普京第四次宣誓就任俄罗斯总统

自1999年以来一直担任俄罗斯总统或总理的普京星期一在克里姆林宫的装饰华丽的安德列耶夫斯基大厅宣誓就任,这是他第四次担任总统。普京说:“我认为这是我的责任,我的人生目标是竭尽全力为俄罗斯的现在和未来做贡献。”

除非俄罗斯修改现在禁止总统超过两届连任的宪法,否则普金将无法第五次再任总统。

普京在最近一个任期内的作为包括从乌克兰吞并克里米亚,并与叙利亚领导人阿萨德合作在叙利亚进行军事行动。

Russia's Putin Sworn In for Fourth Term

Vladimir Putin, who has been either president or prime minister of Russia since 1999, was sworn in for a fourth term as president Monday at the Grand Kremlin Palace's ornately-decorated Andreyevsky Hall. Putin said, "I consider it my duty and my life's aim to do everything possible for Russia, for its present and for its future."

He will not be able to run for a fifth term as president unless there is a change to Russia's constitution which prohibits more than two consecutive terms.

Putin annexed Crimea from Ukraine during his most recent term and also partnered with Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad for a military campaign in Syria.
