Russia’s ruling United Russia party retains a decisive majority in the national parliament after elections, with near-complete results reported. The anti-war Yabloko party appears to win only a small presence, gaining a foothold in one regional parliament rather than at the national level.
The outlets describe the vote as a three-day election to the State Duma. Both sources frame the outcome as maintaining President Vladimir Putin’s political grip through United Russia’s continued dominance, while suggesting Yabloko’s gains are limited to regional representation. One source also reports that United Russia secures a record 355 parliamentary seats, reinforcing the scale of its national support. The two reports largely align on the central picture: United Russia’s strong national majority and Yabloko’s marginal breakthrough confined to a regional legislature.
