Victor Vorobyov (Russian: Ви́ктор Ви́кторович Воробьёв; born 19 June 1989) is a Russian lawyer, politician, and human rights defender, who is the head of parliamentary opposition at the Komi Republic State Council since 2021.[1][2] He was born in Syktyvkar, Komi Republic.
In 2022, after Vorobyov's public statement against the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Russian Ministry of Justice has included him on the "foreign agents" list. Thus Vorobyov became the first MP to be included on that list.[3]
