The material was dedicated to the "traditional seminar for deputy governors" taking place in the Moscow region, organized by the so-called administration of the President of the Russian Federation (AP RF).
In addition to discussing the upcoming elections and other topics, the work on the "image of victory" was also addressed.
A source from "Kommersant" mentioned that "the AP believes that the end of the 'SVO' will come, and preparations must be made for it."
Attendees of the seminar noted that the Kremlin wants the outcomes of the war to be perceived by Russian society "as a victory," even though different social groups (specifically "angry patriots" and "liberals") already have varying interpretations of it.
From the Kremlin's perspective, the focus should be on the "calm majority" of Russians, who "will be satisfied with the achievements of the goals set by the [illegitimate] president [of Russia, Vladimir Putin]—namely, the [denazification and demilitarization of Ukraine,] as well as retaining new territories for Russia."
In the aggressor country, "new territories" typically refer to the Ukrainian regions of Crimea, Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson, part of which is occupied by Russia.
"Vedomosti" also reports on the "Kremlin" seminar for regional authorities, noting that one of the speakers was Sergey Kiriyenko – the first deputy head of Putin's administration.
Sources from the publication claim that the seminar included discussions about the situation in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation, where the Armed Forces of Ukraine are carrying out their military operations. Specifically, they examined the actions of local authorities and concluded that there were "communication errors" on their part.
