Dictators and tyrants, as history shows, are rarely attractive, but their spouses are quite.

A selection of photographs of the sexiest wives of modern dictators was published by the publication "Infomania".

Asma al-Assad (Syria) A few years ago, people admired the wife of Syrian President Asma al-Assad. Today, in the country torn apart by the war, the first lady is very difficult.

Asma was born in London to a Muslim family. I moved to Syria only at the age of 25. Asma al-Assad dresses in European style, does not wear hijab or veil.

Even before the war began, the first lady was set as an example to follow. When she was offered to leave the country in order to protect herself and children, the woman refused.

Now Asma al-Assad is doing charity work.

Ana Paula dos Santos (Angola) The story of their meeting is similar to the story from the tabloid novel. He is the president, she is the stewardess. But nothing is impossible. Ana Paula dos Santos is now married to Jose Eduardo, President of Angola. The former model and flight attendant is 20 years younger than her husband, but this does not bother her at all.

One day the first lady spoke in the sense that her children would not study in Russian schools, t. Level of education in Angola is terrible.

Popularity of the population it is not added, but Ana Paula is not bad living and without it.

Li Sol Zhu (North Korea) In one of the most rigid dictatorships in the world - North Korea, leader Kim Jong-un somehow "suddenly" had the first lady Li Sol Zhu. Prior to this, the country's leaders never brought their wives to the light.

Lee stands out sharply among compatriots dressing manner. If the majority of women in North Korea have to wear strict suits and behave as modestly as possible, the first lady of this country allows herself to wear a skirt above the knee, heels, and even laughter at all, holding on to her husband's arm.

We must give her due - with the advent of the young wife (and, perhaps, after her persuasion), Kim Jong-un lifted the ban on wearing North Korean women's trousers, platform shoes, black tights and costume jewelery.

Chantal Biya (Cameroon) Chantal Biya, the wife of the President of Cameroon, Paul Biya, is one of the brightest first ladies of the planet. They have a huge age difference (he is 82, and she is 44), but his wife's enthusiasm probably extends to the head of state, who still looks very cheerful.

Chantal can not be forgotten because of her hairstyle. The huge shock on his head is not a wig, but her natural hair. The exotic manner of dressing does not prevent the first lady from remaining most pleasant in communicating with a person. By the way, Chantal and the wife of the French ex-president Carla Bruni friend. They were seen more than once, making purchases together in Parisian boutiques.

One Cameroonian author wrote a book about her, where, judging by Chantal's reaction, she portrayed her life as a path "from dirt to princes". He was accused of insulting the heroine and sentenced to 2 years in prison, which angered human rights defenders around the world who called him "a prisoner of conscience".

Mehriban Aliyeva (Azerbaijan) Mehriban is a representative of one of the most influential clans of the country, a doctor by education and the wife of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev. Although the Azerbaijani regime is considered authoritarian and is suspected by the ruling family in the untrustworthy use of the treasury, to the first lady, the personal attitude is the most positive. Even honorable foreign awards are available.

The 50-year-old beauty is known for her active social activities both inside the country and internationally (she heads a lot of funds, she is a goodwill ambassador of the UN, UNESCO, a number of Islamic organizations and unexpectedly - the president of the Azerbaijan Gymnastics Federation).

In 2017, she became also the first vice-president of Azerbaijan. According to the "Observer", they laughed at the network because of the photo of Russia's "first lady" - more precisely, its substitute.
