Kaarina Aitamurto characterised the Ynglist Church as less politically goal-oriented than other Rodnover movements.{{sfn|Aitamurto|2016|p=51}} According to Victor Shnirelman, Aleksandr Khinevich was politically active in the propagation of Ynglist ideas between 1990 and 1993, but then left politics and became more focused on an esoteric development of the movement.{{sfn|Shnirelman|2017b|p=90}} The Russian scholar of religion Vladimir B. Yashin of the Department of Theology and World Cultures of [[Omsk State University]] wrote in 2001 that the Ynglist Church had close ties with the Omsk regional branch of the [[far-right politics|far-right]] political party [[Russian National Unity]] of [[Alexander Barkashov]], whose members provided security and order during the mass gatherings of the Ynglists.{{sfnm|1a1=Maltsev|1y=2015|1loc=passim|2a1=Shnirelman|2y=2017b|2p=90}} On the other hand, the non-Ynglist Russian Rodnover leader Nikolay Speransky (''volkhv'' Velimir) in the early 2010s classified Aleksandr Khinevich among the representatives of [[left-wing politics|left-wing]] ideas within Rodnovery, although recognising that he then kept most of his activity outside of politics.{{sfn|Shnirelman|2013|p=62}}
