Important revelations about the power of Vladimir Putin
Presented as the main favorite for his own succession next March, Vladimir Putin governs in a very particular way the famous fortress of Moscow.
Indeed, he is described as the president who prefers the tranquility of his residence on the Black Sea and a small revolution in habits.

On the eve of the 4th term, the attributes of power did not change, but the place of its exercise, it has moved.
