As the wheels of history roll forward, Russia's political scene once again ushered in its critical moment.
Putin, the strongman who has long dominated Russia, has officially announced his participation in the 2024 edition of the 2024 edition along with two brave challengers.
But the question arises: can Putin win again, and what impact will his re-election have on Russia and the global political situation?
Prelude to the Russian ***
On December 8, Putin announced that he would participate in the ** elections in 2024.
The specific polling dates for the elections are scheduled for March 15-17, 2024, and the head of the Russian Federation Council, Matviyenko, confirmed the news, seeing Putin's candidacy as a symbol and guarantee of Russia as a strong, secure state.
At the same time, Neverov of the United Russia party said that the party would unconditionally support Putin as a candidate.
There are two details worth noting here: First, regarding the news of Putin's candidacy, the Russian side seems to have adopted strict secrecy measures and is unwilling to disclose information too early.
Earlier rumors of Putin's candidacy were hotly debated, but were immediately denied by officials, and the tactic may have been to ensure that the election runs smoothly.
Second, according to the Russian constitution, Putin should not run again, but the constitutional amendments passed in 2020 paved the way for Putin's "zero" term of office, paving the way for him to run again.
Putin's candidacy: the prologue of **
On the Russian political stage, the storm of history has gathered again, indicating that a far-reaching *** is about to be staged.
Putin, the strongman who has long ruled Russia, has announced his candidacy, and two more challengers — Boris, a former State Duma deputy and a journalist Catherine, have joined the political fray.
But the crucial question is: can Putin win again?And how will his victory affect the pattern of Russia and the world?Putin's candidacy seems to be a repetition of an old drama in the Russian political arena.
According to ** reports, Putin's approval rating remains high, with at least 70% of the Russian public supporting his re-election, which seems to have become a strong endorsement for Putin to fight again.
However, the candidacy of Boris and Catherine, although it seems to increase the intensity of the competition, still seems to be only a supporting role in the political arena in the face of Putin's huge political clout.
Putin's election: there is almost no suspense
In the current political environment, Putin's re-election seems a foregone conclusion. However, the West's attention to Russian politics has never stopped, and Catherine's pro-Western stance and suspicious ties with Western intelligence agencies have undoubtedly cast a layer of mystery over the West.
The speculation and questioning of Putin's physical condition in the West seems to be a potential challenge to his re-election, but Putin's recent frequent public appearances and participation in activities seem to quietly refute these suspicions.
Will the United States and the West constitute substantial interference in Putin's re-election path?This became another highlight in the Russian political drama.
It is true that the West does not want to see Putin re-elected, and they frequently hype Putin's health problems on the international stage, as if trying to influence the political situation in Russia.
But Putin's high approval ratings and political influence in Russia since 2000 seem to have become an unshakable bulwark on his path to re-election.
In the current international political environment, Russia is facing many challenges, especially in the context of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Putin's political decisions and international strategies will have a profound impact on the world pattern.
With the arrival of the first year, the election results of both Russia and the United States have the potential to trigger major changes in the global political economy.
Putin's re-election will not only have a far-reaching impact on Russia's domestic politics, but will also draw a new map of power on the international stage.
