> Russia’s Supreme Court on Monday blocked Yabloko, described as the country’s only anti-war party, from taking part in the parliamentary elections scheduled for September. The ruling removes the party from the upcoming contest. Yabloko will therefore be unable to field candidates in those elections. The decision concerns the party’s eligibility to participate in the parliamentary vote.
