In 2010, Russia did not hold national elections, but significant regional elections occurred, including gubernatorial races and local legislative elections. These elections were marked by widespread allegations of fraud and manipulation, with opposition parties often facing significant barriers to participation. The ruling United Russia party, led by then-Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, maintained a dominant position, further consolidating power. This period also saw increased public discontent and protests against the government, foreshadowing the larger protests that would erupt in 2011 and 2012.
