Everything on the topic:

The Russian invasion of Ukraine 6062

To intimidate the British politician, Putin pulled out a stack of notes in front of him and began reading them.

I first met Putin in 2006 in the Kremlin.

I was put in a rather low chair to face him.

Then he took out some notes and began to read all the information he had about me, as if to show that he knew more about me than I did about myself, Gordon told the British Telegraph.
