Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin on Tuesday pledged a major reshuffle of federal government and regional governors after presidential elections in March.
Putin, who is expected to return to the Kremlin in next year’s polls, said the first step - a reshuffle of the lower house - had been achieved after Sunday’s parliamentary elections.
“The next stage, after the presidential elections, is the formation of a cabinet. Of course the government personnel will be seriously changed, and a change of the gubernatorial corps will also follow,” the premier said.
