I asked Chris and others if Putin is planning on remaining the head of state after 2008, which would require changing the Constitution that bars a president from serving more than two consecutive terms, and I've been told that he is not. It will be interesting to see who will take power next and whether there will be any major policy change. -- Yoshie <http://montages.blogspot.com/> <http://mrzine.org> <http://monthlyreview.org/>
