Kichatkin and Alexander Osipov.[4] Shlosberg claimed they diedfighting in the Donbass.
In 2015, Shlosberg was deprived of authority by a court and by vote of fellow deputies. Shlosberg claims this was politically motivated.[5][6] That year, he ran for the post of chairman of the democratic partyYabloko. He was defeated byEmilia Slabunova in the second round.[7]
On 4 July 2016 he announced he was running forParliament, in that year'sState Duma Election, but lost the election in his constituency, coming in fifth with around 6% of the vote.[8][9] Nonetheless, that same election,Yabloko won one seat in thePskov Oblast Assembly of Deputies, and Shlosberg returned to the legislature.[10][11]
In 2021, Shlosberg decided to run in the2021 State Duma Elections, again as a candidate ofYabloko. However this time he is running in theKhovrino constituency inMoscow, instead of his home district ofPskov.[12]
He also ran in the simultaneous Pskov Oblast Assembly elections. On 3 August 2021 his registration as a candidate was declined, due to alleged links with bannedAnti-Corruption Foundation. However, on the next day he was registered, due to the fact that the court decision to ban Anti-Corruption Foundation was not yet final.
Regarding State Duma elections, however, on 9 August 2021 Moscow city court annulled his registration as a candidate, also due to alleged links with Anti-Corruption Foundation. Then he was also excluded from the federal Yabloko party list.[13]
In April 2022, following the increased repression after the2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Russian police filed charges against him and his wife for having "discredited" the Russian military.[14]
