One of the candidates of the Maoist party tried to become a self-nominated candidate for the City Duma of Chelyabinsk. But as she herself stated:
"The entire opposition was not allowed to participate in the elections. The elections will be held without Maoists, without left-front communists and without petty-bourgeois democracy."
This was reported today, August 12, by the TG-channel "Chinese Threat".
And yes, there is a Russian Maoist Party in the country, the channel reports. Although, of course, the reputation of Maoism in Russia is still quite tarnished by the efforts of Soviet propaganda, so there are not many chances for Maoists in the elections in Russia yet. The Party of Russian Xi Jinping would have a better chance.
