LDPR leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky died

The leader of the LDPR Vladimir Zhirinovsky died. He ended up in the hospital in early February with the Omicron-Skamm of Coronavirus.

“After a serious and prolonged illness, Vladimir Volfovich Zhirinovsky passed away,” the State Duma speaker Vyacheslav Volodin wrote in his telegram channel on April 6.

The first time about the death of the politician was reported on March 25. But then both the party and Volodin denied this.

In early February, Zhirinovsky entered the Central Clinical Hospital (Central Design Bureau) with the Omicron-Skamm of Koronavirus. Since then, he has been under the supervision of doctors. The media periodically reported a deterioration in his condition, but in the LDPR they more than once denied this.

Vladimir Zhirinovsky was born in 1946.

The head of the analytical department of Taiga.info, Alexei Mazur, has already given a forecast for what would happen to the LDPR in the event of Zhirinovsky’s departure. We give his words:

Of course, if Vladimir Volfovich will be out of politics, the LDPR will come “black” times. Most likely, it will cease to exist as a party. Unless they completely brazenly “draw” some interest.

All the years of its existence, the LDPR has performed a very important function. On the one hand, it should be noted the genius of Zhirinovsky as a politician. In a sense, if he was a real fighter for power, I think that in the nineties he could come to power. If he had seriously engaged in this. Another thing is that his task is not to come to power, but to have a faction, to distribute mandates and constantly be a star of television broadcasts.

If you think about it, the LDPR is brilliant. Who votes for the LDPR? Those who are dissatisfied with everyone. People who are clearly against everything that is happening is radical enough. Here they vote for the LDPR, then Zhirinovsky comes with their "falcons" to the State Duma, and there, on all issues, it votes as the Kremlin should. At the same time, when Zhirinovsky goes to the rostrum, he cuts the “truth-uterus”, he does this brilliantly, due to this he receives voices.

On the other hand, it is also difficult to directly blame people who vote for the LDPR. We will be honest, from how these fractions vote - the LDPR, “SR”, even the Communists - nothing depends. EP still has a majority. And the fact that one person from time to time goes to the rostrum and tells the truth is also a lot.
