Alot LOL! Vladimir Putin's reelection: What's in store for Russia? Around the world and inside Russia, the recent presidential election was perceived mainly as a formality. Few were surprised President Vladimir Putin won by a "record result" that secured his reelection. But what is in store for Russia now that he is in charge for yet another term? "The proclaimed 87% [election result] affirms the regime and Putin's increasingly dictatorial course," according to Regina Heller, a researcher at the Institute for Peace Research and Security Policy at the University of Hamburg. "The result does not reflect the will of the voters, but the will of the regime," she added. It serves as "a carte blanche for the regime, for Putin's policies and also for his policies and actions in Ukraine." Eastern Europe expert Hans-Henning Schroder told DW that Putin's regime had stabilized after enduring a crisis-ridden 2023.
