Yulia Navalnaya has called on Russians to support any party other than United Russia in the State Duma election. The widow of Alexei Navalny and head of his Anti-Corruption Foundation made the appeal in a video address. Her message came after Russia’s Supreme Court removed Yabloko from the parliamentary race, despite her earlier urging that voters back the party.
Russia’s Supreme Court on Aug. 10 barred the country’s only anti-war party from contesting parliamentary elections scheduled for September. The liberal Yabloko party had been cleared to participate and received a place on the ballot just five days earlier. The ruling abruptly ended its brief electoral opening and curtailed the party’s ability to campaign in the vote. It represents a legal setback for Russia’s anti-war opposition ahead of the parliamentary election.
Russia’s highest court has barred Yabloko from taking part in the parliamentary elections scheduled for September. The party is described as Russia’s only anti-war political force. The request to exclude Yabloko was brought by Rodina, a nationalist party aligned with the Kremlin. The ruling prevents Yabloko from appearing on the ballot in the upcoming vote.
Russia’s Supreme Court found no evidence that Yabloko’s propaganda materials called for extremism. A court spokesperson said arguments submitted by the Rodina party against the materials should be examined in separate proceedings. The ruling concerns a dispute involving Yabloko’s participation in parliamentary elections.
Russia has barred the only party opposing the war in Ukraine from taking part in a parliamentary vote. Rodina, a pro-Kremlin nationalist party, accused Yabloko of receiving campaign support that had not been declared. The dispute places Yabloko’s participation at the centre of the vote. Rodina’s allegation is presented as the stated basis for the move.
Russia’s Supreme Court has upheld a petition brought by the Rodina party against Yabloko. The ruling removes Yabloko’s eligibility to take part in the upcoming elections for the lower house of parliament. Those elections are for seats in the State Duma. The court’s decision therefore disqualifies the party from the parliamentary contest.
Russia’s Supreme Court has ordered opposition party Yabloko removed from the ballot for the State Duma election. Yabloko says it will appeal, so the ruling is not yet legally effective. Rodina brought the lawsuit last Friday, alleging a range of violations, including copyright infringement, illegal campaigning, and support for extremism. Judge Vyacheslav Kirillov heard the case. He declared the human rights group International Memorial “extremist” this spring.
A Moscow court has ruled that Russia’s only liberal, anti-war party cannot take part in next month’s parliamentary elections. The decision prevents the party from standing in the upcoming vote. It is described as Russia’s sole liberal and anti-war political party. The ruling comes ahead of the scheduled parliamentary election.
Yabloko will not be removed from the ballot before its appeal is considered. The party has five days to challenge the Supreme Court’s decision. Its immediate electoral status therefore remains unchanged while the appeal process proceeds.
The decision to disqualify the Yabloko party from the parliamentary race is not yet in force. The party has five days to challenge the court’s ruling. Its electoral status therefore remains subject to the appeal period.
Russia’s Supreme Court has disqualified the Yabloko party from taking part in State Duma elections. The court fully upheld a claim brought by the Rodina party. The ruling removes Yabloko from the election contest. No further details were provided.
Russia’s Supreme Court has removed the Yabloko party from the State Duma ballot. The decision granted a lawsuit filed by the Rodina party. Before the ruling, Yabloko chairman Nikolai Rybakov urged the court in his closing argument to reject Rodina’s case in full. He said the party had attracted young volunteers because they did not want to be killed in Ukraine.
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.
Russia’s Supreme Court has ruled that the Yabloko party cannot take part in the upcoming contest for the State Duma, the lower chamber of parliament. Judge Vyacheslav Kirillov granted a lawsuit brought by lawyers representing the Rodina party. The decision removes the country’s only antiwar party from the parliamentary race. Yabloko’s exclusion follows the court’s acceptance of Rodina’s legal challenge.
Russia’s Supreme Court is hearing a lawsuit from the Rodina party seeking to remove Yabloko from the State Duma election ballot. Yabloko is described as the only listed party calling for an immediate truce with Ukraine. Rodina also alleges breaches of campaign and candidate-nomination rules, as well as “extremism” in Yabloko’s public stance. Its copyright complaints reportedly concern disputed campaign materials, including ChatGPT-generated images and photographs from 1945.
Russia’s Supreme Court has begun hearing a lawsuit that seeks to remove the anti-war Yabloko party from the State Duma ballot. Hundreds of people gathered outside the court in Moscow and lined up to show their support for the party.
