Content:
In Russia, the year 2020 will be marked domestically by a profound transformation of the political system, including the continuation of a fundamental change of generations, extensive cadre rotations, aggravation of elite conflicts and preparations for a constitutional reform with a view to regulating the succession of Vladimir Putin in the office of president and the associated transition of power in 2024. The power system created by Vladimir Putin over the past two decades is slowly but fundamentally and irrevocably changing. Post-Putin Russia is already a reality. The search for an appropriate position for Vladimir Putin for the time after 2024 in the spirit of Deng Xiaoping or Lee Kuan Yew is in full swing. But even a post-Putin Russia is likely to retain Vladimir Putin for a long time to come.
The panel will discuss the issue of the current power transition dynamics and possible implications on internal and foreign policies of the Russian Federation.
The Discussion will be held in English.
The IIP and EURAS invite to snacks and drinks after the event!
