Assuming it's true:
(1) He just made every spy agency that follows Putin and knows his every movement look totally inept
(2) Security and privacy for mommy and the young one
(3) If it's true, he's grabbed the world's attention again as the virile guy who strips to the waist to go horseback riding
I have no opinion whether it's true or false. But either way, it's pretty funny that Putin can just disappear.
