Why can Russian citizens support Putin for 20 years?

Putin hopes to restore the Soviet superpower status, which is also the reason why Putin has ruled Russia for a long time.

Putin has been the leader of Russia for 19 years in a row, and he himself hopes to stay in Russia for a long time to make Russia strong again. The political allies and economic oligarchs behind him are also very willing to let Putin rule for a long time, which is why Putin has ruled Russia for a long time. Putin has served as Russian leader 19 since 2000, president of Russia for 8 years from 2000 to 2008, prime minister of Russia for 4 years from 2008 to 20 12, and president of Russia for 6 years from 20 12 to 20 18. Putin's long-term experience in Russia is second only to Stalin's long-term rule of the Soviet Union.

It can be said that after Putin became Russian president, Russia was a mess. At that time, Russia's economy has been declining, and the living standards of the Russian people have been declining. Putin punished the oligarchs who controlled the lifeline of Russia's economy and increased Russia's economic income. In the first eight years of Putin's administration, the Russian economy grew at an annual rate of 6.5%. Russia's labor force and national income are increasing. Putin bought a large number of advanced weapons, thus improving the combat effectiveness of the Russian army. It took Putin eight years to return Russia to the world power.

Putin is indeed ambitious. He strengthened his control over the CIS countries. He also launched military threats against anti-Russian countries, and Putin launched the second Chechen war shortly after he took office. During the Chechen war, Europe, America and western countries provided a large number of advanced weapons and night vision equipment to Chechen separatists through Georgia. This caused heavy losses to the Russian army, and Putin was very depressed about the deployment of Georgian and Russian troops in South Ossetia. With the acquiescence of European and American countries, Georgia launched a military attack and killed many Russian soldiers. After learning about this, Putin sent tens of thousands of Russian troops to defeat the Georgian army. Putin's military actions show that all countries in the world are harming Russia's national interests, and Russia will use military force to punish countries that harm Russia's interests.
