As dozens of Russian citizens queued up to cast their votes in Russia’s State Duma elections, in Berlin on Sunday, pro-opposition activists protested outside the polling station in the Russian embassy.
A line formed in the afternoon as people wishing to vote waited outside the building in the heart of the German capital.
Protesters could be heard calling for people to vote against the ruling United Russia party and demanding the release of imprisoned opposition leader Alexei Navalny.
Another nearby opposition protest camp had signs demanding an end to ‘Putin’s terror’ and displays featuring candidates that were banned from running in the elections.
Russians went to the polls between September 17-19 to choose members of the State Duma, the lower house of parliament, as well as members of 39 regional parliaments and nine regional leaders. Voters will elect 450 State Duma deputies in total, via Russia’s mixed electoral system. Half will be selected from party lists in one federal constituency, with the other 225 elected in single-mandate constituencies under the first-past-the-post voting system.
