The State Duma proposed to rename the President of Russia into the ruler

The Liberal Democratic Party proposed replacing the term “president” with “ruler” until the foreign title of the position “has taken root completely.” About this on Sunday, July 10, reported RIA Novosti in the press service of the faction.

As noted in the party, the title of the post of head of state has always embarrassed them. Representatives of the Liberal Democratic Party explained that the term “president” in the sense of the head of the executive branch was first used in the United States only at the end of the 18th century. Later, the title of the position spread throughout the world. “In our country, by historical standards, this is generally a new word, and until it takes root completely, you can safely replace it,” the Liberal Democratic Party is sure.
