Putin Wins Dictator for Life in Russian “Election”
Video Summary
Russia’s three-day presidential election has concluded, with Vladimir Putin winning with 87% of the votes. This is not surprising, given that his opposition is either dead, jailed, or exiled. Putin’s strategy is simple: eliminate anyone who disagrees with him, and he will always win. The election was not free and fair, with many candidates kept off the ballot. Even Russia’s hardline nationalists couldn’t get a candidate on the ballot.
The results are not surprising, given that freedom of speech and freedom of the press no longer exist in Russia. The government controls what language people use, what thoughts they have, and eventually, people come to embrace the idea of a big brother.
Putin’s election results have been consistent over the years, with him winning 53% of the votes in 2000, 71% in 2004, 64% in 2012, and 77% in 2018. This year’s result is a new record, with 87% of the votes.
The election was not without controversy, with reports of forced voting in occupied territories and soldiers intimidating voters. In some cases, voters were even tackled and arrested for refusing to vote for Putin.
Meanwhile, Russia’s expansionist goals go beyond Ukraine, with the country seeking to expand its territory and influence. NATO countries are concerned about this, but don’t know how to stop it. The war in Ukraine will never end unless Russia is stopped.
In other news, the UK defense secretary’s jet was jammed by Russian electronic warfare, and a Russian pundit accidentally revealed Russia’s expansionist goals on Kremlin State TV. Donald Trump has also been criticized for his comments on Ukraine, with some accusing him of trying to help Russia.
