Personal life

Vitaly Milonov married Eva Liburkina in his youth. She gave birth to her husband a daughter and a son, whose names are Martha and Nikolai. Somewhat later, Vitaly Milonov and his wife Eva adopted the boy.

1991 in personal life politics was marked by the fact that Milonov began to attend meetings of Evangelical Christians. In 1998 he joined Orthodox science. He was noticed several times in in public places, wearing a T-shirt with the rather extremist inscription “Orthodoxy and Death.”

The politician is well educated, encyclopedicly erudite, fluent in Norwegian and English.

Investigators asked to send the deputy to a psychiatrist for examination. The reason for this was the statement of the St. Petersburg legislator about the transfer of St. Isaac's Cathedral, which, according to the author of the complaint, could also cost Milonov criminal punishment. How the author of the law banning gay propaganda ended up in the State Duma, why they tried to punish him before and why they decided to check for adequacy - in the material.

On Sunday, February 12, Vitaly Milonov said that deputies of the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg oppose the transfer of Isaac to the Russian Orthodox Church only for the sake of political PR. And in general, Christians survived despite the fact that their ancestors “boiled us in cauldrons and gave us to be torn to pieces by wild beasts,” he added. The next day, Milonov’s former colleague at the St. Petersburg Legislature brought him to justice for inciting national hatred and enmity, but first sent him for a psychological and psychiatric examination.

In November 2016, it was not Milonov himself who paid a fine for extremism, but a Chuvash activist who reposted a photo of a deputy wearing a T-shirt with the banned slogan “Orthodoxy or Death.” The legislator himself for his political career They were brought to justice only on Twitter - by blocking their account for statements about American democratic hell.

From the Red River to the State Duma

43-year-old Vitaly Milonov, a state administrator by training, began his political career in the Northern capital in the 90s. Then he joined the Free Democratic Party of Russia, whose leadership included a politician and a human rights activist. Almost 25 years later, he is critical of them: “Unprincipled opportunists. I wouldn’t like to talk much about them: they are rather part of the harsh past of our Russia.”

After this, Milonov worked for more than five years as an assistant to a State Duma deputy - a “young padawan”, like himself as a politician in this status. First - from , the initiator of the creation of the Young Christian Democrats organization, which was later headed by Milonov, and then from . Unlike Salye and Ponomarev, the politician speaks about her with sympathy, calling her a patriot and “at heart a believer.”

After the murder of Starovoytova, Milonov became an assistant to the senator, then a deputy of the St. Petersburg Legislative Assembly. Before Milonov himself was elected to the Legislative Assembly of the Northern capital, he worked as a deputy municipality Dachnoe and the head of the Krasnenkaya Rechka district administration.

Despite all the ambiguity of the initiatives and statements for which Milonov became famous while working in the St. Petersburg Legislative Assembly, he not only received the medal of the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, II degree, but also easily found himself back in the State Duma. And this time - in the role of a deputy. The tireless legislator and fighter for purity of morals went through the preliminary voting procedure, after which he became a party candidate in the Duma elections. United Russia considered it natural that a bright party member would defeat an opponent with extensive experience in the State Duma apparatus. Milonov’s fame in the city played into Milonov’s hands, explained the secretary of the United Russia General Council: “There is nothing surprising in Milonov’s victory, since the boundaries of District 218 include the territories from which Milonov is elected to the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg.”

LGBT aspen stake and no sex before marriage

Milonov did not limit himself to the scale of the city in his legislative initiatives. In 2012, his proposed law banning gay propaganda was adopted at the city level, and a year later a similar document appeared at the federal level. Representatives of sexual minorities and their defenders, including world stars, for example, suffered from Milonov more than once. “I heard that at the concerts of this tour she pulled off her leggings - we don’t need that here,” the parliamentarian said. He criticized the singer for LGBT propaganda. Milonov decided to insure himself in advance against the performance of the Austrian singer Tom Neuwirth, known under the pseudonym, and sent a proposal to the Minister of Culture to ban his (her) tour.

In general, the lawmaker believes, “a stake needs to be driven into this whole LGBT activism.” “There has become too much of it. They undeservedly attract a lot of attention to themselves,” he said, commenting on the idea of ​​holding a gay pride parade on Airborne Forces Day.

The ban on gay propaganda is just one step towards consolidating traditional values ​​in a number of Milonov's proposals concerning the personal lives of Russians. Repeatedly his attention was attracted by the reality show “Dom-2”. He even volunteered to personally teach its participants a moral lesson. “I am sure that after talking with me many of them will become normal Orthodox hipsters. Our Savior Christ, too, did not come to kings, but to alcoholics and prostitutes,” Milonov. The parliamentarian also considered the Western cult series “Game of Thrones” to be harmful to traditional values, where every tenth character, in his opinion, is a “sexual deviant.” True, the deputy has not seen a single episode of the TV show.

Milonov tried to fight immorality both on a small scale - by introducing a ban on walking around St. Petersburg in shorts and swimsuits, and on a large scale - by proposing a ban on sexual intercourse before marriage.

Having become a State Duma deputy, Milonov lowered the temperature a little: on the eve of Valentine's Day, he called for a ban on only erotic media. By the way, the politician also proposed to ban the holiday of all lovers, celebrated today, like Halloween.

United Russia also calls on its colleagues to maintain moral principles. In December, he introduced a bill to the lower house of parliament that would prohibit alcoholics and drug addicts from entering the civil service. At plenary sessions of the State Duma, Milonov carefully monitors the speeches of those present and notices their mistakes: he pointed out to the TV presenter that it is not appropriate to call husbands and fiancés partners. Milonov also has a radical proposal for deputies: to make changes to the regulations prohibiting “talking for half a day.”

Emotional outbursts with parliamentary status

Milonov's sharp attacks and unexpected initiatives do not always go unanswered. In the fall of 2014, then still the head of St. Petersburg, prepared a lawsuit against her colleague demanding that he be brought to civil and criminal liability, including for extremism and insulting the authorities. Shortly before this, Milonov demanded that Dmitrieva voluntarily surrender her mandate as a State Duma deputy and leave politics altogether, since the head of the St. Petersburg Spravorossov is allegedly a representative of the “fifth column” and is engaged in “creating hysteria” around the topic of gubernatorial elections.

Local representatives of United Russia called the accusations unfounded. The details of the consideration of the claim were not separately reported, and Dmitrieva has now left both the State Duma and the A Just Russia party.

Industry organizations and businesses do not enter into conflict with Milonov, but only delicately express bewilderment. As, for example, in connection with the deputy’s idea to develop rules of conduct for Russians abroad. “In the case of our citizens, this is excessive work, and it would make sense to do something more useful,” said the director of ATOR

The party treats the politician’s fervor almost calmly; they explain his words as private opinions and try not to stir up problems. “As for Vitaly Milonov’s emotional outburst, this is exclusively his personal initiative,” United Russia said after he called on the former Socialist-Revolutionary to join the party of the Duma majority. “If he has his own pocket party, he can invite it there.”

And yet, the party members did not send Milonov to establish international contacts, just in case. Last fall, he was not included in the list of United Russia candidates for the Russian delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly (PACE). Although the danger was small: the Duma members still do not plan to work in PACE.

However, there is hope that the deputy will become a sedate lawmaker. After St. Petersburg parliamentarian Kovalev demanded that Milonov be checked by a psychiatrist, the moral fighter promised to choose his expressions more carefully. “Probably, thanks to this, I will be able to express myself even more carefully, although much more carefully,” Milonov told Lente.ru.

If he fulfills his promise, the politician who moved to the State Duma will find a worthy replacement. While Kovalev and Milonov were bickering on the pages of the media, the St. Petersburg deputy proposed to legalize sorcerers and magicians, and at the same time promised his colleagues real stars from the sky - for high-quality lawmaking.

Vitaly Milonov is one of the most extravagant politicians modern Russia, known for his high-profile bills that cause a strong reaction in society. He considers himself a “political hipster” and a fighter for Orthodox values, but many see him as a banal political careerist who, using the image of an ultra-conservative, is trying to break through to political heights.

Due to this, he became the first and only deputy in the entire history of the legislative assembly of St. Petersburg, whose resignation is dreamed of by the majority of the population of the northern capital of Russia and cultural figures who are not ready to put up with the “delusional and absurd” initiatives of the politician.

Milonov Vitaly Valentinovich was born on January 23, 1974 in the cultural capital of Russia. His parents were naval officer Valentin Nikolaevich and primary school teacher Tatyana Evgenievna, who doted on their son, since he was their late, only and very desirable one. Spoiled by his parents, the future deputy in childhood was a naughty boy who preferred the company of the yard to studying at school, so he was not a high achiever and was a “C” student.

After graduating from school, Milonov wanted to follow in his father’s footsteps and intended to enter the Military Engineering Technical School. His plans to become a military man were not successful - Vitaly Valentinovich was not accepted into the educational institution for health reasons. After this, the future lawmaker entered the Leningrad State University at the Faculty of Philology. But this attempt to get higher education also turned out to be a failure, as he was expelled from the university due to poor academic performance.

Only in 2006, Milonov graduated from the North-Western Institute of Civil Service under the President of the Russian Federation, where he studied at the faculty of state municipal administration. Later he became a student at the correspondence faculty of the Orthodox St. Tikhon's Humanitarian University.

Policy

Vitaly Milonov's political career started in the early 90s. Then he joined the Free Democratic Party of Russia, whose co-chairs at that moment were the famous Russian oppositionists Lev Ponomarev and Marina Salye. At the same moment, to the surprise of his family, in which the spirit of atheism reigned, the aspiring politician showed interest in religion and began attending meetings of the Evangelical Church.

Then his activities were noticed by State Duma deputy Vitaly Savitsky, who in 1994 made Milonov his assistant, thereby giving him a “start” in the world of politics. During the same period, Vitaly Valentinovich created the “Young Christian Democrats” movement, at the head of which he showed remarkable activity and loudly declared himself in the political world. A few years later he was noticed by the leader democratic movement St. Petersburg, State Duma deputy and famous human rights activist Galina Starovoitova, who took Milonov into her team and became his so-called “godmother” in his political career.

In 1998, at the suggestion of Starovoytova, Vitaly Valentinovich submitted his candidacy for elections to the St. Petersburg parliament, but literally a few days before the vote he abandoned the fight for a deputy mandate in favor of Vadim Tyulpanov from the Unity party, which was the main rival of the Democratic Party. Milonov’s colleagues regarded this act as a betrayal, but this did not change the opinion of the aspiring politician.

Having given the vacant post to his main competitor Tyulpanov, he became his assistant and already in 2004 began moving up the career ladder in the ranks of the party." United Russia". "First, he was elected as a deputy of the municipal formation in the Dachnoye district, and a year later he became the head of the municipal administration in the Krasnenkaya Rechka district.

Bills

Deputy Vitaly Milonov became widely known in 2011 after initiating the law on homosexuality and pedophilia, which was approved and adopted by deputies, but caused a controversial reaction not only in Russian society, but also abroad. According to this law, he unsuccessfully tried to bring to justice the Rammstein group, who decided to come to the Northern capital of Russia and hold their shows in support of gay communities.

In 2012, Milonov advocated banning the teaching of Darwinian theory in schools, as he considers the concept of “evolution” stupid, because, in his opinion, man arose by the will of God. During the same period, the politician put forward another high-profile bill, proposing to grant civil rights to embryos, which his colleagues called a “crazy idea.”

Milonov also actively opposes the international Eurovision contest, which, in his opinion, promotes homosexuality, and groundlessly initiates a ban on free abortions in Russia. Vitaly Valentinovich is also a prominent fighter against illegal migration and illegal accounts on the Internet containing false information.

At the same time, not all of Milonov’s bills are extravagant in nature - his proposal to ban in Russia the production, sale and import of products containing more than 2% trans-fatty acids, as well as the introduction of serious fines for utility companies that do not comply with the rules for providing services to the population, are positively perceived by the legislative assembly of St. -Petersburg.

Political activities of Vitaly Milonov

The initiatives of the United Russia deputy, along with positive reviews from colleagues, also provoked sharply negative comments and criticism from the people and public figures.

Milonov was the initiator of a law banning hookah smoking, which was allegedly comparable to drug use. He also argued that studying Charles Darwin's theories was harmful. Among the well-known initiatives of the parliamentarian are a bill recognized as “crazy” proposing to grant civil rights to a human embryo, a demand to ban the MTV Russia channel (for alleged immorality), and the Yuventa medical center, which deals with the prevention of sexual behavior disorders in adolescents, accusing it of popularizing homosexuality.

He had similar complaints about Britten’s opera based on Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, which he called for to be inspected for the presence of scenes promoting non-traditional relationships, drugs, and pedophilia.

Milonov, who received the nickname “Sexton Vitalik” in the city parliament, spoke out against the candidacy of Alexander Sokurov for awarding him the title of Honorary Citizen because of the “blasphemous” film he created, in the politician’s opinion, “Fust,” for which the outstanding director was awarded the Palme d’Or branches" of the Cannes Film Festival.

The latest proposals from a member of the St. Petersburg Legislative Assembly - on the need to introduce certificates for the right to ride bicycles, administrative penalties for walking with a naked torso or in beachwear, a ban on the television series "Game of Thrones" - continued the main vector of the politician's activity, becoming the subject of controversy and discussion in society .

In particular, Milonov’s idea of ​​labeling the works of Western authors in order to protect Russians from alien ideology was approved by the Russian Orthodox Church, but was ridiculed and rejected in the creative community.

At the end of June 2015, more than eight hundred Russians signed the corresponding petition to Kirill, Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus', on the Internet.

In one of the interviews, the flamboyant deputy admitted that he was depressed by the understanding that Russia is being destroyed not by the West or the United States, but by the “gray, stupid mass” that welcomes Putin, but, at the same time, nullifies any good initiatives.
