BBC World Service - Newshour, What Does Putin's Victory Mean for Russia and the World?

We look at what Vladimir Putin will do with another six years in power

We look at what Vladimir Putin will do with another six years in power, following his landslide election victory.

International observers have made a string of criticisms of the Russian elections that have given President Putin another six years in power. We discuss what his victory means for Russia and the rest of the world.

Also in the programme: Britain and the EU have announced a "decisive step" towards an orderly Brexit deal; and a "game changer" in the treatment of multiple sclerosis.
