"I am a FAIRLY law-abiding person."
So, not a strictly law-abiding person. Just a "fairly" law-abiding person..
Thanks for clearing that up, Vlad.
Of course, that's just the English translation of his remark, as published by NBC News. I don't have the Russian language transcript.
Among other nuggets:
Putin has not been inoculated with the Russian-made "Sputnik V" Covid vaccine because Russia has not approved it for people who have 65 or more birthdays on their resume.
quote | "I am a fairly law-abiding person," said Putin, 68, on Thursday, referring to the vaccine.
"I listen to the recommendations of our specialists. So I haven't had the shot yet. But I will absolutely do it as soon as that becomes possible," he added during a wide-ranging four-and-a-half hour call-in event when he takes questions from reporters and ordinary citizens. |

The Russian Federation's president referred to the recent poisoning of his political nemesis Alexei Navalny as (in so many words) a "false flag" operation intended to discredit the Russian Federation.
He expressed some hope that the relationship between the U.S. and the Russian Federation would improve, describing President-elect Biden as "an experienced person both in domestic and foreign policy."
He talked some about military weapons systems, nuclear weapons and nuclear weapons treaties.

Quoting a translation is not a quote. Good try though.

The new Trump "Conservatives" love Putin more than Trump.......They dislike the Constitution because it doesn't allow them to vote for their FAVORITE leader in the 'hole world......
Anyway, why would a despot- whoops, I mean a Great Christian leader- have to follow rules or laws? Those are for the little people. If Trump and his cohorts have taught us anything, it is that laws should never apply to our glorious leaders...("conservative" leaders, that is!!)

We see things from perspectives that are 180° apart.
Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton would be good examples of the type of behavior you describe.

Now reNemebr, >>CHINA!!!<< just attacked our computer systems, not Russia...because your prefect leader has told you that Russia would NEVER do anything wrong....
How did Hillary (DEEP STATE!!!) get all of those "Conservative" judges to shut Trump down? A lot of them were appointed by TRUMP!!! so why would they turn against the "Greatest leader EVER!!!"....?
Just amazing how the Hillary Deep staters have totally outsmarted all of the TRUMP!!! "Conservatives"....
(Ike and Reagan would have trump arrested for treason against the US and against Humanity)

I'm thinking Ike would have gone after the "Progressive Left". He had recently finished beating Fascists in Europe.

Joe and Hillary are career politicians. Joe has been all the way to VP or White House for 8 years each. Both are creators of this system of government that we live under. Trump still isn't a politician. cvxjet has had it his way for so long and still it isn't enough.
