The Russian Party of Communists or Revolutionary Party of Communists (RPC; Russian: Российская/Революционная партия коммунистов; РПК; Rossiyskaya/Revolyutsionnaya partiya kommunistov, RPK) was a Russian communist party that existed from 1991 to 2001. In 2001, as a result of a merger with the RCWP, it became part of the united RCWP-RPC.
History[edit]
The Russian Party of Communists was created on December 14, 1991, on the basis of the Marxist platform in the CPSU. The party's organ was the newspaper "Mysl" (since 2001 - the publication of the RCWP-RPC).
The Russian Party of Communists was registered with the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation on March 19, 1992.
In July 1993, the RPC joined the National Salvation Front (FNS), and the head of the party, Anatoly Kryuchkov, entered the Political Council of the FNS. The party took part in an attempt to change the government in Moscow[1] and the Events near the White House.
In 1999, a formal separation of the Moscow and Leningrad RPC organizations took place. The Russian Party of Communists did not pass re-registration before July 1, 1999 and, in accordance with the requirements of the Federal Law "On Public Associations", lost the status of an All-Russian organization. By the decision of the Leningrad organization of the RPC, the documents for registration of the Regional Party of Communists, which was registered on July 6, 1999, were submitted to the Justice Department of Saint Petersburg. The Regional Party of Communists broke away from the Russian Party of Communists and continued to exist as an independent political organization.
In the late 1990s, the Russian Party of Communists changed its name to the Revolutionary Party of Communists.
On October 27, 2001, at the unification congress, as a result of the merger of the Russian Communist Workers Party (established on November 23, 1991) and the Revolutionary Party of Communists, a united Russian Communist Workers' Party – Revolutionary Party of Communists was created; as an independent organization, the PKK ceased to exist.
Leaders[edit]
The main leader of the RPC was Anatoly Viktorovich Kryuchkov (1944-2005).[2] From December 15, 1991, he served as Deputy Chairman of the Political Council of the RPC Central Executive Committee. At that moment, he resigned from the position of chairman, which remained vacant. On May 15, 1992, Kryuchkov was elected chairman of the Political Council of the CEC, holding this position until the merger with the RCWP on October 28, 2001. In the united organization, he served as secretary of the Central Committee of the RCWP-RPC.
The head of the seceded Leningrad organization of the RPC, the Regional Party of Communists, is Vladimir Matveyevich Soloveichik.
