Wants to transfer power to his daughter: why Putin continues to play with the election nomination

Vladimir Putin, who has absolute power in Russia, is creating another spectacle with the so-called elections. Although everyone understands perfectly well that he will be “elected” for a new presidential term.

Russian human rights activist Mark Feigin said 24 Channel that Putin could easily declare himself a monarch. However, he cannot figure out how to introduce hereditary, dynastic transfer of power in Russia.

We need to justify

There is an example in this sense North Korea, where something like elections is also taking place, but the country has been ruled by the Kim family for 70 years.

Putin needs to justify such a system ideologically, but he hasn’t figured out how to do it himself president for life.

He wants to transfer power to one of his daughters, probably Katerina Tikhonova; if that doesn’t work out, then to another – Maria Vorontsova. If this doesn’t work out, then to a grandson or son from Alina Kabaeva. How Alexander Lukashenko is trying to do this, preparing his son Kolya for power, the human rights activist noted.

Putin has not yet finally decided how this can happen, so he continues to inertly move along the line compliance with the constitution, imitation of elections and a system of government that supposedly provides the people with rights.

Like to postpone decisions

The head of the Kremlin and his entourage are trying to find a way to make Putin’s power irremovable. However, so far there are obviously no problems for them.

“He can remain as president for two more terms – in 2024 and in 2030. When the second term expires, Putin will be 84 years old “. Then he will think about it. Putin generally likes to postpone the decision until later – when the time comes,” explained Mark Feigin.
