A Just World (Russia)

A Just World (Russian: Справедливый мир, romanized: Spravedlivyy mir, or A Just Peace) is a Russian left-wing opposition political coalition established in 2024.

History

A Just World coalition was established in anticipation of the 2024 Russian presidential election. The coalition included people and organizations holding anti-war, democratic, socialist and communist views. One of the co-founders of the coalition, left-wing blogger and founder of the Union of Marxists Andrey Rudoy, believes that “the coalition should have appeared two years ago, but the elections became a kind of catalyst that somewhat accelerated all processes. A left-wing non-systemic anti-war camp has already taken shape with a more or less common understanding of the transition program and tactics."

The coalition called for people to come to the polls on the last day, March 17, at 12:00 and spoil their ballot. A Just World coalition believes that the “Noon Against Putin” action could become a starting point for uniting the left and for consolidating anti-war and democratic-minded citizens around them.

Ideology

According to the coalition, despite different opinions, it is ready to “tactically cooperate” with the liberal opposition.

The coalition advocates for the right of nations to self-determination, and for fair referendums on the status of Crimea and the annexed regions of Ukraine, after their demilitarization.
