History of creation

In the scientific circulation the term "party of new type" was entered into by Vladmir Lenin.[ citation needed ] In 2015, the General Director of the Center for Political Thought and Ideology, Stepan Sulakshin, announced the idea of creating PNT as opposition to Vladimir Putin's governance. [1] The following year, he made a declaration of intent to create a "party of new type." Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev also used the phrase, in reference to the United Russia party: "The past election campaign marked the beginning of the most important stage for our Party - the formation of a new type of party." It is likely that the formulation was included in the speech of the prime minister by the efforts of the speechwriters. [2]

The founding congress of PNT was held on June 17, 2017. At the congress it was decided to create a party as a public association without registration. [3] [4]

Ideology

Sulakshin S. refused to call the party's agenda left-patriotic, explaining that it "has a universal program aimed at all citizens." PNT stands on the balanced political platform of a "solidary society" in which revolutions and expropriations will never again occur, but will be based on "work, justice and freedom." [5]
