 So now we're going to turn to Igor who's Russian So he's going to talk to us about his view of the American elections But also talk to us about the Russian election because Putin should announce very soon that he's a candidate Which should not be a big surprise But how is it viewed from the inside? Especially when the war is going on people and soldiers are killed How does he present himself to to the Russians and and and your take on the American elections also? Thank you very much. Thanks to to read him on bryar because from 2008 being a participant of the world policy conference That's that's worth an award There is no suspense in Russian election If it takes place on March 2024 as it's planned eighty percent of the population of those who will come to vote Will vote for for mr. Putin, okay? This is the genesis of the system. This is the history. This is the geopolitical situation Having said that Having said that Unfortunately, they didn't give me a clicker and I had some slides, but you have to believe me Yeah, you have to believe me that Sociology shows that number one among young people there is a big fatigue of the face because mr. Putin is in power for for the last 23 years and It's obvious then that Some young people want to change second even if something happens something very unexpected and then Mr. Putin for example says that I'm not running The same young people are divided into two equal Categories one would say we want a stronger military to head us and another one Ferociously saying no military at all. We need some peaceful and and civil development of of Russian Federation So here you have a split even among the young category of the voters Forget about the older ones who would 60% vote for somebody with the military background to head them Okay, so this is the second both of them both categories and both age groups would vote for more social justice and The talk about the progressive income tax, which is going on for for for decades and we still have a flat 13% income tax the the the talk about the Oligars who are around the the Kremlin and they run the country and and not us running the country and so on and so forth So whoever wins Should take this into a very serious consideration Very telling was the reply What about the mutiny of certain mr. Frigors and probably you heard of the mutiny this summer when Somebody very close to to power the owner of the private army who fought in Syria in Ukraine All of a sudden raised up and from Rostov-on-Don went to Moscow and was stopped only 100 and kilometers from Moscow So the reply of both young and old was 50% supported them That's telling in terms of the general mood of those who are going to go and vote Okay, so this is the this is it you have to take into consideration the feeling of social injustice the the need for change at least in the younger part of our population and nevertheless strong hand and Preferably something military Somebody military on top of us Again, I will end up this part by saying that 80% of those who will come will vote for mr. Putin. It's organized, but it's also Genuine support for the figure who is who is leading the country at the moment Very strong and influential people around him around Putin and visible on On the political screen and political stage of our country. They say why do we need election anyway? 80% is a given The supporters are given where in the war. Why bother? Why do we distract attention of the people? I would say that Putin will not buy this because he needs a referendum on what's going on So he will probably need a real and clean results from the different territories We don't forget that Russia is one seventh of the landmass with hundred nation and nationalities It's very telling and interesting to know Who reacts on what and how at this present stage of the serious geopolitical conflict like a survey for him It is a survey and a referendum for him and for people around him who run the country In his name or together with him Having said this I should say that given the circumstances About 30% of the survey 30% of those who participated in the sociological poll They didn't know that we are having the election and Didn't care less and so from this point of view this indifference also is very important to take into consideration for anybody who is doing the Politological management of the situation in in view of this American election is more Hype and interest for the average Russian then then probably ours and from this point of view there is no question that the mainstream Media is for Trump Whether they are given in sort of advice or that's their honest opinion No matter, but it's obvious from all of the analysis of the mainstream I'm not talking about telegram channels and social media, but the mainstream would would definitely provide all kind of support to Trump and all kind of Oh, he's old. He's falling from the tar market. It's such a to Biden. It's obvious Same would happen in French election if it happens tomorrow same kind of arguments will be in for in favor of Le Pen and against Macron if the the decision of Great Britain on Participation in EU would happen tomorrow They would be for Farage and and against anybody who who is Eurocentric so that's obvious that's the result of the geopolitical situation and Again, no matter what after March 24 if everything goes according to the normal plan Very serious messages will be delivered to Kremlin to take care of What's going on and from this point of view? of course, we are now junior partner of Chinese People's Republic and Certain elements will definitely be taken care of not only in Moscow, but in Beijing too So big reshuffle of the political staff. Is that what you're saying? We'll see what happens We in terms of reshuffle they talk about reshuffle all the time, but we know that mr. Putin is very loyal to his And why to his entourage? I don't think I don't think of great reshuffle But the accents should be should be changed seriously. Well, thank you for for this assessment
