Summary
Russia’s United Russia party is rolling out a bold slate for September’s parliamentary election, featuring war veterans and media figures like injured Ukraine war hero Vladislav Golovin and TV correspondent Yevgeny Poddubny alongside heavyweights Sergei Lavrov and Sergei Sobyanin — a clear nod to Putin’s push for combat veterans to lead Russia’s new political elite. With a proven electoral track record and strong Kremlin backing, the party is betting on a blend of battlefield grit, media savvy, and top-tier officials to dominate the ballot, even as not all names make it to the Duma.
