Funny coincidence that Yeltsin, looking drunk, suddenly announces that Putin will take over as president. No elections, just an immediate change of president.

(As you see Putin was NOT initially elected democratically. He made a covert coup d'état.) |
Yeltsin surrendered his presidency (yes he was fucking drunk puppet and I think had no choice, but to leave ). But dude open Wiki and read:
" Acting President on 31 December 1999 when Yeltsin resigned unexpectedly. Putin won the subsequent 2000 presidential election and was re-elected in 2004. "
He was elected as president by the constitution.
