Is Russian President Vladimir Putin setting himself up to be "president for life?" "Clearly, Russia is not an active democracy and Vladimir Putin wants to ensure that he remains at the reign of things," he added. Wachtel pointed out that Putin was popular in "many circles" but some are fed up with the former KGB operative. You know, what the public in Russia consumes is very different from what we get to see [is] happening in the world," Wachtel said. Wachtel said "there is potential" that Putin will "swap in" and become president again, as he has before.
