You can campaign for improved relations with the west, propose bills, and in general play politics without having to run

Oh God, how do I campaign, like make some banners and speeches? Or just propose some reforms in the Duma that could bring Russia closer to the west

Well, either work, many politicians around the world have rallies not just for elections, but to push a certain policy

He's there.

You could use a rally to launch a new policy, or make a fluff piece for your candidate. Interviewing and talking to ordinary people, just some sort of promotion for the name recognition.

I'll take Kyrlyakov as head of the moderate wing then.

Twitter is somewhat censored and not as popular in Russia, VK is your best bet for social media

Alright, I don't know what is VK so I'll research and edit

Also, it is illegal to hold partisan political rallies in the Red Square, you’ll need to change the venue

Is it realistic for me to run?

To be clear my character is not running for President, that's just what I had the article in my post say/speculate.

You don't need to specify a location, a lot of political speeches/rallies are held in plain old buildings that they have simply hired out.

Is near Alexander's the first statue a good place?

Alexander I wasn't the most liberal ruler so might not be the best choice. I did a search and see that IRL Yabloko did a rally on the street Academician Sakharov Prospekt in 2018. Sakharov was a human rights and disarmament advocate within the Soviet Union so it's a location named after someone like that which would be a good place to have a rally.
