Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law on Monday adjusting his term limits which would allow him to potentially remain in the nation’s highest office until 2036


quote:

A July 1, 2020, referendum saw the Russian electorate overwhelmingly back a constitutional amendment package which included a provision allowing Putin to seek an additional two terms as president once his current term in office expires in 2024. The Putin regime claimed 78 percent of voters backed the changes while 21 percent opposed them. State media reported turnout as exceeding 65 percent.

Yeah, but I don't think Biden is getting ideas about 2036. He's struggling with grasping the concept of next week.

Where is the poster from the other Russia thread that denied Russia is still communist or has the KGB?

The KGB is like ACORN they may have gone into hiding and changed their name but they still exist.

It is like saying Russia doesn't have spooks or intel.

They have a succession problem.

I don’t think he’s found anyone to replace him.

It’s probably a weak bench, but he also created that problem by sidelining potential rivals.

On the other hand, in an autocratic system, powerful rivals are very dangerous. You have to crush them, before they crush you.

This a problem they’ve faced since the Tsar abdicated.

Just goes to show you that Monarchies are much more firm and stable than the average republic that's more corrupt and chaotic.

Agreed

Democracies are inferior to Monarchies. Democracies produce a ruling class of crooks.

The Russians saw Joe Biden and were scared shiteless that could happen there. Better to stick with Putin.

They are not, and haven't really been since 1648. Even before it was arguable that they were "stable" though some polities developed interesting methods of ruling diverse groups.

That's funny as the democrats after stealing the election are attempting to change voting laws, make DC and Puerto Rico states to ensure they keep power for the next 100 years.
