The Kremlin has started to prepare for the presidential election campaign in 2024 through the Russian - Ukrainian war.

 Despite Russia’s grinding military campaign in Ukraine, the Kommersant business daily reported Friday, that the kremlin is preparing for the next election by affording new agenda in the campaign 

President Vladimir Putin, 70, has been in power as president or prime minister since 1999. While Russian presidents are constitutionally limited to two terms, he gained the ability to seek election for a fifth term under 2020 constitutional amendments that reset the number of terms he has served.

The Kremlin’s domestic policy bloc believes Putin will seek re-election in 2024, Kommersant reported, adding that it had recently held preliminary talks with experts on the main components of his campaign.

“The outlines of the ideological component are still unclear, though it is assumed that it will be based on the theme of unity,” the publication said.
