Fareed Zakaria, as a host on CNN, is known to misquote Putin as well as misrepresent Russia's intentions to the world. At the St Petersburg Economic Forum 2016, Zakaria wasn't going to get away with that very easily...

Oh my Gosh, that was wonderful! I really like Putin. He's smart, he's concise, he's articulate, he's got wit, a dry sense of humor to help make his point, and what I like most about Putin, is what I love about Trump. They both care about their countries. They put their own countries first, their own people first, Putin may have been KGB Brutal at one point, that's the way it was there then, Trump is different on that level, but they both fight for their own nations and this is the tie that will bind US under a Trump Presidency to better relations with Russia and to quote Putin "a more secure world."

The brainwashed uneducated Media filled with the likes of Fareed and thousands of other idiots with degrees, don't get it until someone talks them down. Putin did that as well as anyone could have.

Vladimir Putin has been named the 2014 Person of the Year by the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP), an award given annually to the person who does the most to enable and promote organized criminal activity.

Excerpt:

Corruption by Russian President Vladimir Putin and his administration in Moscow has produced tens of billions of dollars worth of illicit funds for the Russian leader and his top aides, according to U.S. officials.
Putin is estimated to have amassed a fortune worth at least an estimated $28 billion through kickbacks from projects like construction at the Sochi Winter Olympic games, holdings in Russian real estate and energy conglomerates, and kickbacks from deals with associates going back to the late 1990s.

Excerpt:

A U.S. Treasury official said the United States considers Russian President Vladimir Putin to be corrupt and that it has known this for “many, many years,” the BBC reported on Monday.

Adam Szubin, acting Treasury secretary for terrorism and financial crimes, said in an interview with BBC Panorama that the Russian president has been amassing secret wealth.

“We’ve seen him enriching his friends, his close allies and marginalizing those who he doesn’t view as friends using state assets. Whether that’s Russia’s energy wealth, whether it’s other state contracts, he directs those to whom he believes will serve him and excludes those who don’t. To me, that is a picture of corruption,” Szubin was quoted as saying.

The BBC report said Szubin declined to comment on a 2007 Central Intelligence Agency report that estimated Putin's wealth at $40 billion, but he said the Russian leader's stated wealth is an underestimation.

“He supposedly draws a state salary of something like $110,000 a year,” Szubin said. “That is not an accurate statement of the man’s wealth, and he has longtime training and practices in terms of how to mask his actual wealth.”

I don't profess to be all knowledgeable about Putin, but where there is so much smoke, there is normally fire. The internet is full of these stories. Seems to me we should not be making Putin out to be something he is obviously not.

I would be careful using that "we", MW. I stand by my post, you're free to take a different position but do not link it with me or "we" when you're speaking for yourself. Thank you.

The point of the video was his technique and the stupid leading questions put out by Fareed Zakaria of CNN. It was amusing to see Zakaria put down so soundly and I would have enjoyed it had it been done by Don Corleone himself.
