Okay bro.. though i won't talk about the 217 people charged with federal level felony out of the 230 ppl arrested in the US during the trump protest in one state which is your backyard.. But we cool
If People were charged with felony. Then you need to look up for what you have to do before you are charged with felony. They were not charged just for protesting against a sitting president as we see in Russia. If you hi jack a protest and you start physically attacking people that don’t share your view or destroying public property or resorting to looting in the course of your protest, that’s committing felony. So not because they were protesting. People protest everyday. I mean everyday in the US. From one man protest holding a placard while standing at major road junctions showing his placard to motorists passing by to crowd gathering on the streets protesting so far the don’t resort to violence. No police disperses them. Police will only escort them to make sure it’s peaceful and not hijacked by rugs. That’s what a civil society does. People protest here everyday even over or stuff. Yes it’s there right. No one go about arresting them. But in Russia, you dire not abuse Putin. That’s a recipe for arrest. You know how many times people abuse Trump?

Are you saying capitalism is flawless? i can start naming one million and one things the United states do wrongly and the fact that protesters were clamped down on in Russia will look like a child's play.

There is no perfection anywhere in the world. My point is Russia needs to step up in terms of assuring and protecting its citizens' human rights and media free speech without fear of arrest by putin.

lol......Over 200 Russians mercenaries were killed recently in Syria by the US force...Russia dares not to respond.
I am sure you will leave for US without farewell to family members.......and I am sure Russia isn't an option for you.

If not for America, you wouldn't have access to internet. What has Russia given the world?

Mention one Russian global company that has impacted the world. After the Korean war of 1953, North Korea aligned with China and partly with Russia, South Korea aligned with US and the west with US having thousands of soldiers in South Korea......This is 2018, South Korea has given the world Samsung, LG, Hyundai, Kia, Daewoo and many more....they live in prosperity and abundance. But North Korea has become a hell on earth........Give it to the Americans.........If you know the story of world war 1 & 2, you will appreciate the roles US has played in maintaining peace in the world. If not for the US, nations like China and Russia would have probably come here to pick to work in farms and factories in their countries.
my brother... Till tomorrow power in the hands of USA is far better than China and Russia... Those people are real conscienceless

65-year-old Vladimir Putin and former KGB officer, today the 7th of May 2018 began his 4th term and another six years as Russia's president .

Today also marks the unveiling of his new russian-made black limousine , codenamed Kortezh, which was used for the short distance from his office to the Kremlin hall for the inauguration.

The front view of the heavily armored limo look so much like a Rolls-Royce Phantom while the luxurious Bentley Mulsanne comes to mind when viewed from the back.The headlights is very similar to Chrysler 300's.





This means that the highly favored German made  Mercedes-Benz S 600 Guard Pullman is officially out as the russian state car.

This is an obvious response from Russia to overcome western sanctions by reducing its dependence on imported goods and technology.

The powertrain, is a rumoured twin-turbocharged V12 with 850 horsepower i.e 634 kilowatts jointly developed by Porsche and Bosch with an assistance from Moscow-based Central Scientific Research Automobile & Engine Institute (NAMI). It has a Russian-designed nine-speed automatic gearbox. 

About 200 of the new cars will be used in russian state’s convoys designed as minivan, Sport Utility Vehicles and smaller sedan. Civilians versions for wealthy Russians would also be made.

Lol Russia is a very corrupt country just like Nigeria, the only difference is they're thriving and progressing despite the corruption
Compared to Nigeria, Russia is thriving but compared with the Western countries, Russia is performing below par. California as a State in America has a better GDP than Russia as a country. Enough said.

Listen up people! Before you come here with your myopic views & start yapping and calling Putin a dictator. You should first of all travel to "Western Germany" & ask Angela Merkel why she is also still in office for her 4th term. Thank you!

So ZIL eventually lost out.

Soviet leaders were transported in ZIL limousines since the era of Josef Stalin. Stalin gave a ZIL limousine to Chairman Mao of China and the Chinese took it apart, reversed engineered it and it became the inspiration for the Chinese Red Flag limousine.

A ZIL limousine once held the Guinness World Record for the largest car in the world.

The ZIL-41047, which was produced from 1985 - 2002, was the last ZIL limousine to serve as the Russian number one state car. Gorbachev used it during his famous summits with Ronald Reagan.

President Boris Yeltsin preferred Mercedes Benz S Class cars to ZIL limousines and the S Class became the number one state car in Russia. However, ZIL cars were still used for some state occasions, e.g. the defence minister was driven in an open top ZIL during national day parades.

The ZIL company tried to entice President Putin into using a ZIL as his official car by making a brand new purpose built limousine for him in 2013. However, Putin didn't really like the car. The new car is called the ZIL-4112.

1) ZIL 41047 (1985-2002)

2) 41047

3) 41047

4) ZIL-4112 (2012)

The ZIL and the Lincoln Continental.

The two most powerful men in the world met in a series of ground breaking summits in 1985 and 1986. That was when the friendship between President Ronald Reagan of the United States and Mikhail Gorbachev of the Soviet Union began.

I remember the Reykjavik summit in 1986 and I was fascinated by the presidential limousines. Of course both countries flew their respective presidential limousines to Iceland. The footage I saw back then showed Reagan arriving the meeting point in his Lincoln Continental as his Secret Service bodyguards walked beside the limo. Then Gorby arrived in his ZIL 41047 with his KGB bodyguards walking beside the limo. Gorby left the meeting point first and then Reagan left (his Secret Service guards were running beside the limo).

Unfortunately the footage of the Reykjavik Summit that I found on YouTube does not have a clear shot of the moment when both leaders left the meeting point (it looks like the cameraman was hiding from the Secret Service and KGB), so I am first going to post a video of their series of meetings in Geneva in 1985. You can clearly see the limousines in that video
