      Her story behind this is so funny too. She’s claims she was already sitting there, when Putin and a handler just walked up and sat down. No one said anything because no one spoke Russian (though Putin speaks English and German, and apparently didn’t have a translater handy at this international event). Since no one could talk, they awkwardly got up after a while and walked off!

      Sounds extremely plausible and defensible to me, don’t see what people are so hung up about! /s

        Not to mention it was an event in celebration of Russian TV network RT, the blatantly propagandist government news outlet.

        Even without Putin at the table, WTF is she doing there?

      I love this picture. She’s either there because she’s in the social circles to be there or she’s there in violation of laws about private citizens conducting diplomacy.

      I need that goose to chase her around with this question.
