President of the Russian Federation #VladimirPutin
Putin was born to
Vladimir Spiridonovich Putin and Maria Ivanovna in Leningrad. Senior Putin was
in the Russian navy who retired at an early age after an injury.
Putin later went on to graduate in law from
the Leningrad State University. He then got trained in the Soviet’s security.Boris Yeltsin’s
government took in Putin as the head of their Federal Security Service and a
few years after that, in 1999 Putin became the prime minister only when he was
47 years old. Although he admitted to thinking that it was a “heavy load to
bear”, he would not let go of the chance to serve his country.
It was not surprising that he was re-elected
as a prime in the year 2008, a position which he continued with until 2012. And then in 2012, he was elected as the president again. So what if Putin
wasn’t really as democratic as he promised to be and what if he often gets
accused for implementing some unfair politics.
"The world and the Russians can’t
deny that he is something of a saviour for Russia."
Wealth of President is in some Speculation therefore:
According to Forbes’ 2014 billionaires list, Putin was quoted as having wealth of up to $70 billion.

by the Daily Telegraph, detailed his personal toys, which
includes a fleet of 58 different aircraft. The bathroom on one of his planes
cost $85,000 to install, it has gold fittings.
In a CNBC report, it’s
stated that “wealth in Russia often held through shell companies, offshore
accounts and frontmen.” The New York Times reports that
Putin is a secret beneficiary to deals done involving Russian state assets and
private billionaires.
