Steven Seagal on Putin's Crimea actions: Actor defends his 'brother'
Steven Seagal is defending Putin's actions in Crimea. The
actor is best known for his action movies, but he has made a friend out of the
Russian president. He even calls Vladimir Putin his 'brother.' Putin has
received a lot of heat for his actions in Crimea. According to Huffington Post
UK on March 27, Seagal has now spoken out in defense of the moves Putin has
made in recent weeks. Seagal said the following:
"[Putin's] desire to
protect the Russian-speaking people of Crimea, his assets, and the Russian
Black Sea military base in Sevastopol … is very reasonable."
The actor has also called Putin 'one of the greatest world
leaders.' This is definitely an odd couple. A friendship has developed between
the action star and the leader though. This is not the first time Seagal has
made comments about Russia. He spoke about the country and Putin in another
interview last year.
Seagal is currently filming a movie in Romania. The actor
has remained in the spotlight in recent years, but these comments about the
situation in Crimea and Putin have earned him new attention. Is it the type of
attention he wants? Many were surprised by his words, and he even earned a
mention on Fox News on Wednesday night for his defense of Putin.
