Brazilian soccer player admired Putin's "strength and confidence", prompting jeers from Russians
Former Russian national team player Ari, who once played in Spartak Moscow and Lokomotiv Moscow, said that people treat Russians well in Brazil. The Brazilian-born player received a Russian passport in 2018, but in early February 2022, he left for his homeland and plays there for local club Atletico Cearense.
Ari, 37, said everyone admires President Vladimir Putin in the place where he lives.
"All Brazilians speak well of him and Russian people. I haven't heard anything bad about Russia, there is only discontent with the US. Yes, everyone in our country is worried about the recent events, they have a bad attitude towards what the Americans have unleashed. Many people in Brazil want a strong and confident man to be president. Putin is such a man. Brazilians see that this man will not let anyone offend his country," Sport24. quotes Ari.

Russians laugh that he is such a "strong" president that Lukashenko decides everything for him, hinting at the Prigozhin riot.
"A strong president who never participated in debates and never gave interviews to the opposition. Truly a leader", "A strong and confident man took off when crazy cook Prigozhin decided to organize a march of justice and moved to Moscow," the fans bitch.
