Anti-NATO (group in the Russian State Duma)

Anti-NATO is the group of the Russian second State Duma deputies united by a desire to prevent the inclusion of Eastern Europe in NATO. Anti-NATO was formed in the State Duma in 1997 and included 257 members of the State Duma (out of 450) and 47 members of the Federation Council.[1] It can also mean opposition to and total rejection of NATO.
