Russia's president-elect, Dmitry Medvedev, has insisted he will be making the key decisions in his power-sharing deal with Vladimir Putin.
Mr Medvedev won a landslide election victory this month and will replace Mr Putin, who is expected to become his prime minister, in May.
The president-elect told the Financial Times newspaper that the president and government had clearly defined roles.
He praised Mr Putin for adhering to the constitution in serving just two terms.
Russia's new president, Medvedev, is clearly defining the roles that will be played by himself and Putin. The roles are supposedly very different. He also assure everyone that he will be the one making the important decisions. It will be inresting to see if this is really true.
