Vladimir Putin strips off again


05.08.09

Vladimir Putin has once again posed for a series of holiday photographs that underline his macho credentials.

The Russian PM, 57, is pictured bare-chested while riding a horse, relaxing in camouflage combat trousers and swimming butterfly-stroke in a lake.

The latest snaps, taken during Putin's holiday in Siberia, come two years after he released pictures of himself stripped to the waist on a fishing trip.
