RBC: The head of the Department of Internal Policy of the Kremlin Andrei Yarin will lead the election headquarters of Vladimir Putin in the presidential election.

To manage the election headquarters of Vladimir Putin, if he announces the nomination for a new presidential term, will be the head of the Kremlin Internal Policy Department, Andrei Yarin, RBC reports with reference to sources.

Yarin, like the rest of the officials, will not be a public figure, the interlocutors of the publication clarify.

According to RBC, the list of those who enter the headquarters is already practically formed, and its members will be employees of several Kremlin departments, representatives of United Russia and the All -Russian Popular Front.

In particular, the headquarters of the United Russia General Council, the head of the Central Executive Committee, Alexander Sidyakin and the first deputy head of the Central Executive Committee-the head of the financial and economic support department, Natalya Orlova, said the sources of the publication.

The Kremlin of RBC said that “so far no one has been appointed:“ We will never comment on and announce this in advance, ”said Presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov.

Yarin has already headed Putin’s election headquarters in the presidential election in 2018. In October 2020, the EU and Great Britain imposed sanctions against Yarin for the attempt on politician Alexei Navalny. Yarin is also under the sanctions of the USA, Ukraine and Canada.

On November 13, Kommersant wrote that the Kremlin began to discuss the composition of the Putin nomination group to the polls. According to the newspaper, the singer Shaman (Yaroslav Dronov), director Nikita Mikhalkov, State Duma deputy Valentina Tereshkova, head of the National Medical Chamber Leonid Roshal, commander of the Sparta battalion and the speaker of the self -proclaimed DNR Artem Zhoga, will include.

Plans to create such a group say that Putin, most likely, will go to the elections as a self -nominated person, said in Kommersant. In 2000, 2004 and 2018, the president also went to the elections as a self -nominated person.

Putin has not yet announced his participation in the elections. “In accordance with the law, the parliament should make a decision (on holding the presidential election) at the end of the year: when the decision will be made, the date will be announced, the date will be named, then we’ll talk,” the president said at the plenary meeting of the Eastern Economic Forum in September 2023.

After the adoption of the new edition of the Constitution of the Russian Federation in 2020, the current president got the opportunity to be elected, despite the fact that four presidential terms were already in positions (from 2000 to 2008 and from 2012 to the present). Amendments were made to the Basic Law, according to which the same person cannot occupy the post of head of state more than two terms (previously there were “more than two consecutive terms”), while the previous terms of Putin himself were “leaning”.
