Putin is the leader of the United Russia, but he is not its member. "The main parliamentary party, the ruling United Russia headed by Vladimir Putin (he is not a member of the party, yet he is its leader), plans to go into the next elections with a renewed platform. Mr Putin announced the creation of a pre-election People’s Front to allow non-party candidates (up to 25pc) to win election on the United Russia ticket".[1] Ybelov (talk) 20:43, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
