Sheikh Hasina greets Vladimir Putin

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina conveyed her heartfelt congratulation to Vladimir Putin on his reelection as the President of Russia.

The information was confirmed from the Prime Minister’s Press Wing on Thursday (March 21).

President Vladimir Putin won a record post-Soviet landslide victory in Russia’s election for the fifth term on Sunday (March 17).

According to a report of Al Jazeera on March 17, Russian President Vladimir Putin cemented his grip on power in a landslide election victory that has been widely criticised as lacking democratic legitimacy.

In a post-election news conference, Putin cast the outcome as a vindication of his decision to defy the West and invade Ukraine.
