I expect most of you will have heard about this because it's been flying around for a couple of weeks, and everyone else won't be surprised, but...

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/nov/06/russia-dmitry-medvedev-vladimir-putin

Apparently 4 years isn't good enough; the Kremlin's going for six-year stints now.

Quote:
 
Analysts suggested that the most obvious beneficiaries of the move would be Medvedev or Putin, now the prime minister, who could return as president in 2012 - and then extend his stint in power to 2024. Russia's present ruling team would remain in power indefinitely, they added.

I don't know whether to be afraid for the future or make up more Chuck Norris-style "facts" about Putin. :NomNomNom:

The nuke part is honestly a little jarring.
