Russian politician Vladimir Volfovich Zhirinovsky served as the head of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia and was a member of the Russian parliament. A “showman of Russian politics, merging populist and nationalist rhetoric, anti-Western venom, and a boisterous, aggressive attitude” is how he has been described by critics.
Yuri Zhirinovsky was born in the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic’s capital city of Almaty, which is now Kazakhstan. A native of Kostopil in western Ukraine, Volf Isaakovich Eidelshtein’s father was a Ukrainian Jew.
Russian-Mordovian-born Alexandra Pavlovna was his mother. It is said that Zhirinovsky’s father fled to Israel in 1949 and was tragically killed by a passing bus in Tel Aviv, Israel, in 1983.
