Putin trying to figure out how to get a bigger cult of personality?

Without actually needing a cult or personality.

I had to read the story to try and make sense of the headline. TLDR: yes, it’s as ridiculous as it sounds.

This is the best example of a world leader brown-nosing that I’ve seen in a while. For Putin, though, this qualifies as dignified behavior.
