“KGB Putin meeting with his advisors today.”
“KGB Putin meeting with his generals yesterday.”
It’s like looking at a meeting at Doctor Evil’s lair where there’s only a few people present because Evil already killed the rest of them. It’s quite comical, really.
Putin looks like a sad little man hiding at a safe distance from his advisors and generals.
Man, he really is freakin’ paranoid.
This picture is possibly a staged fraud. The Russians are not given to releasing unflattering pictures of their Great Leader.
Remember that this is presumably inside the Kremlin, so photography is strictly controlled, as it would be at the White House.
