Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin is the head of the Russian Federation, a strong and vibrant man who has been needed by our state for a long time. After Vladimir Vladimirovich appeared in the political arena as the head of state, all the world media wondered where Putin was born. The biography of the president caused a lot of controversy and doubt, and at the beginning of the two thousandth years, information about his Georgian roots appeared at all.
The historical roots of President Putin
Family clan begins in the Tver province. Of course, restoring the entire family tree of any noble family in tsarist Russia is an extremely difficult matter. Many peasants constantly moved from village to village, villages died out completely due to fires or wars. And records of some of the peasants were not kept at all.
As you know, the fatherly line of Putin originates in the village of Bordino, Tver province. Later, in the XVIII century, Semyon Fedorovich, ancestor of Vladimir Vladimirovich, moved to Pominovo. His great-grandfathers, hereditary peasants, lived in the village of Pominovo, which now houses the cottage of Putin’s relatives. The village is not numerous, no more than 20 permanent residents live there, however in the summer there are many summer residents, including those from St. Petersburg.
Relocation to St. Petersburg
Vladimir Putin’s grandfather, Spiridon Ivanovich, like many peasants at that time, came to St. Petersburg to earn money. There he achieved particular success. Having studied at a young age as a cook and gained considerable experience in the then-famous Astoria restaurant, he rebuilt a house in Pominovo. Having survived the First World War there, Spiridon Ivanovich finally returned to St. Petersburg, getting a job in the dining room of the Party Commissar. Putin’s grandfather was preparing for Lenin and Stalin and probably did not suspect that his grandson would achieve such heights.
Putin's father
One of Spiridon Putin’s four children, Vladimir, was born in 1911. After serving in the Navy as a submariner, the father of the future president of Russia returned to his native village, where he married. After the wedding with the first-born Albert, Putin's parents move to St. Petersburg. There they have another son - Victor. Unfortunately, the first son of Putin died before the start of World War II.
Vladimir Vladimirovich’s father fought at the front and was seriously wounded during the defense of the Nevsky Piglet. He established himself as a brave soldier. He raised his son in severity, but he did not deprive him of love either.
Putin's mom
Maria Ivanovna Shelomova was born in 1911. Also from the hereditary "not yard". The nationality of Putin’s mother, like his father, is beyond doubt: they are both Russian.
During the Second World War, Maria Ivanovna was in besieged Leningrad. She managed to survive the blockade, but there she lost her second son, Victor, he died of diphtheria.
Vova Putin. Where was born and raised
For a long time, Maria and Vladimir lived without children, worked at the factory. At the age of 41, Maria Ivanovna became pregnant, and in 1952 her son, Vladimir, was born to her.
The city where Putin was born was then called Leningrad. For several years, the three of them lived in a communal apartment on Basque Lane.
Putin’s father insisted on playing music, and even made his son play the Amur Waves waltz on the button accordion. But young Vladimir already preferred sambo to music. His first wrestling coach had to seriously talk with Putin's parents so that they would give him free exercise. As a result, parents approved the son’s hobby, which subsequently paid off.
School friends of Vladimir Putin describe him as sociable and sociable. He had many friends, they often visited with him. The mother of Vladimir Putin was a very economic and ambitious woman. Sometimes she forced her son to change shirts three times a day. Putin's father always made the impression of a strict person, but he never allowed himself to raise his voice.
Gaining power and losing parents
His parents did not find Putin as president, but they were witnesses of the rise of his political career. They were proud of their son, but did not boast about it. A loud statement by Father Putin shortly before his death, “My son is the king!” can be called prophetic. Now this comparison is really appropriate. However, this is the only thing that leaked to the press.
Putin's parents died in 1998 and 1999. They are buried nearby, at the Serafimovsky cemetery in St. Petersburg.
Georgian mother of Putin and the beginning of provocations
On the eve of 2000, in order to undermine the image before the presidential election, someone spread through the media false information about where Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin was born. Georgian newspapers came out with sensational information: "The presidential candidate in Russia has Georgian roots, he is adopted, and his mother lives in a suburb of Tbilisi." The activities of the media in Russia were under private control. The elections were calm, and Putin was elected president.
It is not surprising that Western newspapers are full of information about where Putin was born and who his parents are. A huge number of correspondents reached Metekhi for a meeting with “Putin’s mother”. A book "The Secret Biography of the President of Russia" was published, sponsored by Chechens. Greek and German television companies even released a joint film about the life of a biological mother. However, its broadcast in Russia was banned.
Who is Vera Putin
Vera Putin is a 74-year-old resident of the Georgian village of Metekhi in the Caspian region, near Tbilisi. She claims that although she has not seen her son for many years, she is convinced that he is the president of Russia. All residents of Georgia are sure of its correctness and have no doubt at all about the veracity of the story that it tells.
Journalists became frequent guests in the house of Vera Putin, but mostly they are citizens of foreign states (rarely from Russia). She does not very willingly tell her story, fearing that they will not believe her. She is already an old woman, but all the same, her external features with the president are visible. Vera Putin also points to the undeniable similarity in gait and the same gray eyes.
She has four adult daughters, who also do not deny kinship with the president of Russia. However, they are even more reluctant to contact the press than Vera Nikolaevna. This is due primarily to fear for their lives. Women claim to have received threats from unknown Russian men.
Birth of Vladimir
Vera Nikolaevna Putin was born in the Perm region in the RSFSR. She grew up there and entered the school, where she met Platon Privalov. A non-good-natured student led a wild life and complimented the young girl. During pregnancy, Vera found out that Plato is married, and she wants to steal the son of Vera after giving birth. Then she decided to run away from him. She never saw him again.
The son was born in September 1950, since he did not have a father, Vera gave her her last name. I left for pre-diploma practice in Tashkent, left my son with my parents. Soon Vera met Georgian Georgi Osipashvili, married him and moved to Georgia with Volodya.
Separation of Faith and Vladimir
After the birth of two girls in a joint marriage, the financial situation of the Osipashvili family shook. Vladimir remained constantly deprived. Things were worn and in patches, sometimes he was also given a stick from George.
Vova was nine years old when his mother sent him to the Urals under the pressure of her husband to grandparents. But, unfortunately, they also did not need him. Grandfather attached him to a boarding school in Perm, secretly from Vera Nikolaevna. After this, the boy was adopted, and his biological mother did not try to track him down.
After many years, she saw him on TV, her mother's heart suggested that it was her son. And all the villagers came to Vera and talked about incredible similarities.
Photos and documents
Vera Nikolaevna also claims that immediately after the appearance in the world of information that Putin is the adopted son, and she is his real mother, people of Chechen nationality came to her. They turned the entire house upside down and took away all of its photographs and documents so that Presidential candidate Putin could be blackmailed. She also says that unknown Russian-speaking people came to her and tried to convince her that Putin was not her Vova. Vera Putin is convinced that all this was done in order to hide the fact of where Vladimir Putin was born. After all, the story is not the best.
Of the documents that could at least somehow confirm this version of where Vladimir Putin was born, there is only a birth certificate of Putin Vera Nikolaevna. It is now she Osipashvili, and gave her son a maiden name for her son. However, the fact that adoptive parents also turned out to be Putin, Vera Nikolaevna considers only a coincidence.
Family rebuttal
Indeed, some believed in the story of Putin’s Georgian mother. Many were greatly embarrassed by the lack of any information about Vova before he entered the first grade. Yes, and the age of his mother was too big for those times. After forty years, women rarely gave birth.
Where and when was Russian President Putin born, his communal neighbors in St. Petersburg know for sure. Uncle and aunt Putin have already moved to Ryazan. However, they very clearly remember Vova’s extract from the hospital and his childhood. In an interview, Anna Putin described in great detail some details from the life of little Vova, told how she helped him to educate and care for him, since his mother was often sick.
Documentary refutation
In the Perm region, in the archives of the orphanage, where the son of Vera Nikolaevna Putinina was once brought up, there are records of the graduation of Vladimir Platonovich Putin and his admission to GPTU No. 62 in 1968. After graduation, Vladimir Putin got a job as an assistant driller at drilling exploration office No. 7. His work colleagues confirm that this is not the president of Russia, but a man with the same name and surname. In addition, in the late 80s, this Vladimir went to work north, and the future president of Russia was already an employee of the KGB.
According to these data, the version that the current president of Russia is adopted, and his own mother lives in Georgia, is fiction. It is not clear why Western journalists were seduced by this “duck.” Check the version of where Putin was born, in which city he lived, is not difficult. It is enough just to go to the archives of educational institutions where he was brought up.
Injured mother
Vera Putin suffered the most from this situation, which journalists and interested people convinced that the president of Russia was her son. A woman sleeps with a photograph of 14-year-old Vova under a pillow that she cut from a newspaper. It is caused by great inconvenience and curious people, eager to learn and see with their own eyes where Vladimir Putin was born. These are the journalists who became famous after the publication of their articles, and the people who organize excursions to her house for crazy money, show the places where President Putin was born, where he fished and practiced sambo. But all of them could not undermine the image of Vladimir Vladimirovich.
