Mr. Reagan, Meet Mr. Putin
Hey! Who's that dour-looking dude on the left?
There's
a 20-year-old photo making the rounds on the tubes showing U.S.
President Ronald Reagan taking a stroll through Red Square during his
May 1988 visit to Moscow.
In the photo, Reagan was approached
by a group of "tourists" -- who were in reality KGB members and their
families -- who asked him about human rights in the United States.
Reagan's
photographer, Pete Souza, told NPR in January that he has confirmed
that the blonde-haired man in the striped shirt on the left was none
other than Vladimir Putin, then a KGB colonel.
You can listen
to Souza, who is now U.S. President Barack Obama's official
photographer, talk about the photo by clicking the audio link in the
NPR story here.
And then decide for yourself whether it really is Putin.
UPDATE: Compare with photos of young Putin and Putin with family.
