The commission said 29 people have so far filed to run for the presidency. But after today’s decision, Mr Putin remains the only candidate to be able to register as a candidate.
Not just this anti-war candidate. It appears all candidates are banned from challenging Putin.
They ran a shitty corrupt government, tried to conquer eastern Europe, failed, renamed themselves to “Russian Federation”, and are now trying to recapture lost states while feeding people into a never ending meat grinder.
Did people really think a dictator would let a silly thing like an election get in the way of his ambition for power? It’s hilarious that people thought Putin would give up his power without violence. The only way Putin will ever leave power is through violence. Look at those gigantic tables he sits at. Putin knows how “popular” he is, even in his own country.

The people in Russia have no legal way to challenge their government. Thanks, USSR.
what it has todo with USSR?

I don’t see how modern Russia is still the USSR. Could you explain?
Putin is desperate to restore Russia to its former USSR glory. That’s why he wants Ukraine so badly.
I feel like, if the USSR is to blame for modern Russia, then Tsarist Russia shares some of the blame as well
How so if it was indeed occupied for years?
