He is a significant figure in the political Olympus of Russia. Colleagues call him a prominent representative of the systemic opposition. Heading one of the leading factions in the domestic parliament, Sergei Mironov (Just Russia) is trying to provide real help to people when it comes to lawlessness and arbitrariness. Once he even put forward his own candidacy to run for the presidential election - his political ambitions were so great.
Today, Sergei Mironov (Just Russia) continues to actively fight for the Russian voter in order to realize the party objectives in practice. What was his path in his political career and what was remarkable in his biography? Let's consider these questions in more detail.
Years of childhood
The biography of Sergei Mironov ("Fair Russia"), undoubtedly, contains many interesting and noteworthy facts.
He was born on February 14, 1953 in the provincial town of Pushkin (Leningrad Region). The father of the future politician worked at a local military school, and his mother was a party registration instructor.
Young Sergei learned to read, write and read in Leningrad school No. 410. Having matured a bit, he gravitated more towards the humanities, but the exact disciplines were worse for him. As a child, Sergei Mironov ("Fair Russia") was a sociable and sociable child. During this period of his life, he decided on the choice of profession, saying to everyone that he wants to become a geologist. The boy developed an interest in this field of activity due to the fact that at his leisure he liked to collect beautiful stones and some copies were sent to them even to the Mining Institute. Sergei Mironov (A Just Russia) was proud when he found out that the stones he had sent were part of a particular collection of the institute.
Years of study after school
Having received a certificate of maturity, the young man successfully passes exams at the Industrial College, having previously selected the faculty of Geophysical Methods of Search and Exploration of Minerals.
However, after studying for several months, he doubted the correctness of his decision and temporarily left his studies. A year later, Mironov Sergei Mikhailovich still returned to the college he had left. Soon after, the young man sets off on an expedition to the Kola Peninsula.
Service in the sun
As a sophomore, Sergei Mironov (Just Russia), whose biography is interesting to many, makes a fundamental decision - to join the ranks of the USSR Armed Forces. Despite the fact that the students were supposed to have a deferment from the army, he voluntarily went to the draft board. The choice of troops was small: the construction battalion and radio. Having chosen the second option, the young man, by chance, ended up in the Airborne Forces. Yes, at one time the leader of the Just Russia party was a paratrooper. Mironov Sergey Mikhailovich later himself was surprised at how, with such a “mediocre” physique, he was assigned to the elite of the Soviet army. However, soon his physical data due to his service in the airborne forces became almost ideal. The current leader of Just Russia, Sergei Mironov, partially served in the Lithuanian town of Gaižiūnai. Then he was transferred to Kirovobad. Over the years of serving the Motherland, the future politician has proved himself exclusively on the positive side, implicitly following all orders and showing maximum diligence in his studies. From the army, he returned to the post of senior sergeant.
Studying again and starting work
Having given his debt to his homeland, Sergei Mironov (A Just Russia party) decided to continue his studies by entering the Leningrad Mining Institute, where he sent stones unique to the collection in his youth.
Comprehending the theoretical foundations of geological matters, he tried to apply the knowledge gained in practice. For this, Sergei Mikhailovich got a job at the Geophysics NGO, where he helped to search for uranium ore. After some time, he moved to the Rudgeofizika NGO, whose leadership entrusted him with the post of geophysicist engineer. Today’s leader of the Just Russia party, Sergei Mironov, at the beginning of his career, actively participated in a number of geological expeditions. He continued to work at the Rudgeofizika NGO until 1986.
Work in Mongolia
In 1986, Sergei Mikhailovich went to Mongolia, where for a long time he was engaged in the search for uranium ores. After some time, he took up the post of senior geophysicist, and he was transferred to Ulan Bator. Here he works until the moment of the coup d'etat.
The collapse of the Soviet system put an end to the career of a geologist. Officials who came to power significantly reduced funding for the industry and for months did not pay salaries to researchers. Seeing this state of affairs, the future chairman of the party "Fair Russia" Sergei Mironov immediately goes to his homeland. Upon arrival in Russia, a graduate of the Leningrad Mining Institute thinks hard about what he will do.
In the early 90's, he got a job at AOZT Russian Chamber of Commerce (Pushkin), where he was subsequently entrusted with the position of executive director. After some time, Mironov receives a paper from the Ministry of Finance of Russia, which states that he has the right to engage in brokerage activities with securities. This area of activity also interested him.

Plekhanov, 1980), and an economist (St. Petersburg State University, 1998), and a manager (Russian Academy of Public Administration under the President of the Russian Federation, 1997), and a lawyer (St. Petersburg State University, 1998), and a philosopher (St. Petersburg State University, 2004).

Party creation
In 2006, Sergei Mironov already had a significant status in domestic politics, and the Just Russia party that he established became further evidence of this. He himself led the created brainchild, which appeared largely in order to “United Russia” did not become the second Communist Party.
Soon, Sergei Mikhailovich was once again elected to the post of speaker of the Federation Council. Mironov, with the support of party members, took the initiative to extend the presidential term from 4 to 7 years, and a person could hold this high post three times in a row.
One way or another, but, supporting the internal political course of Vladimir Putin, the chairman of the Upper House of Parliament has repeatedly stated that he will act as an opponent of the United Russia faction.

He made friends with his first wife at school. But the real romance broke out a little later, when Sergei Mikhailovich came from the army. Having entered the institute, Mironov and his bride submitted documents to the registry office. The wedding celebration was modest. Elena gave birth to a son. However, family happiness came to an end after Sergei Mikhailovich periodically began to leave for Mongolia, where he struck up a relationship with a girl named Lyubov.
