Russian President Vladimir Putin is being mocked online for flubbing the name of the president of Kazakhstan during a formal meeting with the ally.
-snip-
videos posted on social media have centered on Putin, who has been a focus of controversy regarding his purported health issues, and his mispronunciation of Tokayev's name.
Putin, surrounded by delegates at a large table and broadcast on Russian television, can be seen stuttering during introductory remarks.
"Putin had a hard time pronouncing the name of the President of Kazakhstan," wrote Anton Gerashchenko, adviser to Ukraine's minister of internal affairs, on X, formerly Twitter. "This is not the first time he misspoke the name of a country's leader.
"Lack of respect or his new cheeks influencing Putin's enunciation?"
The comment regarding Putin's cheeks is related to questions about his facial features prompted by a video posted online Wednesday.
Online commenters and internet sleuths have weighed in on the video, likely recorded a day or more before Putin's landing at the airport in Astana, seeming to show puffed-up cheeks from fillers or otherwise.

It’s not exactly a 5 letter name...
Kassym-Jomart Tokayev
I would likely flub it. But did he get his pronouns right?
They have to have something positive to talk about. At least they feel it is positive. However, the next to follow may be much worse. Like those who wanted anyone but Trump & got Biden, are not regretting that exchange, big time.

In regard to Snake Island the FU audio was real, there was nothing terrible about the reporting.
On the very first day Ukraine was attacked and Russia launched its war, the Russians shelled and attacked Snake island, and communication was lost, the 13 border guards were presumed dead.
Two days later the Ukrainian Border Guard reported that they may have been captured alive, and then on the 4th day the Ukrainian Navy reported that they had been captured alive.
In the first 2 days of a war that is pretty good intelligence, and government reporting for an overrun island manned by 13 men.
Russian officials were left scrambling for translation devices after President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev began his remarks during Vladimir Putin’s visit to the central Asian country.
This is an encapsulation of the tables turned in the Kazakhstan-Russia relations: President of Kazakhstan pulls a power move and opens his speech to the visiting Russian delegation headed by Putin speaking Kazakh.

It was hilarious when Tokayev started speaking Kazak instead of Russian.

Dude. This obsession of yours is unhealthy.
I know mentally ill people are all the rage these day because Democrats love that stuff, but seriously, seek help.
Go outside, get some fresh air, read a book that has nothing to do with Putin or Ukraine or war, take a cooking class, but, as William Shatner once said in a hilarious SNL bit, “Get a life.”

"О, какое прекрасное утро,
О, какой чудесный день.
У меня есть радостное чувство,
Я всё победил во Юкрайн..." .
Translation....
Oh what a beautiful morning
Oh what a beautiful day
I've got a beautiful feeling
Everything's going my way [at least in "ukraine"...]
Well, I can’t pronounce either.
“shocked Kremlin officials when he opened his speech in his native Kazakh, rather than Russian.”
A Kazakh speaking Kazakh....Hmmmm. Is there any nothingburger you can’t turn into agitprop?
Bravo
A Kazakh speaking Kazakh....Hmmmm. Is there any nothingburger you can’t turn into agitprop?Putin instructively paused waiting for him to be thrown from a window.
Nice personal attack.
Is there nothing you won't be a crybaby for your God Putin about?
So - did he end up saying, “You, know, the thing.” ????
