Rusia a dat startul alegerilor parlamentare. Ce vea Putin să obțină

Russia begins a three-day electoral marathon for the State Duma, seen as a facade by many analysts. This election is the first since the Ukraine invasion and features significant changes, including voting from occupied Ukrainian territories and the exclusion of the anti-war party Yabloko. The ruling United Russia party is expected to secure a majority, with the election serving as a gauge of public support for President Putin's policies. Independent observers are absent, and the Kremlin will likely use high voter turnout to demonstrate national unity. The elections occur under strict control, with a limited range of parties on the ballot, all of which are pro-Kremlin or tolerated opposition.
