Putin thinks about a third term

Vladimir Putin announced this at a meeting with the chief editors of German and Russian media. The main thing, according to the president, is that the third term does not immediately follow the second. However, Putin said he was not sure whether he wanted this. It is very correct that Vladimir Vladimirovich already now, in 2005, was thinking about his future. This is how he set up his vertical of power. If Putin takes the risk of leaving the Kremlin in 2008, then his heir will decide what to do in 2012.
