Vladimir Putin has begun another six-year term as Russia's president, marking nearly a quarter-century in power. The inauguration ceremony, held on May 7, saw Putin place his hand on the constitution, symbolizing the start of his new term. This event underscores his continued hold on extraordinary power within the country. Putin's leadership style, characterized by a paranoid worldview and a push towards a society with pro-war activism and puritanical values, has been critiqued for leading Russia towards potential instability and diminishing social rights. Critics argue that the ceremony creates an illusion of legitimacy for his almost lifelong stay in power.
