The prediction that Vladimir Putin will remain President of Russia through 2023 hinges on his continued authority without interruption from a specific date range. One market considers the period from June 12, 2023, to December 31, 2023, with an exact resolution at 11:59 PM ET, while others focus on the broader timeframe from January 1, 2024, forward. The outcome is determined by Scott Alexander's judgment in a contest setting or through credible reporting from reliable sources like the CIA World Factbook. Resolution criteria include direct evidence of Putin's continued presidency and consensus among reputable news outlets. A market resolution will declare Putin either president through 2023 or not.
