Irina Volynets (Russian: Ирина Владимировна Волынец; born August 2, 1978, in the city of Kazan, Tatar ASSR, in the Soviet Union) is a Russian journalist, pro-government campaigner against human rights and for repressive legislation,[2] and leader of the National Parents Committee social movement. In 2017, she became a candidate in the 2018 Russian presidential election, but withdrew her candidacy in favor of Vladimir Putin.[3]
In 2016, Volynets spoke out in support of the proposal to ban abortion in Russia.[4] In the same year, she advocated for the decriminalization of beatings in families.[5] She claimed that mothers are to blame for today's men not being masculine enough and proposed the introduction of "chastity lessons" for girls in schools.[6] Volynets disagrees with the idea that full gender equality has been achieved in Russia[7] and opposes the abolition of the Unified State Exam in Russia. She is also an advocate for the creation of the Ministry of Family and Children's Affairs.[8][9] In 2024 she promised to campaign against the law protecting victims of domestic violence, arguing that the number of domestic murders in Russia is not excessive ("no more than 1,000 a year") and that in most cases female victims are responsible for "driving the man to it".[10]
In 2020, Volynets was elected as a member to the Civic Chamber of the Russian Federation.[11] She was also appointed Commissioner for the Rights of the Child in the Republic of Tatarstan.[12]
