There is a whole range of potential successors to Putin. Traditional version – the current Prime Minister of Russia Dmitry Medvedev. But he has one big problem.
This opinion was expressed by Russian political analyst and publicist Stanislav Belkovsky in an interview with TSN.
According to him, Dmitry Medvedev seriously abusing alcohol. But he remains a political son of Vladimir Putin.
“In this sense, a certain amount of trust between them is maintained. It was hard to find someone who would have refused the presidency in favor of his political father. But Medvedev this person was, so his main problem is alcohol,” – said Belkovsky.
In his opinion, if Dmitry Medvedev wins his addiction to alcohol, then he will be able to show themselves.
I think that if the best drug in the world will lead Dmitry to, by the end of the year it will be quite suitable for presidential elections, – said the analyst.
The publicist said that they are also contenders for the successor to the Chairman of the Federation Council Valentina Matvienko and the group of guards of Vladimir Putin: the Governor of Tula region Alexey Dyumin and the Governor of the Yaroslavl region Dmitry Mironov.
