Leaders of former Soviet states sometimes like to portray themselves as muscular 'action men'. Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin has often been photographed, bare-chested with a knife at his belt, on hunting trips in the wilder reaches of his country (see comprehensive gallery here). The latest to do so is former Armenian president Robert Kocharyan (see photo above), whose wildlife-blasting African safari jaunt last year was recently highlighted by Armenian blogger Unzipped. There's more info about the source of the photos on the Global Voices site here.
