Deflection of the year: Russian Olympic champion says Putin has made Russia "number one in quality of life and in every possible area"

Two-time Olympic champion Yevgeny Plushenko has bent over backwards for Kremlin dictator Vladimir Putin. The henchman of the regime of the president of the terrorist state has made a nonsense claim that Russia surpasses all other countries in terms of living standards.

Plushchenko said this in an interview with the propaganda news agency Telegraph Agency of the Soviet Union. The former figure skater, who has been organizing his own ice shows on Putin's grants since his retirement, has issued traditional narratives about the impossibility of Russia's existence without the current Kremlin leader.

"I respect and appreciate our leader, president, and commander-in-chief for fighting for Russia, and only with him do I see its prosperity. I would like to wish Vladimir good health, the same inexhaustible energy, so that Russia remains number one in terms of quality of life, sports, and all possible areas, and I would like to wish all our citizens to be united today. We have to go with one fist, shoulder to shoulder, side by side," said Plushenko.

Earlier, the president of the Russian Ski Federation, Elena Vyalbe, made an epic bow to Kremlin dictator Vladimir Putin, saying that without him, "there will be no people on earth."
