On Thursday, June 6, a journalist from Komsomolskaya Pravda asked the official representative of the Kremlin the following questions…
… – Dmitry Sergeevich, I would like to return to one of Vladimir Putin’s statements yesterday at a meeting with the heads of major international news agencies. I won’t touch on the most acute ones, but simply: when the president was asked how he felt about the caricatures of him published in the Western media, he laughed… (And he is portrayed “as a villain.”) He said: “That’s right , be afraid.” Why doesn’t the press secretary show Putin these crafts?
“There are many of the same type and few talented ones (caricatures of the President of Russia. – AG),” said Peskov. – We definitely show the talented.
– Is this how you feel about them (cartoons)? – I clarified.
“Yes,” the press secretary confirmed. “That’s how we treat it.”
