Who is the man in the picture?

Dmitry Anatolyevich Medvedev (born 14 September 1965) is a Russian politician, currently the Prime Minister of Russia. From 2008 to 2012, Medvedev served as third President of Russia. Regarded as a more liberal politician than his predecessor Putin, Medvedev's top agenda as President was a wide-ranging modernization programme, aiming at modernizing Russia's economy and society, and lessening the country's reliance on oil and gas.

During Medvedev's tenure, Russia emerged victorious in the Russo-Georgian War, and recovered from the Great Recession. Medvedev launched an anti-corruption campaign, and initiated a substantial law enforcement reform.

Better government than in the White House these days.

Francisco Hui, you spelled his name incorrectly. His first name ends with a “y” and his last name is Medvedev. If you looked him up using your spelling, I’m sure you found an older man with a beard. 😊

Elma Griffiths, "Putin's puppet"? That would be the current president of the US. No matter what our 17 intelligence agencies tell him about the subterfuge of Russia, our Traitor-In-Chief sides with Putin. How can our president ignore US intelligence reports and favor the word of a foreign despot? #ImpeachmentNow #NotMyPresident #NeverWas #NeverWillBe

After I immediately ruled out Putin, I clicked on majority vote and went with the one with the most votes.

Francisco Hui, yes, but the person in this picture is identified as Dmitry Medvedev, not Dmitri Mendeleev. Close, but not quite the same name or person.

ninakamwene, me too! :-)

He has been in the news recently, and I think I saw a picture of him. Doesn't look as severe and cunning as Vladdy boy, but also a little more like someone in administration, sitting in, say, the Principal's office.
