“The work on the constitutional amendments introduced by the president obliges us to a lot, we must now actually switch to a round-the-clock regime,” Volodin quoted RIA Novosti as saying.

The State Duma speaker noted that on Thursday, January 23, if possible, it is planned to consider the bill.

Earlier, a spokesman for the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov said that any initiatives proposed by Russian President Vladimir Putin are implemented in priority order, this also applies to amendments to the Constitution.

On January 20, Putin introduced a bill to the State Duma on amendments to the country's main law.
