Do all but one of the PMs really have no party affiliation? And what is "Our Home Is Russia"?--Ian 06:33, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Is it correct that Yegor Gaidar was a Yabloko member in 1992? The Timeline of liberal parties in Russia says that Yabloko was established year later, in 1993. Andris 05:10, Sep 26, 2004 (UTC)
- I suspect you might be right. According to a page on the Yabloko website, Yabloko was indeed formed in preparation for the 1993 elections. The site from which I got the Yabloko claim is here - it's a good resource, but it's not totally without error. I would be inclined to remove the Yabloko affiliation from the table, unless there's some other information I'm missing. -- Vardion 05:40, 26 Sep 2004 (UTC)

- According to one source that I just found [1], Gaidar lead a different party, Russia's Choice, in 1993 elections. I cannot quite confirm whether the Russia's Choice was established when he was the prime minister or later, but that likely excludes a Yabloko affiliation. I will change his affiliation to none.

Anyone happen to know the duties of the PM? Cooldude7273 23:47, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
- I was wondering that as well. Especially with Putin poised to resume the post after his current term as president ends, it'd be good to know what the difference is. In most countries the president is the powerless head of state while the prime minister holds the real power as head of government. In Russia, the president clearly holds the most power so I'd like to know which responsibilities are delegated to each position. - Cg-realms (talk) 12:55, 11 December 2007 (EST)
[edit] Democratic Russia
Just a small note - "Democratic Russia" was technically not a party but a parliamentary fraction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kami888 (talk • contribs) 19:42, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Vladimir Putin
Medvedev hasn't nominated Putin for prime minister (as Medvedev hasn't taken office yet). Therefore, Putin isn't 'prime minister-designate'. GoodDay (talk) 21:27, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
