The Russian Assembly (Russian: Русское собрание) was a Russian loyalist, right-wing, monarchist political group (party). It was founded in Saint Petersburg in October−November 1900,[1][2] and dismissed in 1917. It was led by Prince Dmitry Golitsyn.[3] It opposed liberal western parliamentarianism, and advocated 'the old formula of Autocracy, Orthodoxy and Nationality'.[3]
It consisted mainly of right-wing officers and civil-servants in St. Petersburg.[3]
