Russian President Vladimir Putin can choose not to hold presidential elections next year because he will “obviously” win re-election, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said late Sunday.

    That he will win them is indeed obvious. Since there have not been fair elections in Russia for quite some time, one cannot expect these to be fair.

        Hey now, windows and balconies were doing the heavy lifting (dropping?) earlier this year. Must have been a shortage in poison due to the embargos.

      Not having elections would make it more transparent to what is going on though. It should not be in Putin’s favour to just stop having them. Maybe he can’t afford the bill of having one this time.
