Putin Alleges: Rigging in US Elections
Russian President Vladimir Putin, seeking a new six-year term, claimed rigging In past U.S. elections due to postal voting. Critics argue that the upcoming election is a mockery of democracy.
Putin claimed that in the United States, prior elections were falsified through postal voting. He alleged that ballots were purchased for $10, completed, and deposited in mailboxes without observer supervision. However, he did not provide evidence to support these assertions.
Putin’s opponents argue that the upcoming March election in Russia lacks genuine competition. They contend that the president holds unchallenged power. Meanwhile, Alexei Navalny, his main rival, is serving over 30 years in jail on charges he claims were fabricated.
Critics argue that the implementation of electronic voting provides authorities with an opportunity to manipulate the vote in Putin’s favor without being detected.
