Installed as leader of Russia? (3,2)
I believe the answer is:
put in
This could be a double definition.
'installed' is the first definition.
(put in can mean to install)
'leader of russia?' is the second definition.
'put in' can be an answer for 'leader' (I have seen 'Russian leader ' mean 'put in' so perhaps 'leader' could also mean 'put in'). I'm not sure about the 'of russia?' bit.
'as' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for put in that I've seen before include "rugby move?" , "Russian leader" , "Submit" , "Russian president" , "being asked to bat" .)
