So that still sounds like he's trying to take the power with him... What am I still missing? Ur replies still haven't changed my original thought I'm trying to understand what exactly ur saying. I'm not an expert on Russian politics so if I'm misinterpreting something explain in detail Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like, he plans to become a Head of Federation Council, which is upper house of the Parliament. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's more or less what I was thinking That if he leaves his position he doesn't want someone else to take the power he wants to keep as much as possible Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just read a list of constitutional changes Putin talked about, and it looks like he's about to give more power exactly for upper house of Parliament.

RAMROD 117,378 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I am assuming he is trying to pull what Xi Jinping does, that is abolish elections, and become a leader for as long as he lives, with his own way.

Previously, Constitution of China established, that one person cannot be Head of China for more than two consecutive terms. Now there's no such rule, that is way Xi Jinping is still a Head of Chine. As for Russia, it's Constitution establishes, that one person can't be a President for more than two consecutive terms. Now, Putin says that one person will not be able to be a President for more than two terms (not consecutive). So it seems like Putin will be a leader as long as he lives, but not as President of RF.

Chuckles 2,549 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I would like the perspective from the citizens of Russia on this matter. Aren't they just tired of the same person in power for the last 20 years? Has the country improved under Putin? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a scary man Putin Is a "King" … basically He could appoint himself as a deity. The point I think is that its too big for one man to run the country of Russia so he just changes the gov. around and the rules so he can stay in power while everyone else does the dirty work.... like a cat in a sil, I observe life, moving and still. My words give a clue,look inside to see whats true Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other countries both the head of state and head of goverment is the president (USA,Brazil....) Putin wants to shift the power from president to prime minister after 2024 when he isn't allowed to be president anymore and expects to become prime minister So basically he wants to continue with his power changing the power he has of right to the future position as a Prime Misnisyer of Russia So he will always be in Power 🤖 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
