   knee-jerk supporter of Russia and Putin as Zen is.

   I only know in person six Russians, but all of them are pretty cute,
   very intelligent, with a peculiar sense of humor.  :)

   Some of them still love Russia sincerely, but _none_ of them likes or
   supports Putin.  Those who love Russia are waiting for Putin's death.
   Political or not.
