Why Russia's 2024 election actually matters | About That

- Vladimir Putin is officially in the running for his fifth term in office ahead of next spring's Russian elections, solidifying his hold on power until at least 2030. In a race where the winner is almost guaranteed, Putin will be re-elected in March - but what could he lose in the process?
CORRECTION (Dec. 14, 2023): A previous version of this video incorrectly stated at 3:56 that Dmitry Medvedev is Russia's current prime minister. In fact, he held that role until 2020. The video has been edited to remove that part. A clip at 7:48 was also edited out because the broll did not match the audio.

I like how you say prighozin died in a plane crash with a straight face.
Because he did. Do many betrayers that try to overthrow a popular government get to live in westoid countries?
Ah, sorry, you don't have popular governments or actual elections, my bad. It's easy to take those for granted while you live in Russia and not some westoid hellhole.
Well technically he did...in the orchestrated crash.

Those aren't even opposition. Those are his own businessmen who failed to either impress or provide him with enough money.
Putin's political opposition has gone extinct with the assassination of Boris Nemtsov 8 years ago.
Alexei Navalny isn't an official opposition figure but rather seen as little more than an activist, as he lost his official right to run for office in 2014, 9 years ago.

vladimirovich is not putin's middle name. It is his patronym. Middle names are not used in that culture.
If person older than you or you have respect to this person you go with his name and fathers name
His father name is or was Vladimir that is popular in Russia: Zelensky is also Vladimir. That is why his middle name is Vladimirovich. If his father name would Ivan then his middle name Ivanovich: just adding -ovich to father name
@@dinrash7613 Zelenskyy is not Vladimir, his name is Volodymyr. Full name is Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelenskyy. Note that adding "ovich" to the father's name is a russian-language thing. It does not hold true in other languages of that area of the world. The example you offered is incorrect, even if his father's name was Ivan.

@@enigma591Also, the “-ovich” prefix is for sons I think, and for daughters it is “-ovna”.
At 6:21, bit of an error. It wasn't a "plane crash". Wings don't just fall off planes (accompanied by flames) mid-air, unless the plane does something like accidentally carry explosives up there with them, or run into explosives carried by something such as a missile randomly just flying around up there.
They say it was a plane crash because that is all that can be said with absolute confidence. The rest is speculation, even though it might be reasonable speculation.
Technically still a plane crash
No video or picture evidence of that.
@@markobucevic8991 Yes. Yes there was video evidence of the plane, in flames, with a missing wing spiraling out of the sky.

The identity of the voters is inconsequential; what truly matters in Russia is who is responsible for counting the votes.
Same as in the USA
@@EristiCat No it's not the same in the USA. The White House has no control of the names on the regional ballots, it has no control of vote counting and has no control of the media. Having a free and independent press to scrutinize the election process at all levels makes large scale voter fraud and manipulations pretty much impossible and not worth the risk.
Russia doesn't even have independent media which means a democratic election goes out of the window, just like putins opponents.
@@EristiCatNot really. Name me one case of proven voter fraud in the last election cycle.
@@EristiCat No, not the same.
Don't all parties send controllers to count the votes?
..” elections” … 🤣seriously ?
Yeah, it's interesting he had navalny killed before the election. Sends a message I guess. 'This is what happens if you oppose me and get too popular.'
Too little has been said about the Russian opposition, inside or outside Russia, I understand that it has no real power, but opposition sentiments are strong in Russia, I would not advise trusting the Levada Center, as people are very afraid to answer such calls, and those who answer often lie for their safety, and as a result, about twenty percent of those who received a call respond, in fact, the absolute majority of Russians do not have clear views on Putin and even on the war, and do not believe that something can be fixed, but speaking of politically active people, the number of anti-war and pro-war Russians is almost equal, according to my observations. I would also recommend watching videos from channel 1420 to understand the general mood inside Russia, although it is worth noting that very few people even answer their interviews.
So many opposition poisoned or in jail, or both. Why would anyone go against Putin? Just paid politicians, paid to lose but put up a performance.
It's crazy that Prigozhin died in the middle of this year (2023) when it felt like years ago 😳 So many things happened these few years that there's no time to breathe.
edit: BTW recent report says Navalny is missing in prison
Probably went to Stanford to visit his daughter and bosses
Navalny can't be missing in prison.
Siberia, I’m sure he is fine, his popularity in Russia is strong.
Russia kills popular opposition or journalists who don't repeat state propaganda.
Casualty does not mean dead. And why would you quote just one, obviously bias source.
At this point you start to question validity of this video.
Yeah, it was kinda exaggerated. I heard exaggerated number of casualties in Ukraine is 500 thousands. It was said by Ukrainian. He wanted to convince people to join the army.
American and British intelligence sources largely agree with Ukrainian estimates of Russian casualties.

Kind of weird that you are still calling it "election" in russia....when you know how their system is
В чужом глазу соринку видишь, в своем бревна не замечаешь
Putin will just say: "I got 98% in the vote - our 'independent' electoral commission has verified this result" regardless of whatever the 'real' result is.
There is no way in hell that Putin is going to announce that he got less of the result that before.
The premise of your conclusion is undermined by this fact.

Great information and news!!!
That KIA number of 300k Russians is way off base by everyone except the Lincoln project folks and western war hawks.
Western predictions on Russian War casualties must not be trusted. Remember UK is Russia's enemy, so its obvious that they will over exaggerate Russian losses and try to hide Ukrainian losses as much as possible. These are Western propaganda.
Mediazzona (western media outlet in russia) tracks obituaries in Ru and they managed to count less than 45k. Any other estimates are tracked back to UKR MOD and used by media in the west for its audience.
300k Russians was misreported in this video, the British MOD were reporting 300k+ Russian casualties, killed and wounded. British MOD currently estimate that if the current Russian casualties rate is sustained throughout 2024, that will result in 500K Russian casualties.
@@snuscaboose1942 and where does British MOD gets these numbers from?
Oh wait.....it's UKR MOD where they get it from. No one knows.....not even an American DOD is willing to answer that question.
It's just these two liars that engage in these lies.

And yet here we are in Canada ..want to talk about democracy and the Rule of Law ..Last two elections here in Canada...And who voted for a Liberal/NDP coalition Regime? Why is there so many investigations stopped by the Liberal/NDP coalition Regime? What are they hiding? Why are over two million Canadians in food lines? Why are there tent cities across Canada?

Poor Canada is worse than Somali under dictatorship
whataboutism
That's what state propaganda usually does - smoke and mirrors. They'll be speaking about "dictatorships" all over the world whole day, just to occupy the listener, so the one would not ask such questions as yours.
@@Tom_Ka_Guy Ah, yes. The term that was made up to avoid answering for your own deeds. You can't judge a thief, after robbing 10 people yourself. That's what it is. It's called "moral right", not "whataboutism".
You need more tin foil for your hat.
Tony Blair is of the view that initially Putin was western facing and genuinely interested in having good relations with the west. In reality the challenges of reform in Russia were too great and so there was a return to the old autocratic playbook. Imagine how much better off Russia and it citizens could be in another time, same place.
I like Tony Blair, but that's just self denial, and utter nonsense!
Putin had the KGB plant bombs in 1999, which killed "300" Russians, and then blamed Chechen terrorists, declaring war on Chechnya... his polling went from 2% to over 50% this is how he won the Presidency.
And from what I understand Putin, or at the least KGB which he was in, and used to head at one point were attacking those trying to bring democracy to Russia, even then.
There are a number of UA-cam videos on this?
Putin didn't have the knowledge to know where to start. Giving land to private farmers and making it easy for private industry to sprout never crossed his mind because that would mean the government had to relinquish power and control over production, transformation and economy.
That sounds about right. Russia is a massive multi ethnic empire without a history of democratic institutions.
The same can be said about UK.
@@EristiCat nopes 🤷♂
Of course he will win. He ain't stepping down for a long time, unless he has a handpicked successor who he can trust and knows will guarantee his security.
why the music?!
And how do you know what putin thought. No one ever said a war could be won in days. There was a peace treaty that was supposed to be signed in Ukraine when Russian forces were near the Ukraine capital. But it got denied at the last second because Ukraine was promised so much but at the end got so little. And now because of not signing the peace agreement, the Russian forces are in Ukraine and basically have full control of the eastern side and I don’t think it will ever be given back just like Crimea. The smart thing is to sign the peace treaty so that Ukraine continues to exist And not fully fall apart once the western money runs out.
Inccorect, there is someone who say, or should I say some claim Russia won the war in 3 days? That is the Marshall of NATO and ISW from US.
Putin's KGB career was un remarkable. He was a low level paper pusher. In other words, a "Flunky"
Like putin or not but he made his country greater from when the soviet union fell apart. That’s why the people keep electing him

Prigozhin "surrendered" because Prigozhin's family was threatened?
Nobody knows why. It was so mysterious. However he is believed to be bribed. I'm Russian and I was excited that day in a strange way. I haven't supported Wagner group of course but I was happy that our greatly hated authority has finally faced some challenges.
Good Analysis. Though, 300,000 casualties, not KIA. Guys, you should get your stuff together.
Yeah, when I heard this I had to rewind it and hear it again. And most funny number comes from UA sources - 1.500.000 casualties on the RU side. Comedy.
Very interesting
Interesting, but background music is to loud, can‘t concentrate 😅

The system in Russia is not Putin, it just looks like it is
Agree. This point is not emphasized enough.
Good piece. Thank you.
Very interesting indeed. But could have done without the dramatic music.
This is SO SO riddled with inaccuracies, complete incompetence masked by unfounded confidence,....
A pretty factually poor piece disguised by a reasonably professional production.
How? Explain please
it's called propaganda
WHY western world think that Putin is Russia and Russia is only Putin. They have serious politics full of others important people who also making decisions. Putin can't do what he want he also need approve from other politicians. Even if Putin stop be a president Russian politics will stay the same.
If you promote that image, you can make people believe that there is an actual dictator at work.
Because its a perfect propaganda being run over and over since like 1946 my guy and generation after generation just consume it. No question ask.
Other politicians, who all are his close friends from the same party...
The pic with Bush and Putin is great, because it's the only one where Putin is lacking ear lobes.
There are many countries with “benevolent dictatorships” and some less benevolent. There are still other countries where the democratic process is equally farcical or worse so.

When the CBC says that Dimitri Medvedev is still the prime Minister of Russia you know what to do about their Britain government claim that 300 000 Russian soldiers were killed in Ukraine even though only 180 000 Russian troops were sent to Ukraine.
No I did not make a mistake in the numbers. Only about 180 000 Russian soldiers were sent to Ukraine, of which only half of them were fighting men. The other were support staff.
Most fighting men were sent back to Russia in May 2022 and replaced by irregular forces like the Kublai Cossaks, Chechen fighters, Wagner and local Ukranian militias of Russian decent.
These irregular forces are the ones doing the bulk of the fighting in Ukraine.
The vast majority of the Russian regular forces are back in Russia.
There are pro western Russian liberals doing research in Russia on behalf Western news agency.
These people are checking obituaries, knocking on every door in Russia, harassing the families of Russian servicemen and women all across Russia to calculate how many Russian soldiers have died in Ukraine and the maximum number they were able to get was around 38 000 casualties both wounded and dead.
Far far off the 300 000 dead claimed by the British, the same people who claimed Iraq had Weapons of mass destruction.
Russia invaded Eastern Ukraine and basically sat there, built trenches, dragons teeth fortifications, mine field covered by layers of artillery fire killing field and took defensive positions while waiting for Ukrainian soldiers to throw themselves at them to be impaled by Russian artillery and scorched by Russian air power.
And yet you want to tell us that Russia lost 300 000 soldiers when they enjoy complete air superiority in Eastern Ukraine.
They outnumber Ukranian artillery 7 to 1, in many cases 10 to 1. They outnumber Ukranians in drones 6 to 1 and are fighting a defensive war from well protected trenches.
Yeah right 🤣
And by the way, you CBC clowns the second most popular party in Russia with the second largest support base after Putin's United Russia are the communists.
So go ahead and ask for Putin to step down and you will see what will happen to Ukraine when the communists take over Russia again.
You better thank your lucky stars Putin is in Charge of Russia.
In Russia Putin is a moderate.
He is actually the most pro western leader Russia will ever have.
He wanted good relations with the West but you kept on pushing NATO expansion down his throat towards Russia's borders which are a direct threat to a country that lost 27 million people in WWII to another coalition of countries who wanted to destroy it.
What do you think when the communists would do to Ukraine and NATO if ever took power in Russia again.
If Russia enjoys complete air superiority why do their jets keep getting shot down? And why can't they establish that superiority across an area bigger than their small air defense network? Desert Storm was more than 30 years ago and Russia still can't match that level of expertise and operational efficiency.
@@rbesfe Are you telling me that the US did not achieve air superiority over Vietnam during the Vietnam War and Germany in WWII?
Cause the US lost 2,251 aircraft: 1,737 to hostile action during the Vietnam War.
The US and the Allies also got thousands and thousands of warplanes shot down over Germany .
Air superiority doesn't mean you don't lose any warplanes. It means you deny the enemy's airforce the ability to operate freely over the area of conflict.
Ukraine is much larger than Iraq.
Ukraine actually has S-300.
Iraq has S-125.
Russian drones, cruise and ballistic missiles can do the job it's warplanes can do without putting warplanes at risk.
While the US bombed Iraq, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia indiscriminately without any concern for civilians.
40% of the Ukrainian population is Ethnic Russian
Therefore, Russian forces are under strict orders from Putin to minimize mass casualties on the civilian population of Ukraine.
That is why Russia killed 12x less children in the entire 2 years of war in Ukraine than Israel killed in 2 months bombing Gaza.
Furthermore, barely any Russian jets are getting shot down. It's Ukranian jets that are being blown up and are unable to fly throughout much of their own country
Plus Ukraine is much much bigger than Iraq.
The Russian air force is concentrating it's operations in the areas around the contact line between Russian and Ukranian forces and using ballistic, cruise and drones to hit deep inside Western Ukraine.
The Russian military is fighting this war with 2 hands behind its back.
They don't even see this conflict as a war.
If the Russian military saw this as war all the Satellites and telecommunications aiding Ukraine would have been shut down or shut off a long time ago z together with all the water and electricity in Ukraine.
KIEV would have been carpet bombed like Allepo 2016 and Grozny in 1999.
Zelensky is living in the presidential palace meeting world leaders on the daily basis using easily traceable telecommunications devices.
. You think the Russians don't know where he is?
You think the Russians can't get to him.
If Russia considered this a war he would have been dead on day 1.
Again Kiev and all Ukranian major cities would have been carpet bombed into a mood crater the same way Israel is carpet bombing Gaza.
All of Ukranian economic and industrial capacity would have been target and destroyed and so would it's population centers.
Russian artillery and the Russian air force would have just be bombing Ukraine for the sake of the total destruction of Ukraine WWII style
That is how Russia conducts war.
This is not even a war to Russia.

Thank you, I was greatly amused by your statement.
Are there elections in Russia? How can you hold elections in a country if there are no opponents?
How could anyone consider this election to have any meaning whatsoever?
Remember who tried to run against him in the last election? Navalny.... and where is he now?
As a failed oligarch, who among other failed endeavors, played patsies with the US deep state, asking for millions of dollars for a big operation in Russia to promote himself, he is where he belongs. Dabble in regime change and take your risks, for when the US deep state feels you might no longer adequately serve their interests.
Navalny's support was never more than low single digits.
As Kissinger said: Being an enemy of the US is dangerous, being a friend can be fatal.
Ask Zelensky how that "friendship" with the US is going.
Opportunistic Realists might say the "The enemy of my enemy is my friend". Maybe, For a while.
A better way to look at such is: You can't always tell your friends for the enemies they make, but you can always tell your enemies from the friends they keep.
Navalny is most assuredly in the later group. Look at who has been championing Navalny and what their track record is for honesty, fairness, a truly free press and so on.
Actually, Zelensky got an honorable mention in the Panama Papers. If he gets out with his head still on his shoulders, he should do OK.

@@bananian they were labeled misogynist, white supremacist, far right, fringe radicals. They were advertised as being disrespectful, littering in the streets. They pushed this narrative and closed bank accounts for people that even donated. Justifying them their rights under our regular laws. Then the news justified them being trampled by police horses. Then the media pretended that it never happened and everything the truckers requested happened eventually. No apology from the media or government.

At least Russia is having elections. How about CBC does a piece about the amazing democracy we are paying with our tax dollars to save called Ukraine and about their upcoming non elections?
Oh wow, here comes the Q wing of Canadian politics.
@@marktwain168 What! Like Russia is the benchmark of democracy?
Found the Russian troll bot.
The last Russian election was 2018. The last Canadian election was in 2021 and the next will be in 2025. Canadian election schedules are more flexible, but there's a limit of 5 years and it's not always that long. Russia has 6 year terms.
@@marktwain168 not at all.
10:55 They voted to join Russia just like Crimea, and were politically more aligned towards pro-Russia candidates in former Ukraine before the SMO. You're running out of propaganda ideas.
Russia :
Putin Vs A Plate of cold Cabbage (Result: Knowing Cabbage can’t rule, 98% of the Russian People Vote for Putin)
USA : The Plate of cold Cabbage gets 81 Million Votes
Is that right... Either way the Russian election turn, we preempt ourselves the opportunity to interpret. Smart.. Because in the changing world we may need the flexibility....March 2024 is still in March next year, isn't it... and that, in (Geo)political life could be a lot of heads...??
What’s the difference between imprisoning and debanking the people when they disagree with their elected leader. After all, they are both punitive measures against dissidents.
I guess one could ask the Canadian courts their thoughts on that 😅
debanking isn't a word, does Russia teach their trolls proper english anymore?
Describes the democrat leadership PERFECTLY
Wu mao. Oh wait, you don't speak Chinese, yet....
You are not very awake! For over three weeks, the so-called Freedom Convoy occupied a street in front of the Canadian parliament with their big trucks. The Canadian government invoked the Emergencies Act. Then, banks have temporarily frozen the accounts of some organizers of the protest. This was not business as usual, but something that had never happened before in Canada. Plus, the Public Order Emergency Commission was put into force to inquire into the circumstances that led to the declaration of the Emergencies Act. Even the Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was sat in front the Commission and questioned on this matter.
well putin didn’t expect the us to just waltz into the war
