Perhaps this is no longer the same Putin, who knows? However, the photos from the early 2010s and earlier are real. One of our authors was working for a Dutch newspaper at the time and was in the presidential pool and noticed that his face was changing. Perhaps the reason is Botox and other procedures.

That's right. It's a remote village of Tatar Muslims in Siberia.
