Komsomolskaya Pravda: “Vladimir Putin told Komsomolskaya Pravda after buying ice cream: ‘I just like the ice cream at the MAKS air show’”
After Vladimir Putin visited pavilions at MAKS-2011, he bought some ice cream – a tradition of his.
"How much for an ice cream," Vladimir Putin asked the vendor, a young man. Just in case, the prime minister took three hundred rouble banknotes out of his pocket.
The answer was 60 roubles. The prime minister ate the ice cream and continued on his way.
"Mr Putin, why do you always buy ice cream at the MAKS air show?" I asked the prime minister. He shrugged his shoulders.
"Maybe there is some secret why it has become a tradition?" I asked Putin another question.
"There's no secret. I just like the ice cream at MAKS," Putin answered.
