In kanji, Khakamada's family name is 袴田; in katakana, her name is イリーナ・ハカマダ.[6]
Khakamada graduated from the Department of Economy of the
Duma career
Khakamada was an elected Duma representative from 1993 to 2003. She is regarded as a democratic politician who is in a moderate opposition to the Russian government. She is known for criticizing the governmental actions during Moscow theater hostage crisis where she was involved as one of the negotiators. Khakamada stated that the hostage takers were not going to use their bombs to kill the people and destroy the building.[8]
Khakamada was a member of the coordinating council of the
2004 presidential campaign
Khakamada was one of the leaders of the Union of Rightist Forces when she decided to run in the 2004 Russian presidential election. She was not supported by her party, which had decided that they would not nominate a candidate.[10] She announced her candidacy in December 2003.[11]
Khakamada kicked off her campaign by delivering a speech which placed the blame for the Moscow theater hostage crisis at Putin's feet.[12][11] She entered the election with better name recognition than most of the other candidates challenging Putin.[10] Her candidacy was officially registered on 8 February.[10] Khakamada was only the second woman to be a registered candidate in a Russian presidential election, after only Ella Pamfilova in 2000.[13]
Khakamada claimed her motivation for running was her desire to see a liberal opposition candidate.[12] She would ultimately be the only liberal opposition candidate to run.[12]
In an article published in Novaya Gazeta, Yulia Latynina alleged that Khakamada only entered the election to feign a role of a democratic opponent to provide more legitimacy to the election of Vladimir Putin. Khakamada denied such allegations.[14][15]
Khakamada's campaign slogan was “Irina Khakamada: Our Voice”.[12] Her campaign received funding from Boris Nevzlin, a former Yukos chief who was being targeted for international investigation by Russian authorities and was residing in Israel during the campaign.[12] She was outspoken about unfair conditions of the election, particularly about its media coverage.[12] Early into the campaign, analysts predicted that she might be able to receive more than 10% of the vote.[12] Khakamada received 3.9% of votes.[16][17] While she declared that she found her performance in the election to have been, "satisfactory", she alleged that there had been many irregularities with the vote.[18]

On 11 June 2006
Former FSS officer Alexander Litvinenko said he had learned from Anna Politkovskaya that Putin asked Khakamada to pass a threat to Politkovskaya.[22] Khakamada denied her involvement in passing any specific threats, and said that she warned Politkovskaya only in general terms more than a year earlier, and that Politkovskaya blamed her and Mikhail Kasyanov for becoming Kremlin's puppets.[23] Politkovskaya and Litvinenko were murdered in October and November 2006.
2008, Khakamada left the party of her own accord, explaining the cessation of her political activities.[24]
