"United Russia"
"United Russia" is the leading political party in Russia, founded in 2001. It is a key force on the country’s political stage, closely associated with the current leadership, particularly Vladimir Putin. The party positions itself as centrist, though in reality, it supports conservative and nationalist policies.
"United Russia" holds a majority in the Parliament - State Duma, allowing it to actively influence the passing of laws and political decisions.
RBC-Ukraine reported last year about the explosion of the regional headquarters of "United Russia" in the temporarily occupied Nova Kakhovka, Kherson region.
