Russian President Vladimir Putin’s black Labrador Koni entered the room, causing visible discomfort to former German Chancellor Angela Merkel in a notable 2007 diplomatic meeting, who has a known fear of dogs.
Widely speculated as a power move at the time, Putin recently apologized, stating he meant no harm.
The incident became a symbol of their complex relationship, sparking debates on diplomatic dynamics.
In a bold statement at the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) summit, Russian President Vladimir Putin emphasized that Russia’s missile systems are far more advanced than those supplied to Ukraine by the West. He asserted that the Iskander short-range ballistic missiles and other Russian systems, including the hypersonic Kinzhal and Zircon missiles, far surpass Western weapons like the ATACMS, Storm Shadow, and SCALP missiles. Despite Western arms deliveries to Ukraine, Putin stressed that no amount of foreign aid will alter the situation on the front lines, as Russia continues to outpace NATO in missile production. Watch the full details of this statement and the implications for the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
