Vladimir Putin seeks fifth term as Russian President as election enters final day | BBC News


Vladimir Putin is set to secure a fifth term as president of Russia, as the tightly-controlled election enters a final day.

With his credible opponents jailed, exiled, or dead, there is little doubt that Putin will secure another six years as president.

Meanwhile, the leader of Estonia, which borders Russia, warned that while Putin is good at "sowing fear", his threats must also be taken seriously.

Prime Minister, Kaja Kallas called on European countries to bolster support for Ukraine, warning that war could expand "very fast in Europe, so no country is left untouched" if Vladimir Putin wins.
