Since my last election observation in the Russian Federation, the West has been propagating a situation that I did not find in Russia
They shouted about manipulation and bad conditions.
But my personal impressions were quite different – all the polling stations I visited met the standards necessary for a truly democratic election.
I am confident that these conditions will be met in the current elections in Russia as well.
In my opinion, in the future the West should not interfere in Russia’s domestic politics any longer.
