Post-Putin Russia might not mean transformation - Eastern Express - TVP WORLD

What happens after Vladimir Putin leaves power? In this episode, our host Jonasz Rewiński and his guest, Rasmus Nilsson, Lecturer of Slavic and East European Studies at University College London, examine the structural forces shaping Russia’s future beyond its current leader. From elite infighting to economic strain and national identity, the constraints are deeper than they appear. Expectations of rapid change may collide with a system designed for continuity. The end of Putin may not mean a new Russia.
