^ A: Yabloko is considered a left-wing party by some sources;[12] Boris Nemtsov also described it as "left-wing".[13] Yabloko has also been characterized as centrist on an international political spectrum because of its positioning as the "non-system opposition" left-liberal party supporting liberal democracy.[14][15] | |
