The flight ban and the cancellation of the bank card due to the West’s sanctions against Russia have all but eliminated the opportunity for its people to go on vacation. They have also been hit hard by companies pulling out of the dictatorship, including the loss of Netflix, Starbucks, McDonald’s and many more. In a feeble attempt to convince their people that the sanctions aren’t so bad, Kremlin officials are offering Russian vacationers package holidays.
During this exciting journey, they visit the personal hotspots of Vladimir Putin himself. Upcoming travelers in the mood for a summer vacation are instead offered a trip into the heart of the Siberian wilderness.
It is advertised as the same place where infamous photos have appeared of a shirtless Putin riding a horse in temperatures as low as 0°C. The 1,200-kilometer route through Krasnoyarsk, Khakasia and Tuva also includes some of the Russian despot’s other favorite vacation spots. .
It promises to take visitors to “the places where the president likes to relax.”
However, the exact locations are not currently available. As much as £18 million is being spent by the agency on other tourist pieces, including the “Tsar’s Road” route between St. Petersburg and Moscow and “The Day Begins Here” on Sakhalin Island, Vice reported.
Russian citizens are currently banned from entering a number of European countries, including the US and the UK.
Russians’ quality of life has also declined due to the large number of global services and goods that have removed themselves from the country following Putin’s illegal invasion of Ukraine. Banks such as American Express, Visa and Mastercard have all limited or completely closed their services in Russia, while a host of hugely popular food and media companies have closed their goods there.
Meeting in Bavaria for a G7 summit, Western political leaders joked with each other about mimicking Putin’s infamous bare-chested horseback riding photo while belittling the despot.
“Jackets on? Jackets off? Shall we take off our clothes?” Mr Johnson joked as he sat down at the table with his fellow leaders of the world’s largest economies.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau replied: “Let’s wait for the picture”, to which Johnson said: “We have to show that we are tougher than Putin”.
Mr Trudeau then added: “We’re going to get the bare-chested horse show.”
Johnson can then be heard on footage saying, “We need to show them our pecs.”
European Union President Ursula von der Leyen then joined the mockery, adding: “Horse riding is the best”.
The lunch was a meeting of the leaders of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States and the European Union. Joe Biden was in attendance, but did not participate in the joke.
