“Russia’s parliament has proposed resetting President Vladimir Putin’s term limits as part of sweeping constitutional changes, allowing him to remain in office potentially until at least 2036,” the Financial Times reports.
New York Times: “After lawmakers voiced support for the idea, Mr. Putin arrived in person at the State Duma to say he agreed with it, in what appeared to be a tightly choreographed course of events. Mr. Putin said he believed he should have the right to run again for the sake of Russia’s stability, even though future presidents should continue to be bound by a two-term limit.”
