Commenting on Yabloko's legal attempt to annul the results of last December's parliamentary elections, the party's leader Grigory Yavlinsky said he could not say anything about its prospects. "According to the data we have obtained, there were very serious and significant violations in the vote-counting and we think that this case will be taken seriously," he said.
A representative of another liberal party - Irina Khakamada of the Union of Right-Wing Forces - was positive about Yabloko's legal move. "This is a positive step and it does not matter what the result will be," she said. "When the opposition is outside the system of power, every step in the direction of resistance is very important. We should stop criticizing each other and unite in this resistance. Nothing will make us flee the country and we will fight for freedom," the liberal leader said.// Interfax
