A blogger, Kungurov who first published the pictures after
getting hold of them from a contact in Russia’s Ministry of Defence fumed:
“Our self-proclaimed Tsar has decided to give himself a gift on his 15th
anniversary of assuming the crown by whipping his slaves into paying for two luxurious
IL-96 airliners for him,” he wrote as Russians reacted.
