Vladimir Zhirinovsky was not a fortune teller, but he was a very erudite and prepared person, Russian President Vladimir Putin said, answering a direct line question about Zhirinovsky's "predictions" on the Middle East and the South Caucasus.
Putin admitted that the predictions of the deceased politician come true. And this is happening because he spoke on the basis of analysis, the president said.
"He loved outrageous, did everything effectively, was a well—trained person, he was an expert and made his statements based on extensive and real knowledge," Putin said.
