Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, the Defender of the West and of Christendom, has been re-elected President of the Russian Federation. He will remain in power until at least 2024, having served for 20 years. He will not be able to run again in 2024 unless the Constitution is amended, but that's never stopped him in the past. Medvedev could always serve for another four years and then Putin could run again. There's no absolute term limit for President of Russia, they just can't serve for more than two consecutive terms.
Putin received 76.69% of the vote, followed a very distant second by Communist Party candidate Pavel Grudinin with 11.77%.
