Sounds familiar.
Putin served two terms (2000-2008), then one as prime minister (2008-2012) because the Constitution only allowed two consecutive terms. Then the terms were lengthened to six years and he served an additional two terms (2012-2024), during which the Constitution was amended to specify two terms in total, except for terms prior to the amendment. Thus he's now in his fifth and likely sixth terms (2024-2036).
