That Putin in Russia, So Sexy Even a Priest Lost it Went For a Kiss. Almost got Fat Lip



Earlier this week, President Vladimir Putin visited [ru] the Valaam Monastery in Karelia, one of Russia's northern most republics. While greeting the local Orthodox priests, one of them suddenly lunged forward and tried to kiss Putin's hand, though the President instantly recoiled in apparent disgust. A moment later, Putin turned back and shook his fist at the priest (which the Kremlin later explained was a joke).
The priest, since identified [ru] as Macedonia-native Father Mefodii, caused an uproar among Russian Internet users, when video footage of his attempted kiss spread rapidly online. Why did this foreign-born Orthodox monk want to kiss the hand of Russia's head of state? Was it a sign of respect? A medieval demonstration of submission? Or perhaps something had been lost in translation?
In just two days, the video already has more than 788,000 views on YouTube. (The moment of Mefodii's kiss is at 0:37.)
