The analytical center of Yuri Levada (Levada Center) is included in the register of foreign agents. The Ministry of Justice did this on the basis of an audit conducted on August 12-30, 2016 at the request of the leader of the Antimaydan movement, a member of the Federation Council Dmitry Sablin.

Mr. Konovalov, In connection with the message of your ministry that the Levada Center sociological group received the status of a foreign agent for the performance of relevant work for the University of Wisconsin (University of Wisaconsin Madison), I ask you to consider my application about the need for a uniform application of the law.
