On September 4, in Krasnodar, one of the supporters of the "Progress Party" held a solo picket opposite the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) of the Krasnodar Territory, demanding to register the regional branch of the party.

Let us remind you that in June, the above MoJ of the Krasnodar Territory refused to register the Krasnodar regional branch of the "Progress Party", which positions itself as a party of supporters of the well-known oppositional blogger Alexei Navalny.

The regional branch of the above party reports that after the registration refusal, the branch was formally dissolved and established anew.

"We've submitted a new package of registration document to the MoJ, but they are protracting again," a party activist told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.

He said the documents were submitted in early August; party supporters intend to go on picketing the MoJ in Krasnodar until the officials register the branch.
