Putin says Russia will not be held back or intimidated, as he’s set for another six years in office
Russian President Vladimir Putin says his country will not be intimidated – as he welcomed an election victory that puts him on course to be the longest serving Russian leader in more than 200 years.
Russians abroad have been voting in the election and they’ve been able to express their opposition to President Vladimir Putin.
Polling also took place in Ukrainian territories under Russian control.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says those votes are illegal.
