Putin becomes Russian PM in leadership 'tandem'
以"串联"领导方式,普京成为俄罗斯总理
Moscow - Vladimir Putin will retain a "key role" in Russia for years as prime minister, new President Dmitry Medvedev said Thursday, as the two men opened an unprecedented era of dual rule.
莫斯科讯：俄罗斯新总统梅德韦杰夫周四表示，普京将作为总理继续在今后几年的俄罗斯政坛担任重要角色，这两人开启了前所未有的双人执政时代。

周四，莫斯科和格鲁吉亚也显示出了高度紧张的局势，格鲁吉亚的总统警告说近来两国关系已经到了临战的地步。
Putin was confirmed as prime minister by 392 of the 448 deputies at an extraordinary session of the lower house of parliament, the State Duma, one day after Medvedev was inaugurated at a lavish Kremlin ceremony.
在梅德韦杰夫在克林姆林宫奢华典礼上就职后一天，普京在下议院也就是杜马国会的特别议会中以448票中392票的绝对优势当选总理。
