President Putin has consistently enjoyed continued support of his

country’s military, political and economic elites, as well as Russia’s

population.

Most Russians do adore their president andcat times the world wonders why. When you delve into why the Russian people support him that

much, you realize that it dates back to the 1990s when Boris Yeltsin, the first Russian President was in power. At first sight, the

masses fell in love with him and believed that he was a strong enough man to take Russia to

the next level.

But it is in the 90s, that Russia went through numerous political, economic,

and socio-cultural upheavals.

The traditional principles, practices, and norms were dismantled and new

democratic habits put in place, which unfortunately didn’t successfully replace

the old ones. Russians view that time with so many mixed emotions with most of

them terming it the most painful period of their life.

Russia felt abused, since Boris did steal almost everything from the country, leaving it literally battered and naked. People felt like they had

had enough with his type and wanted a different personality for Boris’ successor.

In 1999, Vladimir Putin’s presidency materialized as he assumed office on

December 31, 1999, after Boris resigned and nominated him to sit in as the acting

President. Putin would then step down to allow his protégé take over, but it wasn’t long enough before he was nominated to be the

Prime Minister by Dmitry Medvedev.

In 2012, roles reversed and Putin was re-elected to the top office. Others might label him a

modern day dictator because of the vote-rigging accusations, invasion in the neighboring

territories of Georgia and Ukraine, and also the passing of the anti-liberal laws.

Putin is surrounded by fascination since he has led such an intriguing life. Right from when he began his career as a member of

the secret police, to inspiring an online comic superhero, and not forgetting his reported affair with a Russian spy and

rumored personal fortune.

Putin’s life is analogous to a captivating movie. But even with so much side shows

that make people love to hate him, why do they still choose to support and adore him?

Below are just some of the rational explanations.

Putin is a strong character and leader. Russia has a history of having formidable leaders, whether repressive or autocratic, ranging from Peter the Great to Ivan the Terrible. Putin is undoubtedly one of the strongest political leaders the world has

ever had the chance of meeting.

Putin cemented Russia’s middle class. There is no longer the popular view that Russians

are either extremely poor or super rich. Today, so many people can afford a good

ride, travel abroad, shop in designer locations, and do virtually anything else that a middle-class individual can afford to do.

Putin has immensely worked on the social welfare in Russia. Putin has touched on just almost

everything regarding the welfare reforms, from investing in healthcare, education and raising

pensions, to improving infrastructure and implementing social security laws which will

encourage families to have more children as a way of addressing the increasingly declining population.

Putin has tirelessly worked to restore Russian might. Putin has demonstrated how dedicated he is to work on the issues that matter to the Russian

people throughout his time in the top office. He has focused on upholding the integrity of Russia, pushing its untouchable influence in international relations, and also its ability to withstand the US

dictating its policies to the whole world.

Ultimately, there is no one but Vladimir Putin. Russia lacks any other viable options. There is no one who has proven that he or she can do much better and push the country further than Putin

can do. The Russian opposition is neither capable nor convincing. Putin has an insurmountable track

record of delivering on economic instability regardless of how he reached it.

That’s what the Russians care about. As they say, “the end justifies the means” and

as long as people are seeing results that positively influence them, so little

concentration is put on the negative.

Vladimir Putin is quite influential, and he has worked so hard as a staunch leader to leave such a legacy that so many people in

the world can easily relate to. This is exactly what Putin has been doing for the Russian people even if not exactly in a way

that the global world is happy about.

Putin is ready to succeed against all odds as long as he is defending the interests of his

people, even if it means jeopardizing Russia’s relationship with the international

community.
