As part of a recent interview with journalist Pavel Zarubin, Vladimir Putin made the surprise: for the first time he allowed a camera to get into his luxurious, special apartments in the Kremlin, even guiding the journalist himself.

Indeed, according to Tass, the Russian president admitted that he is staying there almost every day for the last 3 years, almost as long as the war in Ukraine has been holding.

Vladimir Putin toured Zarubin in a lounge-library, two bedrooms and an internal, private chapel.

The Russian president seems to open a golden door by saying: “Yes, this is the apartment. As you can see, it’s not far away »

Seeing a white piano in the apartment, the journalist wondered if the president had the opportunity to play sometimes. “Very rare,” Putin replied.

The video shows the imposing room of the library – living room decorated with gold -plated walls, large mirrors with golden frames, gold chandeliers and exotic plants while a large portrait of Russian Emperor Alexander III dominates a table.

The interview and tour of the Russian president’s special apartments took place for a documentary for 25 years since Putin began to rule the country.
