Political parties in Russia lists political parties in Russia. Russia is a one party dominant state with United Russia in power. Opposition parties are allowed, but are seen as ineffective and widely considered to have no real chance of gaining power. This is due both to the high popularity of Vladimir Putin's United Russia party and to the stringent controls placed on the media and opposition figures by the government.
