The Federation of Socialist Youth (FSM; ‹See Tfd›Russian: Федерация социалистической молодёжи; ФСМ; Federatsiya sotsialisticheskoy molodyozhi, FSM) was a socio-political regional organization of St. Petersburg, which brought together young supporters of left-wing ideas in a wide range from communism to social democracy. In December 2003, the legal entity was liquidated and the federation operated without registration.[2] On September 10, 2013, the last entry was published on the FSM official website www.socialist-spb.ru, and the site was closed.[3]
