A nationalist party in Russia seeking a foothold in Parliament
A Russian court has granted Rodina’s lawsuit to remove Yabloko from the federal ballot amid allegations of foreign funding, copyright violations, and extremism. Supporters gathered outside the Supreme Court as the ruling was delivered; Yabloko plans to appeal. The party remains the only registered pro-peace liberal option amid a broader crackdown.

Russia's Supreme Court has upheld a suit by the pro‑Kremlin Rodina party and removed Yabloko's federal candidate list from the State Duma ballot. Yabloko, the country's last registered anti‑war party, has said it will appeal. Hundreds of mainly young supporters protested outside the courthouse after the ruling on Monday.
