Description: (Politician)
Inessa Fyodorovna Armand was a prominent French-Russian communist politician and feminist who played a crucial role in the pre-Revolution Russian communist movement. She supported Lenin and the Bolsheviks, aiding them in gaining power and influence during the early days of the communist era. By 1919, Armand had emerged as a powerful figure in Moscow, becoming one of the most influential women in the city. While she faced periods of obscurity, her importance in Russian history was acknowledged with the partial opening of Soviet archives in the 1990s.
