| Sumario: | The present article focuses on analyzing the political, economical and social situation in Russia, facing the upcoming presidential transition taking place in May, in which Dmitri Medvédev will succeed the current president Vladimir Putin. The central interest of the author, resides in questioning himself if the political line established by the current president Vladimir Put in will be maintained, taking account that he could become first minister of that country. The author observes, based on the results of the parliamentarian election that took place in December, that the Russian society’s real support to President Vladimir Putin, far from being diminished, it is even duplicated.Therefore, concludes the author, the actual situation in Russia favors the continuity of Putin’s political line during the upcoming four years. The Russian electorate, after having suffered the chaos and crisis occasioned by Yeltsin’s regime, appreciates more a political regime whose main goal is to maintain order and stability, rather than a regime that could suggest greater democratic and liberal reforms. |
