Russian President Vladimir Putin All Smiles As He Poses For Selfies With Excited Brides. Photos

Russian president Vladimir Putin showed his other side after posing for group selfies with a group of brides. Putin and his entourage were walking through Moscow's Red Square when the group summoned him for a photograph. To their surprise, he obliged, and the brides snapped away with the Russian leader in the middle of the group.

It is not clear why the soon-to-be newlyweds were gathered in a group, but it is likely to have been part of Moscow's birthday celebrations which took place on Saturday.
