Russian opposition in exile unites to call for vote against Putin and the war

dnoticias.pt14 September 2026 at 21:37

Russian opposition in exile has united to call for a vote "against Putin and the war" in Ukraine, one week before Russian legislative elections, in which the Kremlin's party, United Russia, seeks to renew its constitutional majority.

The appeal was launched by Yulia Navalnaya, widow of the late opposition leader Alexey Navalny, in a video published on YouTube. Navalnaya urged Russians not to vote for United Russia, referring to the party as "thieves and murderers."

In the video, Navalnaya stated that voting against the Kremlin's party means voting against Russian President Vladimir Putin and against the war in Ukraine.

The opposition leader also announced an agreement with other exiled opposition groups, although the article does not reveal further details about the terms of that agreement.

Why this matters

Russian readers face legislative elections in which the Kremlin's party seeks to maintain its constitutional majority, and the exiled opposition attempts to mobilize Russians inside and outside the country to vote against the ruling party as a protest against the war in Ukraine. This mobilization represents the first concerted action of the dispersed opposition since Navalny's death.
