Communists of Russia (KR) is a communist party in Russia. It was founded in May 2009 as a public non-commercial organisation and was officially registered as a political party in April 2012. The party's ideology is Marxism-Leninism.
The KR has regional organisations in 69 regions and operates in 70 regions of Russia. The KR has officially affiliation with the two inter-regional public associations: "The Communists of St. Petersburg and Leningrad Region" and "The Communists of the Far East".
The party's main rival on the left wing of Russia's political spectrum is the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, which sees itself as the successor to the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. KR considers its as the alternative to the CPRF, which it believes is no longer a Marxist party and will not be able to return to power as long as Gennady Zyuganov is First Secretary.
At the Russian regional elections in 2012 the party got 2 to 3.5 percent of the vote and 2 seats.
