The Kremlin says it’s confident that Russian President Vladimir Putin will win the 2024 presidential election if he decides to run for another term in office.

Neither Putin, 71, nor the Kremlin has confirmed he will run for another six-year term in office

Senior Russian official Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin’s press secretary, told CNBC that though there has been no formal announcement that Putin will run for reelection, he believes the president will win the vote set to be held in March.

“There has been no formal announcement yet. But I have no doubt that if he puts forward his candidacy, he will win confidently,” Peskov said in emailed comments to CNBC.

“Society is consolidated around the president,” Peskov added.

Vlad still enjoys a 90 percent approval rating, the Russian people are united in their war against the collective West and US’s pet Nazis.

So hot, even a dead guy like The Putin can perform...

[kiryandil]

The Putin prefers mature women with experience - unlike your Biden.

[canuck_conservative]

plus, Putin has already killed off all his opponents, so there’s no one else to “vote” for

no wonder he gets 90% of the vote!

[Libloather]

Experienced.

[Secret Agent Man]

And really he doesn’t even have to do that.

They get harassed enough. I think often the strategy is to keep them alive to make them have to live with “defeat”.

[Secret Agent Man]

Hes not only a soviet president, hes a soviet wartime president.

Hes old school kgb. Hes still a soviet. Don’t be fooled.

[nonliberal]

Putin holds elections. Zelensky does not.

[canuck_conservative]

Russia has rigged “elections”, and kills any opposition candidates

yes, that’s a dictatorship

[Timber Rattler]

It’s easy to win when you kill off or imprison the competition.
