Putin calls for strengthening the political situation two weeks ahead of legislative elections

RTP Notícias5 September 2026 at 19:25

Russian President Vladimir Putin called for the need to strengthen the domestic political situation and the solidity of the Russian state, despite the difficulties and threats the country faces. The appeal was made two weeks before the legislative elections.

The elections in question are the Russian legislative elections, scheduled for next month. Putin seeks to在这些选举中重新获得宪法多数席位,以确保其政治议程能够顺利推进。

The context of the threats mentioned in Putin's appeal is not specified in the article, but it suggests a scenario of internal or external tension that the Russian leader considers necessary to counter through a reinforcement of the country's political stability.

This is not the first time Putin has appealed for national cohesion at critical moments of his mandate. The defense of the Russian state's solidity appears as a recurring theme in his public communications, especially when important electoral processes approach.
