Putin dissolves government after his inauguration - media

After Vladimir Putin's inauguration as president, the Russian government decided to resign. The current cabinet will be in the status of acting responsibilities until a new set of ministers is appointed. The powers of the Presidential Administration also automatically ended. This was reported by Radio Liberty.


According to Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, it is possible that the candidacy of a new prime minister will be presented on May 7, just as it happened in 2018, when Putin nominated his candidate an hour after he took office.


According to Russian media sources, Putin is likely to keep Mikhail Mishustin as Prime Minister.


The appointment of a new prime minister may take place in the next few days - on May 8 or 10, according to Kommersant.


As a reminder, federal ministers are appointed by the president - the security and foreign ministers after consultations with the Federation Council, while the State Duma must approve the rest on the proposal of the prime minister.
