>That must be why Putin likes to kiss little boys on the stomach.<
Here’s the facts, but I doubt you’re interested.
“His grandmother Valentina, who pushed him (Nikita Konkin) in front of the Russian president, recalled the excitement of the day, and said the president was “very highly regarded” in their family.
“Nikita was reportedly so besotted with the kiss at the time that he refused to wash his stomach afterwards, according to Russian daily newspaper Izvestia, which tracked the boy down after the kiss occurred.
“He reportedly told Izvestia that the pair had mutual affection for one another, and he wishes to be president someday.”
Putin is the President of Russia, therefore, in the eyes of most Russians, Putin is their Father (just as they looked upon the Czars as their Fathers), so looking through their eyes, we see a Father showing affection to his Children. It’s a symbolic gesture, nothing perverted.
If globohomo Zelensky kissed a boy’s tummy on camera, Zeepers would claim it’s a cherished, entirely wholesome, Slavic tradition.
Thanks, it’s generally the people that ‘like’ little boys who cannot stop posting that picture.
