Europe2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported4m ago
Russian citizens began three days of voting on Friday in a parliamentary election, the first to take place since the country launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Polls opened in the Far East as part of a multi-day process intended to determine the composition of the legislature.
The election is widely expected to maintain the political dominance of the Kremlin and its main party, United Russia. With virtually no opposition present, the process is positioned to solidify the current government's control amid the ongoing conflict.
