The game of Russian President Vladimir Putin in hockey, as well as other events where he acts as a "macho", are explained by the fact that "not a very young president needs moral support".

This opinion was expressed to the "Observer" by the Russian opposition politician Konstantin Borovoi.

Commenting on Putin's participation in the game for the "Legends of Hockey" team, the politician said: "Such events mean that a not-so-young president needs the moral support that the participants in this performance give him. They do not call this propaganda campaign, but it is known that for him this is a very important factor - to be "macho". Above him, the whole world is mocked, portraying him nude to the waist. For him it is important ".

"The Russian voter likes these" macho "?" - inquired the "Observer". "In any case, this made a strong impression on the voters," Borovoy said..

In this context, he recalled the propaganda campaign "I Want a Child from Putin".

"Then I had a feeling that it was stopped precisely because there were too close associations with Hitler, from which all the Germans wanted to have a child. But then there was no cloning technology, otherwise they would have achieved it, "the oppositionist said..
