Russia's Putin a kleptomaniac, new book alleges

  • 12 years ago
http://www.nma.tv/ Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin occasionally likes to take things that are not his, according to a new book by an art consultant. Nic Iljine, 66, tells of how on a visit to the Guggenheim museum in New York in 2005 Putin was shown a piece of art, which he promptly packed up and gave to his bodyguard before leaving. Putin has pulled similar kinds of stunts before, once taking a Superbowl ring from the owner of the New England Patriots. http://www.nma.tv/russias-putin-kleptomaniac-book/
