Russia: ‘I wouldn’t call it a democracy, what we have is a sham election’ says Mikhail Svetov

Believe me I'd rather being ruled by Putin than the British government right now at least his outlook on illegals is much better than the UK!

I wouldn't call what we have in the UK a Democracy Either. A two-party system with both identical in Incompetence and No real vision belief or Faith in either.

The US election was better?

This man is very brave.

European democracy. Is that what you really want

Bollocks, Putin is more popular than any western leader

Got to admit. As a white English male with a russian fiancé I would absolutely rather be over there with Putin than here in the joke woke insane UK. Yeh ,might be a sham bit they're having a damn site Better time than us with non of this covid shit

Fancy people from sham democracies are calling other people's countries sham democracies oblivious to their own sham democracies. Clowns gonna clown 🤡

Putin is an oligarchy by himself, however he refuses to allow gloabilists to run over his country.
I'm sorry. For all his failings. I admire him for not sacrificing his countries culture for the benefit of a few.
And to realise that paper curency is not power.
Honour is.

The US is so democratic they even allow dead people to vote. Amazing !

Sounds much like America

Ive worked wiyh Russians, great guys and would rather live there than here.

No Different in the United States or any other western nation.

Kind of like the kind of democracy we have in Canada…

Uk is a amazing democracy

losers always moan. not allowed on the ballot with a criminal record.

Beset by flagging economies, rising debt & defeat in Afghanistan, US-led West is lashing out at Russia and China in desperation

Honestly not sure how we can really be pointing at the russian elections like it's some fraud system going on. Alot of Russians actually seemingly like Putin from experience, and for a party to lose seats they must be doing a really bad job at rigging it.

When someone in America used "democracy" to remove the only person who could stand up against Russia and China... Who is going to respect a president or PM that say "democracy" but act like a puppet of socialism/communism /marxism.

Sounds familiar...
Let's Go Brandon!

Where exactly is a democracy these days everywhere seems to be getting ever more authoritarian and freedom of speech is rapidly disappearing at least Putin is allowing his own citizens the choice whether to get vaccinated or not how many other places can you say the same about.

Democracy is a veil

Sad to see GB news submit to western propaganda. Who owns GB news?

Sounds like the UK !

democracy ? in russia ? looooool u kidding putin counts the votes thats the only reason why the scumtard is still in power he controls the ballets and then kills anyone who gets a certain amount of support

Are you discussing Australia? Doesn’t matter who you vote for…..

Russia is far ahead of the west in moral terms.

There is no democracy anywhere. A modern day fairy tale.

Democracy is a very hard thing to do. The ancient Greeks who started it, simply gave up on it, because it caused too much squabbling and conflict . It's only the British, the English in particular who managed with sheer perseverance and the corinthian spirit managed to perfect it . The Christian church brought all the previously warring groups, tribes and clans of the British Isles, together and set up a parliament where the monarch's people could in a safe nuetral place (Westminster) freely discuss, anything and everything, and every problem, could be resolved by a simple majority decision.

We have as a result the oldest continuous parliament in history. It brought the benefit of political stability and through trading economic prosperity . The British on their maritime expeditions of discovery, took the concept around the globe. It worked in some cultures, ie India but not in others, such as in Africa and the Middle east, where even today different clans, tribes, religions etc, still fight each other for dominance etc etc...

Same as the UK and USA then.

Why, did they have an election in USA in 2020?? Now the Biden regime asked Italy to keep as PM the reptilian Draghi from the swamp banksters until 2028, entirely ignoring that there will be an election on 2023...they are planning US-2020-election-style for Europe.

In US there are 500 people with opponent political views to the totalitarian liberal regime that are held in prison in inhumanly conditions ...

Got a CHEEK talking about russia !

Did he get 81 million votes...

So why do people bother voting at all?.

A bit like here in the UK then.

Democracy is an illusion

Same as the 🇬🇧, 🇺🇸, 🇦🇺 every country around the world 🌎 😑 🙄

I wanna go live there, it is a lot safer than living in the UK, at least it has a leader respected if not loved around the world while in the UK we voted in the class clown and now Russia views us as easy pickings, because we are - enrolling for Russian classes and brushing up my cv as I go jobhunting

Just like America in 2020. Let's Go Brandon!!!

Same as the U.K. and and US then.

I think there should be term limits. It isn't a good idea for a person to be in a position of power indefinitely. This also applies to people like Merkel not just Putin.

I thought this video was going to be about US election.
