Sergey Sergeyevich Mitrokhin (Russian: Серге́й Серге́евич Митро́хин; born 20 May 1963) is a Russian politician.

He is a former leader of the liberal Yabloko party. He was a member of the State Duma (1994–2003) and Moscow City Duma (2005–2009, 2019–). Mitrokhin studied at the Moscow State Pedagogical University and got his PhD in political science.

In 2014, he opposed the Kremlin's policy and the war against Ukraine.

Political career

Chairman of Yabloko (2008-2015)

On 21-22 June 2008, at the 15th Congress of Yabloko, Sergei Mitrokhin was elected chairman of the party; his candidacy was supported by the former chairman Grigory Yavlinsky. 75 out of 127 delegates (60%) voted for Mitrokhin's candidacy. Together with Grigory Yavlinsky, Alexei Yablokov, Sergei Ivanenko, and Igor Artemyev, he joined the party's political committee.

On 11 June 2009, Mitrokhin handed over the anti-crisis plan developed by Yabloko to President Dmitry Medvedev.

In the Moscow City Duma elections in July 2009, Mitrokhin headed the Yabloko list. Yabloko gained 4.7%, thus failing to cross the electoral threshold. Only United Russia (66.2%, 32 seats) and the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (13.3% of the vote, 3 seats) entered the Moscow Duma. During the vote-counting period, Mitrokhin challenged the voting results at his polling station and achieved a vote recount; the local election commission head was suspended from work. According to the official protocol, at polling station No. 192 in the Khamovniki District, no vote was cast for Yabloko; however, Mitrokhin and his family voted for their party there. He turned to the Investigative Committee of the Russian Prosecutor's Office. However, the Investigative Committee did not initiate a criminal case for falsification of voting results since it did not see "direct intent aimed at distorting the results."

In August 2009, Mitrokhin opposed the site plan of Moscow, arguing that "the site plan was written in the interests of the commercial construction oligarchy, not Muscovites."

On 22 January 2010, at a meeting of the State Council of the Russian Federation, he accused United Russia of monopolizing the party system.

On 3 March 2010, Mitrokhin was detained at the "Churov, shave your beard!" rally.

In the fall of 2011, during the elections to the State Duma of the sixth convocation, Mitrokhin entered the Yabloko list as number two (Grigory Yavlinsky was number one). According to the results of the parliamentary elections held on 4 December 2011, Yabloko received 3.4% of the votes. Thus, the party did not overcome the 5% electoral threshold required to receive mandates, but it did overcome the 3% required to qualify for state funding.

On 16 June 2012, Mitrokhin was re-elected chairman of the Yabloko party. Party founder Grigory Yavlinsky lobbied for Mitrokhin's candidacy. 105 delegates voted for Mitrokhin; 21 against.

On 14 January 2013, Mitrokhin approved the exit of 13 members of the St. Petersburg branch from the party, including three deputies of the Legislative Assembly: Olga Galkina, Maxim Reznik, and Vyacheslav Notyag.

In June 2013, Mitrokhin was nominated by Yabloko as a candidate for the Moscow mayoral elections, which took place on 8 September, and was registered by the Moscow City Election Commission on 17 July. On 8 September 2013, on the single voting day, Mitrokhin took fourth place, gaining 3.5% of the votes.
