Movement ROS was formed on October 1991 which makes it one of the oldest nationalist movements in Russia. Its permanent leader is Sergey Baburin.

**Electoral results**

As an independent party, the ROS has never succeeded. Members of ROS were elected to parliament as part of various blocs, primarily from Rodina. Viktor Alksnis, a member of the party elected to the Duma in 1999, became one of the most prominent Russian nationalists with deputy status. In 2003 Baburin was elected deputy of the State Duma on the federal list of Rodina party. In 2006 Baburin took part in the “Russian March” in Moscow. Among the leaders of ROS were Ivan Mironov, organizer of the Russian Marches, and Russian mixed martial arts fighter Roman Zentsov, who has a tattoo with swastikas.

The party was not allowed to participate in the 2021 parliamentary elections because it could not present 200,000 signatures of its supporters.

**Party ideology**

ROS is a typical for post soviet world red-brown party which ideology monstrously combines nostalgia for the Soviet empire and Black Hundreds nationalism. ROS is officialy a party with an imperial-statist ideology, but there are supporters of an ethnic version of nationalism both among the rank-and-file members and in the leadership. All of the party’s proposals are based on the need to respect traditions and unite on the basis of Orthodoxy (at the same time they refer to the need for “inter-confessional understanding”). The word “Orthodoxy” and its adjectives appear on almost every page of the program. The program ends with the call “Glory to Russia! – one of the main slogans of the nationalist movement.

ROS is opposed to communist party of Russia (CPRF) and allied to Rodina.
