I like Putin, rather him that that drunk Yeltsin. I like a nice strong Russia it keeps Europe in balance.

Does anyone have any details on these properties? Are any of them former Romanov or Noble properties? Apart from Constantine palace I'm not really familiar with any of them.

There is also one in our aound St Petersburg, but I forget what it is called. Near Peterhoff .At least that is what I I was told. As recall, it was used for the G8 conference a few years ago. It has seperate vilas for visiting dignitaries. Lovely pocation and gardens.

Hi Robert,
That would be Strelna... Putin had it refurbished for the G8 conference and to use as his "home" when visiting SP...
But, I don't think he uses it now.
In 2008, our excurtion bus drove past it on the way to Peterhof; and it looks quite nice and finely put together.
