The Other Russia (Russian: Другая Россия), sometimes cited as Another Russia, is an umbrella coalition that gathers opponents of the Russian President Vladimir Putin. The coalition brings together representatives from a wide variety of political and human rights movements, as well as individual citizens.

The group includes both left and right-wing opposition leaders, including right-wing liberal people such as former world chess champion and United Civil Front leader Garry Kasparov and former Prime Minister of Russia and People Democratic Union leader Mikhail Kasyanov, as well as the National Bolshevik Party with its leader Eduard Limonov, far-left Vanguard of Red Youth, and far-left Workers' Party of Viktor Anpilov.[1][2]
