A new initiative has been launched in the Max messenger, allowing Russian citizens of any age and from any region to send questions to the country's President Vladimir Putin. With the help of the "Year-End with V. Putin" chatbot, users will be able to forward their messages in the form of video or text.
The collection of questions began on December 4 at 15:00 Moscow time and will last until December 19, 2025.
To ask the President a question, you need to follow a few steps:
- Find the "Year-End with V. Putin" chatbot in the messenger search or follow the link max.ru/moskvaputinu.
- Start the service by clicking on the "Start" button.
- Enter your phone number for feedback.
- Enter your full name, locality, age and, if desired, email address.
- Upload a video message or write a text question.
Questions will be sent to the editorial office of the "Year-End with Vladimir Putin" program, and feedback will be sent to the contact specified by the user. A link to the online broadcast of the press conference and the President's main comments will appear in the "Kremlin.News" channel in Max.
