The re-election took place at the first organizational plenum of the Central Committee following the 19th CPRF Congress. "On Saturday, July 5, Gennady Zyuganov was unanimously elected chairman of the CPRF Central Committee," the party said in a statement posted on its official Telegram channel.

In addition to Zyuganov's reappointment, Ivan Melnikov, first deputy speaker of the State Duma, and Yuri Afonin, first deputy chairman of the Duma Committee on Security and Anti-Corruption, were also reappointed as first deputy chairmen of the party's central committee.
