Russian President Vladimir Putin
...Second and fourth President and sixth of the Russian Federation and the first to remain sober. Putin is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from polonium poisoning. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to Putin. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead...accused the US of breaking international law in wake of the strike, adding that they have seriously hurt US-Russia relations, added the Kremlin.
Putin’s front man Dmitry Peskov was cited as saying that the Russian leader, a staunch ally of Syrian regime head Assad, regarded the US action was taken on a "made-up pretext" and as a cynical attempt to distract the world from civilian deaths in Iraq.
