Russian President Vladimir Putin has been at the helm of the country since 2000, having served as both head of state and prime minister during this time. However, his last six-year term is expected to end in 2024.
Vladimir Putin said that his presidency is more than just a job for him and should rather be treated as his “destiny”, Russian media revealed.

During the meeting, he also thanked people for their support during his four terms as president and time as prime minister.
Putin first assumed office in 2000 and served as president until May 2008. He then assumed the role of Russian prime minister during Dmitry Medvedev’s presidency until being re-elected as president in 2012.
Putin is now serving his fourth presidential term and is expected to step down in 2024. He recently suggested amendments to the Russian constitution to limit the number of presidential terms someone can serve, suggesting that two should be the overall maximum.
