Վլադիմիր Պուտինը հայտնի է որպես աշխարհի ամենահզոր երկրներից մեկի առաջնորդ, որը լարված հարաբերությունների մեջ է մի շարք երկրների և միջազգային կազմակերպությունների հետ` 2014 թվականին Ղրիմի անեքսիայի և Սիրիայի նախագահ Բաշար ալ Ասադին պատերազմի ընթացքում աջակցելու համար, գրում է The Daily Mail-ը:


Նա առավել հաճախ լուսանկարվում է այլ երկրների նախագահների հետ պաշտոնական հանդիպումների, իր երկրում ռազմական ուժի ցուցադրությունների կամ ձկնորսության ու որսորդության ժամանակ:


Սակայն նրա կյանքը միշտ չէ այդպիսին եղել, և ժամանակ կար, երբ երիտասարդ Վլադիմիր Պուտինը բոլորովին այլ լուսանկարներ ուներ:


The Daily Mail-ի լուսանկարները ցույց են տալիս Պուտինին՝ մանուկ հասակից մինչև դեռահասություն, զինվորական ծառայություն և ամուսնություն:

 

 

Vladimir Putin was born in what was then the Soviet city of Leningrad - now Saint Petersburg - in 1952,

Putin grew up in poor conditions in a city still rebuilding after World War II

Beloved son: Young Vladimir, pictured with his mother Maria Putina in 1958, was his parents' third son, however his two older brothers both died before he was born

During his early teenage years, Vladimir was a member of a local street gang

Putin has himself admitted in interviews that he struggled with time management and was notoriously late for class in the morning

From the street to the ring: Putin's teacher at the time has since branded him a troublemaker, but his life took a new direction when he began practicing boxing and martial arts 

Stylish student: Putin has said that he knew in high school that he eventually wanted to work in military intelligence, and was told the route was either through serving in the army or getting a degree. When this photo was taken in 1970 he had just begun his law studies at Saint Petersburg State University, and is striking a pose in a leather jacket and brogue-style shoes

Putin is pictured in 1972 three years before finishing his law degree

Putin circa 1980

Family gathering: Putin is pictured with his father - also named Vladimir Putin - and his mother  in the summer of 1985, shortly before he was sent on an undercover mission to East Germany, working as a Russian spy under the cover of a translator. He had started learning German in high school and had a knack for the language, becoming fluent by adulthood

Fighter and a lover? From the age of 12, Putin - pictured here circa 1970 - began learning judo and sambo (a Russian form of martial arts) and at age 18, around the time when this photoghraph was taken, he was the Leningrad judo champion

Enjoying his university years: This picture shows Putin as a universitystudent during a party in Saint Petersburg, having a dance with one of his female friends, a woman reportedly named Elena

The happy couple: After a few years of engagement, Vladimir and Lyudmila married in St Petersburg - a marriage which lasted throughout his climb to the top and several years in power, before the couple divorced in 2014

Proud father: The oldest of the couple's two daughters, Mariya Putina, was born in 1985. Putin has been notoriously private throughout his political career and has tried his best to keep his two daughters away from public life

A doting dad: Putin is seen playing with Mariya after the family moved to Dresden, East Germany for his undercover KGB posting, where their second daughter was later born

A different image: The image of a loving father playing with his two young daughters, a picture taken in the late 1980s, shows a different side to notorious hardman Vladimir Putin 

Loyal man: Putin, pictured with his wife  in the mid 1980s was posted in Germany until 1990, and has himself told of how he began frantically burning all his files during the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. After the fall of East Germany, Putin returned to St Petersburg and worked at his old alma mater while also keeping a look out for potential new KGB recruits

His most beloved: Putin's ex-wife has told the President's own official website that he would spoil his two girls and that she had to take responsibility for disciplining their daughters

Sign of the times: The family poses for a photograph with the family dog, a snap believed to have been taken in the early 1990s at some point shortly before or after their return to St Petersburg
