職稱/俄羅斯聯邦總統
年齡/70歲

在蘇聯垮台前是一名派駐東德的低階特工。柏林圍牆倒塌後回到俄羅斯，跟隨恩師一起進入政壇，被時任俄羅斯聯邦總統的葉爾欽相中，提拔為總理，最終於2000年正式登上總統之位。普丁於東德目睹民粹主義帶來的動盪，及莫斯科末期的權力真空，奠基了他日後對俄羅斯的統治方針。他將媒體權力收回政府手中，並取消地方首長選舉，改由中央推舉名單。俄羅斯原為半總統制，但實際上總統和總理的職權皆掌握在他手中。
2020年俄羅斯舉行修憲公投，以佔總票數78%的壓倒性同意票加強普丁的執政權力，且直接將普丁過去20年的執政期數「歸零」，他將能一路做到2036年為止。

Title: President of the Russian Federation

Age: 70 years old

Formerly a low-level special agent stationed in East Germany prior to the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, Vladimir Putin returned to Russia after the Berlin Wall came down and followed his mentor into politics, where he was promoted to Prime Minister by Boris Yeltsin, the President of the Russian Federation at that time, before finally becoming the President in 2000. Experiences like witnessing the turmoil brought about by populism and the power vacuum in Moscow towards the end laid the foundation for Putin’s ruling policy later in Russia. He took back government power from the media, canceled elections for local governments, and replaced them with central government appointees. Despite the original shared power system practiced in Russia, Putin actually holds both the authority of the President and the Prime Minister. 

A constitutional referendum in 2020 saw an overwhelming 78% approval rating in support of Putin’s continued right to rule as president for another 20 years until 2036 if reelected.
