Life.ru and Regnum: "Putin backed Volodin". Vedomosti: "United Russia nominated" him. Only Medvedev's word links the two

United Russia put Vyacheslav Volodin forward to stay on as Duma speaker. Two headlines credit Putin, one credits the party, and all of them rest on what Medvedev said. We hold no report from outside Russia's state and mainstream press.

What happened. On 24 September United Russia proposed Vyacheslav Volodin as speaker of the new State Duma. Its chairman, Dmitry Medvedev, announced this at a joint party meeting. Irina Yarovaya was proposed as first deputy speaker, Interfax and Regnum report.

Who picked him. Every account rests on what Medvedev said. Only Interfax prints his words in full: he said he had discussed it with Putin, who "believes Volodin can successfully continue".

Outlet Headline says Who is named as acting
Life.ru Medvedev: Putin backed Volodin Putin
Regnum Putin backed Volodin Putin, with no source in the headline
Vedomosti United Russia nominated Volodin the party
Interfax Volodin nominated no actor named

Who the enemy was. Medvedev said attempts to derail the vote had failed. The lede in Life.ru quotes his phrase "Kyiv clowns". Vedomosti's headline says "the West and Ukraine". TASS reports Russian envoy Dmitry Polyansky "noted" that Kyiv tried "terror against the civilian population". None of the three gives evidence or a reply from Kyiv.

The result. Life.ru says United Russia "may get" 349 seats, which is Medvedev's own preliminary estimate. RIA Novosti's headline quotes an unnamed political scientist who says a "record turnout" showed trust in the authorities.

What is not settled - The official seat count. No report we hold carries it. - Whether Putin said anything himself. We hold only Medvedev's account. - Kyiv's answer to the accusation. We hold no independent or exiled Russian report on the vote.

This story is about who will run Russia's lower house of parliament after this month's election, and how Russian officials are presenting that vote.

The institution. The State Duma is the lower chamber of Russia's Federal Assembly. It has 450 seats and is elected every five years. The last election before this one was in September 2021. The Duma passes the federal budget and the laws that govern the country, including those passed since the war began. The speaker sets its agenda.

The party and the people. United Russia was founded in 2001. It has held a Duma majority since the 2000s and supports Vladimir Putin. Putin has been president since 2000, except for 2008–2012, when he was prime minister. Dmitry Medvedev was president during those four years and then prime minister until 2020. He has chaired United Russia since 2012 and is deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council. Vyacheslav Volodin was formerly a senior Kremlin official and has been Duma speaker since 2016.

The war behind the vote. The war with Ukraine began in 2014, when Russia annexed Crimea and fighting broke out in the Donbas. The full-scale invasion began in February 2022. Since then, Russian officials have often accused Ukraine and Western governments of trying to destabilise Russia from within. Ukraine and its allies have rejected votes that Russia holds in occupied Ukrainian territory.

Who is missing. Russia's best-known opposition figures are in exile or in prison, or have died. Alexei Navalny died in an Arctic prison colony in February 2024. Many independent Russian outlets have been blocked or labelled foreign agents, and they now report from abroad.

What is at stake. Whoever leads the Duma leads the chamber that will pass Russia's wartime budgets for five years. Whether the choice is credited to the party or to the president shows where readers are told the decision was made.

Where it stands. These are party nominations. The new Duma still has to elect its speaker. None of the reports we hold carries an official final result.

What is being argued about

  • Whether Putin or United Russia is named as the one who chose Volodin
  • The claim that Kyiv and the West tried to derail the election, made with no evidence and no reply
  • A preliminary figure of 349 seats, which comes from the party's own chairman
  • Who the reports quote: only the party and the state

The bias in this coverageBias

Who picked the speaker depends on the headline

Two headlines name Putin as the one who backed Volodin. One of them attributes that to Medvedev and one states it flat. One headline names the party, and one names no one: Volodin simply 'was nominated'.

2 headlines naming Putin as the one who backed him 1 of those, headlines saying it came from Medvedev 1 headlines naming the party 1 headlines with no actor named

An enemy accused, and no reply

Three reports carry the claim that Kyiv, or Kyiv and the West, tried to derail the vote. One repeats Medvedev's insult for Ukraine's leaders and one says Kyiv used 'terror'. None of the reports we hold on this carries a response from Kyiv or the opposition.

3 reports carrying the derailment claim 0 reports with a response from Kyiv 0 reports quoting the opposition
Scored without the mastheads. Where the two passes differ, both are kept.

Claims and verdicts

unverified Putin backed Volodin as speaker of the new Duma.
Every report rests on Medvedev's word alone. Interfax quotes him saying Putin 'believes Volodin can successfully continue', and Life.ru and Regnum turn that into 'Putin supported' in their headlines.

This is an accusation by Russian officials: Medvedev in Life.ru and Vedomosti, and UN envoy Polyansky in TASS, who says Kyiv used 'terror against the civilian population'. None of these reports gives evidence or a response from Kyiv.

The only report with a seat figure: United Russia "may get" 349, Medvedev's preliminary estimate.
По словам Медведева, на данный момент партия набирает около 58% голосов по федеральному списку. Кроме того, её кандидаты победили более чем в 200 одномандатных округах. С учётом обоих способов распределения мест в партии сейчас рассчитывают на фракцию из 349 депутатов. Окончательным это распределение пока не является. Центризбирком должен официально подвести итоги выборов 25 сентября после завершения всех необходимых процедур и рассмотрения поступивших обращений. Выборы в Госдуму проходят по смешанной системе: из 450 депутатов половина избирается по партийным спискам, ещё 225 — в одномандатных
