/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The lower house of Russia's parliament is set to
approve outgoing president Vladimir Putin as prime minister on May 8,
State Duma speaker Boris Gryzlov said on Monday.
Russia's president-elect Dmitry Medvedev is to be inaugurated on May 7,
replacing Putin, who has ruled Russia for eight years.
"The necessity of soonest appointment was dictated by the idle
atmosphere in the presidential administration," Gryzlov said. "We
are looking forward to both the inauguration on May 7, and May 8,
when we will approve Vladimir Putin's candidacy for premier."
In line with the Russian Constitution, the Cabinet must be dissolved on
the day of the president's inauguration. Following his inauguration,
the new president has two weeks to put forward a candidacy for the
post of prime minister. The newly appointed premier, in turn, has a
week to form a new government, RIA Novosti reports
