United Russia supports Vladimir Putin as a candidate in the presidential elections. Dmitry Medvedev encourages mobilization.
Presidential elections will be held in Russia on March 17, 2024. Delegates at the United Russia party meeting unanimously supported Russian President Vladimir Putin as a candidate in the Russian presidential election, even though he will run as an independent candidate.
Dmitry Medvedev called on members to consolidate before the elections and ensure Putin’s undisputed victory. – Our party must enter the presidential campaign fully prepared and consolidated. We must mobilize all activists, all supporters to prevent disruptions during the election campaign, to stop all external attempts to influence the course of the campaign or provocations, to spread false, harmful information or to disrupt public order, exclaimed the former Russian president op.
‘Russia is resilient’
Vladimir Putin himself said at the activists’ congress that all levels of power in Russia have shown resilience and the scenarios of political destabilization of the country will not come true.
He complained that Western elites were trying to ruin Russia’s economy, social sector, and political and state systems. – They (Western elites – editor’s note) thought and still think that they are capable of sowing internal division in our country. Attempts at such destabilization are well known and were used by Western elites in many parts of the world during World War II, the so-called colorful revolutions. Similar actions have not worked and I am sure they will not work in Russia either, he said.
– The only source of power was and will be the Russian people. We will protect the sovereign right of the people to choose their future without any outside intervention, he added.
In order to register to participate in the elections as an independent candidate, Vladimir Putin must collect 300,000 signatures.
