The cult of personality surrounding Vladimir Putin, a former Soviet spy and who might be the richest man on Earth, keeps going from strength to strength. Despite his 15 years of Presidency many seasoned Moscow observers still feel they don’t know enough about the real Putin, named the most powerful person on Earth.
The myth surrounding him is actively propagated by public figures in Moscow. Disclose.tv recently published images of the surprisingly youthful-looking 63-year-old alongside photos of other men from 1920 and 1941. Even as for most, it is a bit of fun, the concept that Putin is immortal “and the internet has proof” with his shirtless photos, has itself been around for a while.
