Every Friday, the Russian Ministry of Justice adds new names to its dreaded Register of Foreign Agents, which identifies people and organizations who have allegedly received foreign support while engaging in political activities. This past week, the Libertarian Party of Russia (LPR) and 24 of its members were added to the list.
The registry lists the LPR as an unincorporated public association that disseminated materials of other "foreign agents" and "unreliable information" about the electoral system and policies of the Russian government. Among other allegations, the LPR has been accused of opposing the war in Ukraine and calling for violations of Russia's territorial integrity, according to Russian news agency Interfax.
