- Ilya Ponomarev was a member of the Russian Parliament, or State Duma, from 2007-2016.
- In 2014, he was the only member of the Russian Parliament to vote against the annexation of Crimea.
- However, this was not the first time he survived after opposing Putin.
- His vote against the annexation of Crimea did, however, lead to him being forced into exile from his own country while he was a sitting member of Parliament.
- At the time of the annexation of Crimea, Ponomarev predicted it would lead to a full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia.
- He also vowed at the time that if Russia did invade Ukraine, he would fight on the side of Ukraine. And that's what he is doing today.
