"Party of crooks and thieves" (Russian: Партия жуликов и воров – Partiya zhulikov i vorov, abbr. Russian: ПЖиВ – PZhiV[1]) is an expression widely circulating among opposition in Russia which is used to refer to the ruling United Russia party, led by Vladimir Putin. It was coined by blogger and anti-corruption activist Alexei Navalny in February 2011.[2][3]
