Does Vladimir Putin Look Like King Louis XII?
Does Russian ruler Vladimir Putin look like 'Father of the People' King Louis XII?
If there’s one thing Russian president Vladimir Putin
knows how to do, it’s staying in the headlines. Case in point: Russia's
recent invasion of the Ukrainian peninsula Crimea. Putin's actions have
put the rest of Europe's leaders, as well as the United States, on
edge, and although economic sanctions are being discussed to punish
Russia for its internationally hostile ways, Putin has been unapologetic
thus far... Can't we all just get along?
His lookalike, King Louis XII,
was known for stirring up his own trouble as well. Louis XII waged
several wars against Italy while he served as king of France from 1498
to 1515. And while most people might think that his bellicose reputation
wouldn't go over well with the French, he was an admired leader who was
known as “The Father of the People.” Considering Putin is serving his
third term as president of Russia, he may view himself as father figure
to his people, too.
