I would like to congratulate Vladimir Putin on his impressive victory in the elections that began today. There is no opposition. No freedom. There is no choice,” Michel wrote on his page on the social network X.
Let us remind you that four candidates are registered for the elections in Muscovy – Putin, Leonid Slutsky from the LDPR, communist Nikolai Kharitonov and Vladislav Davankov from the New People party. The Central Election Commission has not registered any opposition or anti-war candidate.
Ukrainian authorities call on Ukrainians living under occupation or forced to stay in Russia not to participate in the pseudo-elections.
The US and EU previously stated that they do not recognize the holding of so-called elections in the occupied territories of Ukraine.
Voting in Russia will last three days, in a third of the regions it will be, in particular, electronic. There is no doubt that according to its results, Putin will become president for the fifth time.
