The Moscow correspondent of the “Presse” speaks in the Pocast regarding the elections in Russia, the people who visit Navalny’s grave and the fear that Putin might enforce even stricter laws following the election.

This Sunday evening around 8 p.m. Central European time it should be clear what was already completely clear in advance. Putin will be re-elected, then his fifth term in office begins. Inna Hartwich has been reporting from Moscow for years and describes the mood in the country, where 110 million people will be eligible to vote from tomorrow. Who is running alongside Putin, what can be expected from Putin following the election and how high will his approval rating be this time?

Is Putin restless?

There were many people who dared to show up at Alexei Navalny’s funeral last Friday. And for many it was a sign that they are not alone and “that there are thousands of people who also think the same way.” To this day, many people visit his grave and place flowers there. There, too, people see others and it gives them hope, says Inna Hartwich.
