18.04.2008 14:05

"В том, что вы сказали, - ни одного слова правды ", - сказал Владимир Путин на совместной с Сильвио Берлускони пресс-конференции, отвечая на вопрос журналистки о том, что он якобы собирается сыграть свадьбу с российской гимнасткой Алиной Кабаевой.

"Вы упомянули статью в одной из наших бульварных газет, где упоминается Алина Кабаева - олимпийская чемпионка по гимнастике и упоминается телеведущая Екатерина Андреева. В других публикациях подобного рода упоминаются другие красивые молодые девушки и женщины, и думаю не будет неожиданным, если я скажу, они все мне нравятся. И все российские женщины", - продолжил Путин.

"Я лично считаю, что наши российские женщины - самые талантливые и самые красивые. Конкуренцию им могут составить только итальянки", - продолжил российский президент.

"Мне конечно известна избитая фраза, что политики живут в стеклянном доме, и общество вправе знать, как живут люди, которые занимаются публичной деятельностью, но и в этом случае существуют какие-то ограничения. Есть частная жизнь, в которую нельзя вмешиваться", - заявил Владимир Путин.

Российский президент отметил, что Россия в последние годы демонстрирует быстрый экономический рост, сокращается число людей, живущих за чертой бедности, реальные доходы граждан растут, "никто не задает вопросов про Чечню".

"Я всегда плохо относился к тем, кто с каким-то гриппозным носом и со своими эротическими фантазиями лезет в чужую жизнь", - сказал Путин. "Но, если в связи с отсутствием интересных тем, кто-то хочет покопаться в личной жизни, то и тут надо соблюдать определенные приличия", - заключил он.

  1. This is how babelfish translates it.


    You mentioned article in one of our tabloids, where is mentioned Alina kabayeva - Olympic champion of the gymnastics and Ekaterina Andreev's tele-leading is mentioned. In similar other publications other beautiful young girls and women are mentioned, and I think not it will be unexpected, if I say, they everyone me pleases itself. And all Russian women ", continued Putin. "I personally consider that our Russian women - most talented and most beautiful. Competition by it can compose only Italians ", continued the Russian President. "to me is certainly known the rubber stamp, that policy they live in the glass house, and it is right to know society, as people, which deal with public activity, live, but also in this case there are some limitations. There is the particular life, in which it cannot be interfere ", stated Vladimir Putin. The Russian President noted that Russia in recent years demonstrates rapid economic increase, the number of people, which live after the feature of poverty, is decreased, the real incomes of citizens grow, "no one assigns questions about Chechnya". "4 it always badly related to those, who with some influenza nose and with his erotic fantasies climbs into the strange life", said Putin. "but, if in connection with the absence of interesting themes, someone wants to pokopat'sya in the personal life, then it is here necessary to soblyudat' the specific decency", it concluded.

  2. While awaiting the official translation may I say that you have a very nice new header photo. Probably been up there for ages but I just noticed it.

  3. The translator gives a fair indication and thank you Nunyaa.

    All I'll do is let my friend run quickly over the original to pick up on any minor points but it's fairly clear he is neither denying nor confirming here.

    JMB - no, you're right - it is new and is one of the landmarks of my home town.

    Age is but a number, but realistically and long term, if they was to get together, what is the bet it don't last. What has he got that she could possibly want, status! On the other hand she has everything he wants, silly old fart.

  6. A lot of people are saying the opposite - that he has everything she wants - money, status, power, secutiy but that she offers very little apart form a bit of sex now and then when he's home from abroad. :)

    She's not known for her mental prowess.

    Will follow those links.

  7. What has he got that she could possibly want, status!

    That is exactly what I said. I know of a 46 year old woman who married her lover once he turned 18 this year, having had a relationship with him well before that age. It be like marrying a kid, and then is he going to stick around when she is much older, frail and needs assistance with feeding and bathing and toileting? I think not. This thing with Putin is the same. Remember Anna Nicole?
