Stalinist Bloc

Four small radical political parties, the largest being “Workers’ Russia”, and Soviet dictator Josef Stalin’s grandson joined forces Sunday as “The Stalinist Bloc”. It was formally launched at a congress in a Moscow hotel Sunday, beneath banners bearing Stalin’s portrait imposed on a Soviet red star.
Jaume Ollé, 28 Aug 1999, quoting AP

Gone toghether

Flags like this were used by several youth pro-president organizations, led by movement Идущие вместе (=Gone together). In TV-reportage members of movement said: the red colour of the flag is for past (communism), the white Andrew’s cross is for modern times. Flags are not official. I saw this flag only one time.

Red Cross-road

At http://www.aha.ru/~intcentr/, this flag.
Dov Gutterman, 22 Mar 1999

Probably belongs to one marginal pro-communist organisation "Red Cross-road" (the meaning of the inscription). I’ve never heard of that organisation and have never seen the flag as well. The host of the site is the International Center for Forming of the Communist Doctrine.
Alexei Arkhipov, 22 Mar 1999

The mixing of tsarist symbols (Peter’s alternate naval flag), hammer and sickle and red-white-black might suppose a neonazi (or “fascist”, as they’re called here) party or group, a fringe group of soviet nostalgic nationalists (and hence the saloon style lettering certainly isn’t an US connection) but I’m not sure. None of the russians whom I asked knew this one. (I also have no idea why "s" and "t" are red while the other letters are black.)

Agrarian Party of Russia

What look like the party flag is at http://www.user.cityline.ru/~vmlca/apr/engl.htm. Is it a flag?
Dov Gutterman, Mar 1999

This weekend I saw TV reporting about congress of Agrarian party. The flag was green with golden sheaf.
Nikolay A. Khimenkov, 21 Mar 1999

Self-Governing Workers

I found a flag at http://politics.e-reliz.ru/politics/plso/whatnew.asp. It referes to a polictal party named Self-Governing Workers.

The hands are suspisiously like W. Smith’s proposal flag for Antartica.
