Putin called for strengthening the internal political situation two weeks before the legislative elections. The Russian president faces a period of low popularity that has worried the Kremlin.
Putin's popularity has fallen in recent months by more than 13 percentage points. This decline is attributed to war fatigue, internet blocking, and fuel shortages affecting the Russian population.
Analysts point out that these factors have contributed to a challenging political environment, with the proximity of the legislative elections increasing pressure on the Russian government to resolve these internal issues.
