Putin moves a step closer to a fifth term as president after Russia sets 2024 election date

Associated Press  

Lawmakers in Russia set the country’s 2024 presidential election for March 17, moving Vladimir Putin a step closer to a fifth term in office. Members of Navalny’s team said Thursday that they placed a number of billboards up in Moscow, St. Petersburg and other Russian cities reading “Russia” and “Happy New Year,” with links and QR codes leading to the website of their campaign against the Russian president, titled ”Russia without Putin.” The Associated Press found that some of the billboards already had been taken down shortly after the announcement. The Interfax news agency quoted the party’s leader, veteran lawmaker and staunch Putin supporter Sergei Mironov, as saying Thursday that A Just Russia would nominate Putin at a Dec. 23 congress even if the president decides to run as an independent. “But we will be working in any case” he said of Golos’ plans, adding that they will conduct monitoring throughout the campaign and support activists who get to polling stations on election day.
