FIFA can always be counted on to do the wrong thing.

In a statement Fifa said they would be willing to consider further actions, including expulsion from the World Cup, should “the situation not be improving rapidly”.

Uhm, maybe try watching news that isn't RT?

One of the meanings of 'hostile' is 'opposed, unfriendly, antagonistic'. So yeah, they were "hostile".

Is it just me, or does that table get longer every time we see it?

Real leader can send people to die for nothing but can't even get within 20 feet of his top advisors

What's the story there? He's scared someone will kill him?

Besides the TV, the electronics in that room are right out of the 80s or 70s.

How couldn’t he be? I can’t even imagine being in a position like this. How do you even accept a glass of water? Go to the bathroom? I’d panic my way into a breakdown.

Not that I support Putin in that long table picture, but I imagine he's keeping most people physically away from him to avoid assassination attempts - especially people who don't operate within his own security circle.

I heard that Putin visited Trump's doctor and early reports are that he's in perfect health! Athlete level.. no underlying conditions

One of the talking heads on CNN said that Putin is paranoia-level concerned about catching COVID and does this sort of thing a lot.

It seems odd that he’d allow a picture like that to get out.

I think Zelensky should challenge him to a one on one Thunderdome like fight. “Putin has fought bears! He should easily beat me!” They could feed the world with the PPV draw.

This should be a cakewalk for Putin! He has a black belt in Tae Kwon Do!

... wait, hold on...

I think they broadcast some of this stuff. He doesn't seem ashamed by it. Probably think it makes him look powerful keeping everyone 50 feet from him.
