The Party of Business (Russian: Партия дела, romanizedPartiya dela, aka "Party of the Cause") is a political party in Russia whose main goal is to promote "economic expediency". The party was founded on October 14, 2010, and officially registered on December 14, 2012. The party has described itself as "neither a right-wing nor a left-wing party" and "open to all ideas that would help us improve the social and economic situation in our country." It opposed and spoke out against the decline of Russian agriculture, and called for its revival and expansion. It also supported a reduction of the price of Russian gas and oil,[1] and an income tax that increases based upon the average salary of Russian citizens.[2] The party’s activities were suspended by Russia’s Supreme Court in April 2024 after violations were found in the party’s charter.[3] On 18 October 2024, Russia’s Ministry of Justice requested to dissolve the party; this request will be considered in November 2024.
