What does Russian President Vladimir Putin believe about God? That’s a fascinating question the world can’t answer “with any certainty,” according to Mark Tooley, president of The Institute on Religion and Democracy. After all, there’s a difference between what Putin says and what he does — and there’s strangely a great deal of uncertainty and confusion intermingled with both. In an interview with TIME magazine for their "Person of the Year" cover story in 2007, Putin was asked about his religion. Here's how he responded: TIME: One of the issues that is being discussed in our presidential election is the role of faith in government. पुतिन को कई बार बड़े धार्मिक त्योहारों और प्रार्थना सभाओं में देखा जाता है, जैसे जनवरी 2025 में मॉस्को में हुई रूढ़िवादी क्रिसमस सेवा. पुतिन रूस को ऐसे देश के रूप में दिखाते हैं जो ईसाई धर्म और पुराने नैतिक मूल्यों का रक्षक है. रूस में लगभग 14.2 करोड़ लोग रहते हैं, जो कई तरह के धर्मों को मानते हैं. Under Putin's rule, the Russian political system has been transformed into an authoritarian dictatorship with a personality cult.
