The current President of Russia is Vladimir Putin.
Some experts believe Prime Minister Vladimir Putin remains Russia's real leader. Medvedev, Putin's hand-picked successor, proposed the changes in November, starting with the next president. The new law extends the term of the president from four years to six. Medvedev also signed a law extending the term of members of the lower house of parliament, the Duma, from four years to five. Putin stepped down as president in May after two terms and is now prime minister.
