Presidential Election Russia Occupied Territories 2024
During the “presidential elections” held in Russia from 15-17 March 2024, Vladislav Davankov (“New People” party), Nikolay Kharitonov (Communist Party), Vladimir Putin, and Leonid Slutsky (Liberal-Democratic Party) competed for the presidency. Enabled to run yet again by controversial constitutional amendments effective 4 July 2020, Putin dominated the “elections” together with his controlled “opposition” excluding genuine opposition figures. These “elections” occurred under Putin’s regime control, both within Russia and illegally in occupied Ukrainian territories, including Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, ARC and Sevastopol.

Quoted from Russian media Vesti, this statement sought to present the Russian presidential elections held from March 15 to 17, 2024, as adhering to democratic norms. The participation of international observers was intended to lend credibility to the electoral process, encompassing both Russian territory and the Ukrainian regions occupied by Russia.

I should like to express my gratitude to Russia for allowing foreign observers to come. Not all countries do this. [Translated from Russian]
