After a recent martial-arts match between an American and a Russian, Putin, a judo enthusiast, stepped into the ring to congratulate the Russian victor, a member of his United Russia party. The audience screamed wildly, “Putin, go home!” until he did.
如果我没有看到俄罗斯的无能，我可能会怀疑这是有意让普京颜面扫地。的确没错：普京名誉受损。最近，一名美国人和一名俄罗斯人进行了武术比赛，比赛结束后，普京（柔道爱好者）进入了比赛场地，祝贺那名俄罗斯获胜者，这名俄罗斯人是统一俄罗斯党的成员。观众都大喊，“普京，走开”，直到他离去。观众似乎在说，体育运动中不应该有政治，普京应该退出政坛。
