The Russian president will answer questions from journalists and ordinary people on subjects ranging from foreign policy to the economy
Russian President Vladimir Putin is holding a traditional event summarizing the results of the year, which will focus on questions from regular people and journalists, including those from Western countries.
Ahead of the session, the call center has collected over two million questions and requests, which have been processed with the help of AI. According to Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, issues related to the Ukraine conflict, transport infrastructure and economic development are high on the list. He added that many of the requests are already being addressed by relevant ministries and officials.
The event is being attended by a large number of journalists, whose questions mainly concern the international agenda, Peskov said. He added that a few Western reporters will be present as well.
Putin has regularly held such year-end events since 2001, with a few exceptions. Last year, the session lasted more than four hours and the Russian president responded to more than 80 questions and requests.
