The draft bill, currently in parliament, would give any former president immunity from criminal prosecution committed during his lifetime

It is the second bill this week to address special provisions for former Russian presidents, further fuelling speculation of an imminent resignation.

@Kiwiwomble wonder if he has a holiday home in Crimea. Visited and loved the vibe so much he invaded!
