On March 18, Russia's Central Election Commission confirmed that Putin won reelection by a landslide.

He reportedly received over 87% of the vote.

Countries that congratulated him include Cuba, Honduras, Nicaragua, North Korea, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Venezuela.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Putin is "sick with power and is doing everything in his power to rule forever.".
