Vladimir Putin is set to miss his annual New Year’s press conference
Speculation is rife following the break in traditional protocol, which usually sees Russia’s leader undertake a marathon press conference followed by a reception held inside the Kremlin.
This year, however, the televised event – which is usually held between December 14 and 23 and acts as a PR boosting exercise for Putin and his government – has been cancelled. The news comes amid mounting pressure from within his own country, as support for the war in Ukraine and his leadership continues to dwindle.
