Alexei Navalny's widow, the successor to his opposition legacy, called on Russians to vote for Yabloko in the upcoming elections.

Yulia Navalnaya, widow of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, has publicly called on Russian citizens to vote for the Yabloko party in the upcoming September legislative elections. Navalnaya identified the party as the only legal political formation currently opposing the invasion of Ukraine, positioning it as the primary vehicle for dissent within the existing electoral framework.

In response to this endorsement, the Yabloko party issued a statement distancing itself from the support of the Russian opposition in exile. The party clarified that it does not consider these external endorsements to be part of its official political platform or strategy.
