🔴President Putin did not use an umbrell at a soldier's funeral. When asked about it,
he replied:

'This soldier died in battle, gave his life for his homeland, died with honor and you ask me why I'm here and pay tribute to him?

I'm not made of paper or sugar, nothing will happen to me because I'm outdoors or I'll get wet, this man deserves 5 minutes of my full respect.'

🗣Never thought, growing up in America, there would be a day where I would find myself so positively moved by the actions of another country's leader, while being so simultaneously disgusted by the actions of my own.

President Putin is an intelligent leader of a great and proud nation. It's the media that made you doubt him. It's the media that made you doubt the Russian people. President Putin deserves respect in several ways. When president Trump said about his Russian colleague: 'he's a smart guy', he meant every word of it.

Communism made me doubt the Russian people. However, they have made some changes based on their Orthodox faith and capitalism.
