Baltic Republican Party

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Baltic Republican Party (BRP) is a political party founded on December 1, 1993 in the Kaliningrad region of Russia, the northern former East Prussia. The chairmen are Sergei Pasko and Rustam Wassiljew. The main political goal is the establishment of an autonomous Baltic republic in Kaliningrad, possibly also complete political independence. A parliamentary democracy with independent judiciary should be introduced. The basic orientation of the party is socially liberal. Kaliningrad should be called Königsberg again and other cities should also bear their historical names again. On March 26, 2003, the BRP was revoked its status as a party under Russian law, and since February 21, 2005 it has been called the Respublika. The party has about 500 members.
