Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said today that no decision has been made regarding the possible candidacy of Russian President Vladimir Putin for the presidential elections next year.
The Kommersant newspaper reported that the Kremlin’s internal political bloc is reportedly considering options for the composition of an initiative group that will nominate Putin for president.
Putin is expected to run for the presidency.
“It is quite clear that this topic is now increasingly attracting the attention of political experts, but so far no decision has been made in this regard. It is understandable that the time of announcing the election is approaching, but for now there are no decisions in this regard. You will be informed as soon as they are,” said Peskov.
Presidential elections in Russia should be held in March next year.
