Great Fatherland Party (GFP) (Russian: Партия Великое Отечество, ПВО, Partiya Velikoe Otechestvo, PVO) is a Russian political party founded on 12 April 2013. The party leader and one of its founders is the writer and publicist Nikolai Starikov.
In 2016, the Party of the Great Fatherland declared its intention to participate in the elections for Russian regional parliaments, contesting seats in St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, Kaliningrad Oblast, Perm Krai, and Republic of Mordovia.[1]
The Russian abbreviation for the party name is ПВО (PVO), which also stands for anti-aircraft warfare (Russian: Противовоздушная оборона), so the party uses this fact for explanation of its goals: the party protects Russia as does anti-aircraft warfare and neither can be used for aggression.
