Russia’s Supreme Court removed Yabloko from the State Duma ballot on August 10, ruling for the far-right populist Rodina party in a lawsuit alleging violations of copyright, campaign rules, and foreign-funding restrictions. Yabloko called the claims unfounded and politically motivated. The party had recently polled at 6 percent, while prominent members faced measures barring them from office.
