You're free to go on Russian Tass, Ria, etc. Half of the "news" is literally made up bullshit, but that's their perspective...

Oh yeah... He knew Merkel had a fear of dogs, so he brought one in, just to make her look weak: https://www.businessinsider.com/putin-merkel-meeting-dog-2017-7

There's 4 from this episode and a bunch from other Putin Frontline docs. They're on Frontline's YouTube channel. *Edit: And a 5th & possibly 6th interview.

There are at least 3 interviews up! Not sure if that's your thing, but I like them.

Putin studied Bush before they met. He knew Bush was a recent "Born Again" Christian, so Putin made up a stupid story about how a cross his grandmother gave him survived through a fire (and possibly war, but I can't remember). And Bush fell for it.

It's pretty good. It sums up how they (along with many others) were duped by Putin. It didn't seem like it was ~54 minutes, it felt much shorter, but I don't know why.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander, I heard. If Russia doesn't like it, then they probably shouldn't have invaded another country.

No, Russians who have fled to Turkey and other countries can still access their RU banks. I'm not a SWIFT expert, but I've read Russians saying they still can.

Good. Ban them from SWIFT too. Steam (game company) has banned Russian payments. People on Russia online newspapers (RIA, translated, I don't speak Russian) are pissed.
