www.nytimes.com/live/2024/03/17/world/russia-election-putin-ukraineVyacheslav Chernolobov, 27, a doctoral student, said he had voted for Mr. Putin out of a desire for the United States to wield less power globally.
Speaking in fluent English, he denigrated “the U.S.A.-backed new world order” and said that Russians see Mr. Putin “as the pinnacle of such urges to dethrone the hegemon.”
He added, “And that’s what I voted for, obviously, because our hearts are united in the struggle against the atrocities of NATO, and the U.S.A. is the chief proponent of that world.”
