Putin to run for president again in 2024 elections

Russian president Vladimir Putin announces his intention to run for the 2024 presidential election, ensuring his stay in power until at least 2030. Despite the costly war in Ukraine and attacks within Russia, Putin maintains strong support. The election will be held over three days in March 2024. With opposition politician Alexei Navalny imprisoned and critics silenced, Putin faces no significant political competition. In April 2021, Putin signed constitutional amendments allowing him to seek reelection twice more, potentially extending his presidency to 2036.
