Vladimir Volfovich Zhirinovskiy is a person who strikes with
everything he does and speaks. He is the person who is loved or hated, ignored
or worshiped. There is not a person who does not care of him.
Vladimir
Volfovich Zhirinovskiy was born in Almaty on April 25, 1946 and he graduated
from the Institute of Oriental Languages at the Moscow State
University named after
M.V. Lomonosov majoring in Turkish language and literature. Later he continued study
at the Faculty of Law at the same University which he completed excellently. As
a student at the Institute of Oriental Languages, Zhirinovskiy also studied at
the Faculty of International Affairs, University of Marxism and Leninism. He served at the Political Department
of the Headquarter located in Tbilisi within 1970 - 1972, later he worked at the
Soviet Committee of World Protection at the Department of Troubles in Western
Europe in 1973 to 1975. He was an employee at the dean's office of the Higher School
of Union Trade Affairs in 1975, then a a member to the Foreign Law Board within
1975 - 1983, and he headed the juridical department at the Editing House «Mir»
within 1983 - 1990.
Vladimir Volfovich
Zhirinovskiy started a new stage in his life since 1990 when he became the
party member, then he joined the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia and on June
12, 1991 he voted for the post of the President of Russia. And that was the
time when the whole world acknowledged his existence as a personality. Zhirinovsliy
exploited the shocking approach of performing which was captivating for many
people. He freely talked on and on the things which were discussed whispering
though he felt at ease. He declaimed for liberal Russia and he succeeded acquiring
too many followers. He won the popularity when he made a decision to distribute
free of charge the women lingerie in Moscow! He grew popular in the part of the
society when in the other part he was believed to be an outcast.
Since then Zhirinovskiy paved his way in politics. Within 1993 - 1995 Zhirinovskiy is the
First State Duma member of Russian
Federation and in December 1995 he was
elected the deputy to the 2nd State Duma of Russian Federation. He was voted
for the President of Russian Federation by the Liberal Democratic Party. In January
1996 he was renominated for the President of Russian Federation by the Liberal
Democratic Party. By the way, Zhirinovskiy gathered 5,78% votes of
electors. Five point seven seem to be a little though if you read it in numbers
the situation is different. About 15500000 people voted for him. It is not little
especially considering opponents to Zhirinovskiy. Then, at the Presidential election
of 2000, in
March, he collected votes of about two million electors. His popularity perhaps declined or his
scandalous behavior was rather shocking than enjoying, either people preferred
quiet and calm person rather than ever-active Vladimir Volfovich.
Zhirinovskiy’s life is like the biography of the politician.
Though he has his personal life. He is married, has a son, Igor Lebedev who was elected the Head of the Parliament
Fraction of Liberal Democratic Party in 2000. That was when Zhirinovskiy was elected
the Deputy Chairman of the State Duma of the third call and had to deny the
leadership of the Liberal Democratic Party Parliament Fraction. He has two
twin grandchildren. Zhirinovskiy
admitted in his public interviews that it takes him almost all his tome to get involved
in political activity and he is not a family-oriented person at all. He is said
to be married to politics and he dates
it with the passion of the man who is permanently in love.
This «dirty» politician, startling provoker, a person who
urges on fights and insults in the Parliament keeps the entire zoo at
home. There are three dogs (bulldog беспороднымалабай called Sharik,
three cats (Max, Canadian sphinx, бурма Gref, and Churchill- the cat
from Britain) and Jako, a parrot live there at his place. And
Zhirinovskiy
treats pets differently than people. named Komod, wire-haired fox
terrier named Volt, and a mongrel
On the contrary,
Zhirinovskiy is a genuine troublemaker in politics. He is known for outrageous
performance in the Parliament and on air in different talk shows. TV channels broadcast,
the newspapers publish, video clips and photos of his behavior are posted in Internet.
Though before you call him a clown
and brazen boor, just bear in your mind that he graduated from several higher institutions,
he speaks four foreign languages, he is the doctor of Philosophy Science and on
December 29, 2000 Vladimir Zhirinovskiy was awarded the title of Honored Lawyer
of the Russian Federation by the Decree of Vladimir Putin, the former President
of Russia, for outstanding public service to strengthen the Russian government
and active lawmaking activity. And this makes more sense.
