# More than 111-million Russians are voting from today for the next three days in a parliamentary election, the first since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. President Vladimir Putin has framed the vote as a test of support for the war, with the United Russia party expected to retain its dominance. The election comes amid warnings from Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk that Russia may be planning attacks on NATO countries, potentially disguising them as accidents. Most anti-war candidates have been excluded from the ballot.
