Why do you think you're right?
President Vladimir Putin has proven himself a master of political manoeuvring and unpredictability. Still, the decision to invade Ukraine has received international condemnation. Taking into consideration that fact, the war has caused significant economic hardship and public dissatisfaction. According to Reuters, While Putin may not face any real competition in the election, he faces the most serious set of challenges faced by any Kremlin chief since Mikhail Gorbachev dealing with the collapsing Soviet Union more than three decades ago. The war in Ukraine triggered the biggest confrontation with the West since the 1962 Cuban missile crisis; Western sanctions have dealt the biggest external blow to the Russian economy in decades.
Why might you be wrong?
President Vladimir Putin has dominated Russian politics, he continues to have high approval ratings among the Russian public and has effectively eliminated political opposition.
Putin continues to enjoy broad support after nearly a quarter of a century in power, despite having launched an immensely costly war in Ukraine and provoked repeated attacks inside Russia.
According to some Russian opinion polls, he has an 80% approval rating, higher than before the Ukrainian war. According to Reuters, Putin enjoys the overwhelming support of the Russian people, who do not want to be given any lessons in democracy by the West and no politician in the West enjoys similar levels of approval as Putin does.
