## Key points

- Russia listed two unregistered opposition parties as “foreign agents”.
- Ilya Yashin founded Mirnaya Rossiya in exile.
- Rassvet was founded by former presidential hopeful Yekaterina Duntsova.

## Summary

Russia’s Justice Ministry has added two unregistered opposition parties, Mirnaya Rossiya and Rassvet, to its “foreign agents” register. The move brings state scrutiny to groups opposed to the Kremlin and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Politician Ilya Yashin founded Mirnaya Rossiya while in exile, while journalist Yekaterina Duntsova founded Rassvet in Tver after previously seeking to run for president. The ministry alleged that those listed spread false information about government policies and spoke out against the invasion; the article gives no further details about the other additions mentioned.
