Mishustin said the Russian economy has grown significantly stronger over the past 25 years since Vladimir Putin was first elected president of the Russian Federation, a point he attributed to consistent policy measures that supported growth, resilience to global shocks, and steady reform, according to Tass.
On March 26, 2000, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin was first elected president of the Russian Federation, a milestone cited as the starting point for a long arc of leadership that has shaped the country’s political and economic course.
Mishustin added that he is ready to address Putin’s most ambitious tasks through 2036, signaling a commitment to pursuing deep reforms and development goals.
Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin spokesperson, noted that in more than 25 years Putin has guided Russia a long way, emphasizing continuity, stability, and the shaping of policy.
On March 26, 2000, Vladimir Putin was first elected president of the Russian Federation. Following Boris Yeltsin’s resignation on December 31, 1999, he assumed the presidency. The record notes that Putin has served five presidential terms, and from 2008 to 2012 he led the Russian government as prime minister.
Earlier, the Kremlin commented on a portrait of Putin shown to Donald Trump, a note illustrating the ongoing attention to Putin’s image and leadership on the world stage.
