Preamble:
According to a report by the global network, on May 7, 2024, Putin has been sworn in as the eighth president of Russia.
So far, Putin has held the post of Russian president for several years in a row, and he has great popularity among the Russian people.
You may wonder how a person who was born as an agent can do this?
And this is also thanks to Putin's life experience
Putin was born in Leningrad in 1952 and at the age of 18 he was admitted to the law faculty of Leningrad University.
After entering university, Putin joined the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and joined the KGB to begin his legendary life.
Later, between 1985 and 1990, Putin was sent by the KGB to the German Democratic Republic to collect economic intelligence.
After the reunification of the two Germanys, Putin returned to China, and it was at this time that Putin officially began to enter the political arena.
From 1990 to 1999, Putin successively served as an adviser to the chairman of the Leningrad City Soviet and the first deputy mayor of St. Petersburg. Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation and other positions.
During this period, Putin's super-strong ability to work attracted Yeltsin's attention.
In 1999, under Yeltsin's appointment, Putin took the post of prime minister of Russia.
On December 31 of the same year, Yeltsin suddenly announced his resignation, and according to the Russian Constitution, Putin should take over the post of Russian president.
As a result, the presidential election, originally scheduled for June 2000, was forced to be brought forward to March, and in the end, Putin was elected the third president of Russia with more than 50 percent of the vote.
Since then, Putin has started his legendary career as president.
After four years in office, Putin was re-elected to the presidency in the 2004 elections for his contributions to Russia.
Moreover, Putin's share of the vote in this election came to a terrifying 70 percent.
It wasn't until 2007 that Putin's presidency took a turning point.
In 2007, United Russia and other parties jointly elected Dmitry Medvedev, then the first deputy prime minister of Russia, as the fourth president of Russia.
Putin agreed, and after receiving Putin's support, Medvedev also announced that he would appoint Putin as prime minister after he took office.
In the 2008 election, Putin also stepped down as Russian president with 392 votes and took up the post of prime minister.
However, four years later, Putin once again staged a scene of "the return of the king".
In 2011, Putin announced that he would run in the upcoming presidential election, and he also reciprocated by announcing that if he was elected, he would also appoint Medvedev as the country's prime minister.
And when the election came, Putin once again relied on an overwhelming margin to successfully be elected president of Russia.
And until May 7 this year, Putin was once again re-elected as the eighth president of Russia with his approval rate of more than 80%, and started a six-year presidential career.
As for the question of why Putin has always been able to occupy a super high position in the hearts of the Russian people, in addition to his early experience, it is also inextricably linked to various initiatives during his tenure.
The first is Putin's military moves, and as we all know, Russia has a household name, that is, the "fighting nation".
Therefore, in recent years, regional wars led by the Russia-Ukraine war have always been active in the eyes of the international community.
And Russia, as one of the belligerent countries, has always been active on the battlefield.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Chechnya has been a very turbulent region.
When Putin first assumed the presidency, he commanded and launched the second Chechen war with the attitude of resolving the dispute in the Chechen region as soon as possible.
During this war, Putin also visited the front line many times to cheer for the commanders and fighters fighting on the front line.
In the end, also under Putin, the terrorists in the Chechen region were dealt a serious blow.
Then came the Russian-Ukrainian war as we know it, and since 2022, a fierce conflict has broken out between Russia and Ukraine.
To this day, the Russia-Ukraine war has been going on for almost two years and has not been able to make effective progress.
However, Putin's attitude in the military has always adhered to a tough attitude, which is also a compound of the character characteristics of the fighting nation.
This point is also vividly demonstrated in the ABM treaty between Russia and the United States.
In 2002, the United States announced its withdrawal from the ABM Treaty with Russia and began to deploy missile defense systems in the Czech Republic and Poland.
I believe that anyone with a discerning eye knows what the intention of the United States is in this move, and Russia has also clearly seen the ambitions of the United States.
As a matter of fact, long before the two countries signed the ABM Treaty, there had been consultations on this issue, and Putin even threatened that if the United States insisted on deploying a missile defense system in Europe, it would aim its own missiles at Europe.
However, in the end, the United States still did not listen to the dissuasion and insisted on going its own way, and Russia expressed strong dissatisfaction with this afterwards.
Subsequently, Russia also negotiated with the United States to jointly use the radar system established in Azerbaijan, so that the threat of the American anti-missile system to Russia could be reduced.
It's just that in the end, it won't be over, and in addition, in terms of army building, Putin also attaches great importance to it.
As of 2022, the number of Russian troops has risen to 1.15 million.
Moreover, Putin also attaches great importance to conscription, as well as soldiers' families, and not only allows people with multiple nationalities to enlist in the army as Russian citizens.
He also allows those whose parents are not Russian citizens to become Russian citizens, and various policies also reflect Putin's importance to army building.
And people's support for Putin is not entirely reflected in the military aspect, Putin's social measures have also made the Russian people very convinced.
Putin's attention to the Russian people and the military is not far behind.
Because whether it is the outbreak of the war in Chechnya, or the pause during the 2023 strategy committee meeting to see if the winning girls in the previous wishing tree event have been honored.
It can be seen that Putin attaches great importance to the domestic people, and it is precisely because of these that the Russian people agree very much with Putin's appointment as the president of the country.
Moreover, after Putin's inauguration as President of Russia, a very important event was announced.
On May 7, after attending his inaugural speech, Putin announced that after the election, the first country Putin wanted to visit would be China.
This is also very exciting for many Chinese people, because the countries between the mainland and Russia have always been friendly and stable.
Chinese netizens also gave Putin a very domineering nickname, that is, "Putin the Great".
It can be seen that Putin's status in the hearts of Chinese netizens is not low, and this is due to the friendly relations between the mainland and Russia.
During Putin's tenure, he visited the mainland many times.
During the Beijing Olympic Games and the Winter Olympics, Putin also repeatedly stated that China and Russia are very important cooperative partners.
Since 2000, the total volume of trade between the mainland and the Soviet Union has been less than $10 billion, but by 2014 this figure had reached a staggering nearly $100 billion.
From here we can also see the friendly ties between the mainland and Russia.
And between the mainland and Russia, there is a very interesting phenomenon.
That is, both the mainland and Russia have been expanding their military forces in recent years, but strangely, neither Russia nor the mainland seems to care about this.
During Putin's visit to the mainland again, he also said that only by developing armaments can China better protect its people.
It can be seen from this that the trust between the mainland and Russia is very deep.
In addition, after Putin's inaugural speech, there was a very heartwarming scene.
That is Putin warmly met with his homeroom teacher, and also cordially sent flowers and sincere greetings to the teacher.
From here, we can also see that even if Putin is the president of a country, he can still respect his teachers, and this kind of personality charm may also be the reason why he can win the trust and respect of the Russian people.
As everyone's life leader, the teacher will definitely have a great impact on the future of the child, and I believe that this teacher, who is over 90 years old, will also be of great significance to Putin's life.
At the same time, after learning that Putin will continue to serve as Russian president, the mainland, as one of Russia's best partners, also congratulated him for the first time.
It is believed that during Putin's future term of office, the relationship between the mainland and Russia will also usher in great progress.
However, under the solemn presidency of the country, Putin has another side that no one knows.
Putin is also a very athletic person, and he also attaches great importance to physical exercise on weekdays.
This also keeps his figure very good, and in 2006, a photo of bare upper body muscles didn't know how many people were fascinated.
In addition, he is also very fond of flying fighter jets, and during the second Chechen war, Putin personally flew fighter jets to inspect the front line many times.
In addition, according to people around him, Putin himself is still a very humorous person in daily life, which also makes him very approachable.
At the same time, Putin also has a high prestige in the hearts of the mainland people, and all this is also pinned on the long-standing friendly relations between the mainland and Russia.
Epilogue:
Putin's successful election to the post of the eighth president of Russia is inextricably linked to his contribution to Russia, and this is also expected by all.
The "Putin the Great", jokingly called by mainland netizens, seems to have become a reality now, but Putin's continued presidency may also have a very far-reaching impact on the cooperative relationship between the mainland and Russia.
It is believed that in the days to come, under Putin's leadership, Russia will become richer and stronger, and its cooperative and friendly relations with the mainland will also usher in a new height.
