Putin to Hold 'Direct Line' Q&A Session, Annual Press Conference
MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Russian President Vladimir Putin will hold "Direct Line," an annual question and answer session, as well as his 18th annual press conference on Thursday.
The event will start at 12 a.m. Moscow time (09:00 GMT) and is expected to continue for three to four hours. It will be the Russian president's first "Direct Line" session since June 2021.
This year, it will take place ahead of the start of
Putin's election campaign as he has announced his intention to run for president again in March 2024. The agenda of the press conference is expected to include Putin's election program and focus on the economic development and security, including collective global security, as well as issues related to nuclear weapons.
According to the Kremlin, over 2 million questions have been submitted for the event.
