MOSCOW, June 7—RIA Novosti—Russian President Vladimir Putin said that faith in communism was lost, but not by all, there are still many supporters of the legal communist party, and this should also be treated with respect.
“Faith in communism was lost, but not by everyone. Otherwise, we would not have a legal party of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation. And she has a lot of supporters. And that’s a fact. And this should be treated, in my opinion, also with respect,” Putin said during the plenary session of SPIEF-2024.
The St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) takes place from June 5 to 8. RIA Novosti is an information partner of the forum.
