In hotly contested elections with accusations of fraud, former President and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin is once again President of Russia. This is a continuation of the slide back to dictatorial status of the Russian government (though in reality, that's only like a 1 foot long slide). Putin's opponents have vowed to challenge the result, but I have little faith that they will be able to prove the allegations of corruption as long as Putin has anything to say about it, nor would he willingly surrender power even if they could.
