- Limit the presidency to two terms, regardless of whether they were served back-to-back.
- Tighten restrictions on presidential candidates, including banning them from holding second citizenship or permanent residency abroad and requiring them to have lived in Russia for 25 years.
- Prioritize the Russian Constitution over international treaties and other acts.
- Make the State Council an official governing body to set the direction of foreign, domestic and economic policy. The State Council would become something like a collective presidency
