“They are not very happy with this,” Putin said, but gave no details of what exactly his wife and daughters told him after he made his decision.

“This is a private matter, let me not talk about this,” said the incumbent prime minister, who won with 63.6 percent of the vote in the March 4 presidential election.

Putin’s wife Lyudmila has rarely been seen in public of late. His daughters Maria and Yekaterina stay out of public eye.
