October 7 Vladimir Putin celebrates his birthday. President of Russia turned 64 of the year.

Below are the most vivid phrases that have ever been uttered by Putin.

Wet in the toilet

“We will pursue terrorists everywhere: at the airport - at the airport, which means, excuse me, if we catch them in the toilet - we will soak them in the toilet, in the end. That’s it, the issue is finally closed,” Putin said back in September 1999, while still the head of the government of the Russian Federation.

She drowned

When asked by CNN anchor Larry King in September 2000 what happened to the Russian submarine Kursk, Putin said curtly: “It sank.”

The snow will be

“On the coast you can enjoy a beautiful spring day, while in the mountains it is real winter. I skied there six or seven weeks ago, and I know that real snow is guaranteed,” Putin said, speaking in July 2007 at the official presentation of Sochi in Guatemala as a candidate for the 2014 Winter Olympics.

Slave on galleys

“I am not ashamed of the citizens who voted for me twice, electing me to the post of President of the Russian Federation. All these eight years I worked like a galley slave, from morning to night, and did it with full dedication,” Putin said in February 2008 at a “big” press conference in the Kremlin.

Watch here

“You need to look here! And listen to what I say! And if you’re not interested, then please…” the president said, addressing the officials chatting at a meeting of the Presidium of the State Council and the Security Council in November 2003.

Circumcision

“If you are ready to become the most radical Islamist and are ready to circumcise yourself, I invite you to Moscow. I will recommend doing the operation in such a way that nothing will grow back on you,” Putin said in November 2002 after the Russia-EU summit in response to a journalist’s statement that Russia was suppressing freedom in Chechnya.

Like a swiss watch

“I would like the government in Moscow, regional authorities and federal authorities in the territories of the Russian Federation, like Swiss watches, to thresh without ceasing, right up to the elections and immediately after the elections, between March and May 2008,” he said last September at a meeting with participants of the Valdai International Discussion Club in Sochi.

Also overheard

“In relations with representatives of the press, I can say that we joked when I worked in a completely different organization. They were sent to spy, and they eavesdrop. It’s not nice,” he said, answering questions during a “direct line” with Russians in October 2006 about the publication of one of his statements, which was not intended for the press.

It's not easy for Bush

“There are many bosses, but the final word belongs to the head of state. This, of course, is a difficult moral burden... This applies to the head of any state - both small and large. Do you think it’s easy for Bush?” - he asked rhetorically, answering questions from journalists at a “big” press conference in February.

Donkey ears

“We will not negotiate (with the Baltic countries) on the platform of any territorial claims. They won’t get the Pytalovsky district, but the ears of a dead donkey,” Putin said at a meeting with the Komsomolskaya Pravda staff in May 2005, speaking about Latvia’s claims to the Pytalovsky district.

Chewing snot

“Are we going to chew snot here for years? We've been talking about this topic for how long - since 99? Almost nothing happens, only some conversations. All this is being pushed there, non-stop, in huge quantities. And nothing has been done to stimulate processing in Russia. I have drawn the government’s attention to this issue several times already, and it’s all just talk. I understand what this is connected with, and you understand: it is connected with lobbying of exporters. They think about their economic interests, and you should think about the interests of the Russian people,” he said in March 2006 at a meeting with government members.

Smelly "Khrushchev"

“Work on the issue of changing the standards for the construction of residential buildings, primarily residential buildings, for military personnel, and let’s start with the Far East. “I draw your attention to this and want this to be done quickly and worthy of Russian officers, so that our people stop living in these stinking Khrushchev buildings,” Putin said last November at a meeting with the leadership of the armed forces.

White dwarf

“Lev Matveevich, at my request, recently read a series of lectures for me and for my colleagues from among the permanent members of the Security Council on the problems of the origin of the Universe, on planetary research, on research of the Sun, the interaction of the Sun, Earth and other planets. Very interesting and useful... Lev Matveevich told many interesting things, including that in seven billion years the Sun will cease to exist and turn into some kind of white dwarf. This prospect is very upsetting, although it is distant,” he admitted at a meeting of the State Council Presidium in Kaluga on space in March last year.

Sexual signs

“If grandma had certain gender characteristics, she would be grandpa. Politics does not tolerate the subjunctive mood,” he said, answering a question about the possibility of sanctions against Iran at a meeting in June 2006 with the heads of the leading news agencies of the GXNUMX countries.

For one place

“Everyone must understand for themselves once and for all: we must always obey the law, and not just when we are seized for one place,” Putin said in an interview with Italian media in November 2003, talking about the YUKOS case.

Portraits on eggs

Asked at a press conference in June 2002 to comment on the emerging portraits of the president on Easter eggs, he said: “Do they paint on eggs? I don’t know what they draw on the eggs, I haven’t seen it.”

Last sex

“They asked when I started having sex,” Putin said, speaking about an Internet conference in July 2006. “So when?” - the journalists asked. "I do not remember. I remember exactly the last time I did this. I can determine it to the minute,” he replied.

Above all head

“I think that at least a statesman must have a head. And in order to build interstate relations, you need to be guided not by emotions, but by the fundamental interests of your countries,” Putin said in response to a request at a “big” press conference in February to comment on Hillary Clinton’s statement that he has no soul.

A real man

Answering a journalist’s question at a press conference in the Kremlin in December 2004 whether there are problems with freedom of speech in Russia, and where there are more of them, in the capital or in the regions, Putin recalled a quote from the film: “In a famous Italian film there is such a phrase - “a real man should always try, and a real woman should always resist.” He invited the media to act in accordance with this phrase.

There is land

At a “big” press conference in the Kremlin, when asked by a Russian journalist about a possible and frightening denomination, Putin snapped: “Yes, they are all lying!” “What do you want? So that I can eat dirt from a pot of flowers and swear on blood?” — Putin responded to the journalist’s request to give guarantees that there would be no denomination.

Smeared on pieces of paper

“As for various rumors about my financial status, I looked at some papers on this matter. This is just chatter that has nothing to be discussed. Nonsense,” Putin said at a “big” press conference, answering a question from a correspondent of one of the Western agencies about the sources of the Russian President’s wealth, which the journalist called the largest in Europe. “Everyone picked it out of their nose and smeared it on their papers,” the president added to the laughter of the audience.

Put on grants

“The so-called foreign funds work in schools. They’ve just been roaming around schools in the Russian Federation for many years under the guise of supporting talented youth. In fact, it’s like being sucked out with a vacuum cleaner. They take applicants straight from school, put them on grants and take them away,” Putin said in 2015.
