The only option is to pick someone who is inclusive of multiculturalism and LGBT people.
There is small problems with “inclusive of multiculturalism” part: namely Bashkirs, Buryats, Yakuts, Udmurts and others. Russia IS multicultural.
You can’t replace far-right with another far-right, it will still be worse.
24 years of “not getting worse”. Oligarch’s yachts are not getting worse for sure, but what about citizens?
American “left” says they will ask for partial debt relief maybe eventually, while Russian right demands increase funding of education, healthcare, social welfare and scientific research, tenfolding wages of teachres, doctors, feldshers, nurses, peofessors and public transit drivers. Along with providing students food, housing, decent stipend, decent pension for retired and more because if state can afford to pay endless hoard of polizai it sure can pay all mentioned before. And always-present anti-corruption stance because he was investigating it for last 10 years.
His presidency campaign also had redusing presidency term back to 4 years, full transition from conscript army to contract army, declassifying everything FSB did and lustrations, reducing president’s power, increasing parlament power, nationalization of assets of oligarchs that participated in loan auction or corruption.
Finally stopping paying Kadirov, returning army from Syria and other far-right isolatioanism stuff.
