The All-Russian Political Party "Rodina" (Russian: Всероссийская политическая партия «Родина», romanizedVserossiyskaya politicheskaya partiya "Rodina") is a nationalist[1] political party in Russia. It was a coalition of thirty nationalist groups[10] that was established by Dmitry Rogozin,[10] Sergey Glazyev,[10] Sergey Baburin,[10] Viktor Gerashchenko, Georgy Shpak, Valentin Varennikov and others in August 2003. The party's ideology combines "patriotism, nationalism, and a greater role for the government in the economy",[10] and is described as pro-Kremlin.[11] Its headquarters is located in Moscow.

In the 2003 legislative elections, Rodina won 9.02% of the vote and ended up with 37 of the 450 seats in the State Duma. In the 2016 elections, it won 1.51% of the vote and ended up with one seat. In the 2021 elections, it won 0.80% of the vote and ended up with one seat. The party supports President Vladimir Putin.[12]
