The Patriots of Russia is a political party in Russia that was established in 2005.

The party advocates for the protection…   of Russian cultural and historical heritage, the promotion of national interests, and the strengthening of Russia's sovereignty and independence. It emphasizes the importance of social justice, supporting measures that would improve the welfare of the Russian people, particularly those in the lower and middle-income brackets.<br /><br />The party's values are deeply rooted in the idea of patriotism, not just in terms of national pride but also in the context of defending the country's interests on the global stage. It calls for a strong and assertive foreign policy to protect Russia's position in the world. Domestically, the Patriots of Russia promote the idea of a strong, centralized government that can ensure stability, security, and the well-being of its citizens. They often advocate for policies that aim to reduce poverty, support families, improve healthcare and education, and ensure the equitable distribution of wealth.<br /><br />Economically, the party supports the idea of a mixed economy where both the state and private enterprises play significant roles. It argues for strategic sectors of the economy, particularly natural resources, to be under state control or oversight, believing that this is crucial for national security and the overall prosperity of the country.<br /><br />Despite its nationalistic and patriotic rhetoric, the Patriots of Russia party has struggled to gain significant traction in the highly competitive and tightly controlled political landscape of Russia, where the ruling party, United Russia, dominates. Nonetheless, the Patriots of Russia continues to participate in elections and seeks to influence the political discourse by advocating for policies that resonate with its vision of a strong, prosperous, and just Russia.Les mer
