Vene Erakond Eestis
The Vene Erakond Eestis - VEE ( German Russian Party in Estonia , Russian Русская партия Эстонии) is a conservative party of the Russian-speaking residents of Estonia, which campaigns primarily for stronger political and social rights of the ethnic minorities in Estonia.
The vein Erakond Eestis sees itself as the political representative of the Russian-speaking minority and the Russian Orthodox Church in Estonia . With this claim, the party competes with the Konstitutsioonierakond , which is left-wing.
The VEE was founded in October 1994. In 1996 it merged with the Russian People's Party ( Vene Rahvapartei ). In 2003, three more Russian-speaking parties joined the VEE: Vene Balti Erakond Eestis (VBEE), Vene Ühtsuspartei (VÜP) and Erakond Eestimaa Ühtsus (EÜ).
In the Estonian parliamentary elections in 2007 , the VEE received 0.2% of the votes cast. In the 2011 parliamentary election , 0.9% voted for the party. Politically, the Erakond Eestis vein is insignificant.
