On 18 September 2016, he was elected as a deputy of the 7th State Duma as a member of the Communist Party.
He is one of the 324 members of the State Duma that the United States Department of the Treasury sanctioned on 24 March 2022 in response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[4]
He was invited to speak within Georgia's parliament through the Interparliamentary Assembly on Orthodoxy.[5] This speech was given in Russian from the Speaker's chair and was seen as an attack on Georgian sovereignty. It resulted in the 2019 Georgia protests.[6] [7]
