YEAR2014-RUSSIA-PUTIN-POLITICS-FILES
TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY KARIM TALBI AND OLGA ROTENBERG
(FILES) A file picture taken on May 10, 2014 shows Russian President Vladimir Putin (R) as he reacts as he plays hockey during the Gala match between amateur hockey players and professional stars of Russian hockey at the Night ice hockey league tournament in Sochi. For years he played the part of the frosty pragmatist, doggedly set on restoring pride and power to a once-great superpower. Putin's approval ratings soared to 90 percent as he oversaw an outpouring of nationalistic pride long buried under the humiliation of the Cold War's conclusion. Then, on February 27 2014, President Vladimir went rogue.
