Poll: What do you think about the elections in Russia?

The elections in Russia ended yesterday and, as easily predictable, Vladimir Putin was confirmed as president, with 87% of the votes.

Faced with this event and this result there were two attitudes:

  • the first took note of the fact, however recognizing that there had been elections. The result, even if perhaps not of the dimensions announced, nevertheless legitimizes Vladimir Putin as president and therefore as a party to the game.
  • a second attitude however, expressed by the position of our foreign minister Tajani , states that the elections are completely illegitimate, marked by violence and therefore Vladimir Putin cannot be recognized as President of the Russian Federation because it is not the expression of the will of the majority of Russians.

The first point shows that in any case there is a part to deal with, even if perhaps it is seen in a profoundly different way. The second position, rejecting electoral legitimacy, sees the resulting government as a kind of coup or occupation government that, logically, should not be dealt with. A bit like the USA with the Venezuelan Maduro.

So vote, tell us your opinion, and let us vote. Survey duration: 48 hours
