“Putin will be re-elected next year with more than 90% of the vote,” a Kremlin spokesman said.
He also commented on his views on the development of the Russia-Ukraine war. According to Peskov, there is currently no basis for signing a peace agreement and “Russia will continue the “special operation” in the foreseeable future”.
Asked if Russia was trying to grab more of Ukraine, he said: “No. We just want to control all the lands that are now written in the Constitution as ours.”
In 2018, Putin received the historically highest voter support – 76.6% – of the 99% of votes counted.
