Analysis: Putin's Challenges This Summer
August in Russia is historically associated with major events that led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union, wars, and economic and political crises. It is called "Black August" or the "Cursed August." This month often witnesses pivotal events, such as the 1991 attempt to overthrow Gorbachev, the 1998 financial crisis, the Chechen War, the Siege of the Kerch Bridge, and the 2008 Georgia conflict.

Meanwhile, Putin maintains his stance in the face of these challenges.
