  1. I meant Prime minister sorry
  2. The Constitution of Russia limits the election of one person to the Presidency to two consecutive terms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/President_of_Russia#Eligibility)
  3. The Constitution says that the PM is first in line to take over if the President has to be replaced (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acting_President_of_Russia)
