Russian President Vladimir Putin has submitted a proposal to the State Duma, the lower house of Russia, to appoint Mikhail Mishustin as Russia's Prime Minister, State Duma speaker Vyacheslav Volodin announced on Friday.

He highlighted that it is important to receive answers to questions about demography, technological sovereignty, economic development, and defense capability when discussing the candidacy for the post of prime minister.

The discussion of the candidacy for the post of prime minister will take place in all factions of the parliament, and the State Duma's session will begin at 2 pm Moscow time (11:00 GMT), Volodin said.

He mentioned that Mishustin will first report to the lower house and answer questions raised by lawmakers, and the vote on the candidacy will follow.

The head of the State Duma's labor committee, Yaroslav Nilov, said on Friday that he supports Mishustin's candidacy for the premiership and expressed the belief that his colleagues in the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia (LDPR) will also support Mishustin.

"I fully support the president's proposal. Over the years, Mikhail Vladimirovich has repeatedly confirmed in practice his managerial competence in the most difficult and crisis situations," Nilov said on Telegram.

Putin was sworn in as the Russian President in the Kremlin on Tuesday and will hold office for the next six years.

After the inauguration, the Russian cabinet headed by Mishustin resigned in accordance with the law. The candidacy for premiership will be approved at the State Duma's session later on Friday.
