Putin: We call on Russian citizens to participate in the election and make responsible decisions so that the election results confirm the maturity of society. I believe that the officers and soldiers who are carrying out difficult combat missions will actively participate in the election. The best candidates, true patriots, will win the election. To participate in the election is to contribute together to Russia's victory.
