The Russian Opposition Coordination Council (OCC or KSO; Russian: Координационный совет российской оппозиции, КСО – Koordinatsionnyy sovet rossiyskoy oppozitsii, KSO) was a council created in October 2012 by Russian protesters. Due to the fractured nature of the opposition, in June 2012 activists decided to create a 45-member Opposition Coordination Council (OCC), which would try to coordinate and direct dissent in Russia.
